Now that Tears of the Kingdom has been blessing our lives for roughly a month, I thought I’d return with another post to talk about my experiences with this truly massive game. In that time, I’ve made a whole lot of progress, and so I’ll only be able to discuss the highlights of my adventure,…

Greak: Memories of Azur: Demo Review
Greak: Memories of Azur is a fast-paced, 2D side-scroller that follows the story of three siblings who are trying to escape from their homeland during the Urlag invasion. In a manner similar to Trine and The Lost Vikings, you can eventually control all three characters, though the demo covers two, Greak and his sister Adara. …
Kaze and the Wild Masks is the Retro DKC Sequel We’ve Been Waiting For
While Kaze and the Wild Masks may have been released in 2021, this 2D platformer has a lot more in common with retro classics from the SNES era, most notably the Donkey Kong Country trilogy from the mid-90’s. Featuring beautiful pixel art and a soundtrack that already feels nostalgic, Kaze must save her friend Hogo…
Arms: Demo Review
Does anyone really remember Arms anymore? You know, that fighting game from 2017 where everyone had super stretchy arms? Considering Super Smash Bros is literally the only fighting series that I care to play, Arms was never a particular priority for me, even though I had to admit that I was somewhat intrigued by the…
Mamma Mia! The Super Mario Bros Movie Was Amazing!
Although I didn’t see it in theaters, the Duck recently got to see The Super Mario Bros Movie on Amazon! Buying recent releases without having seen them prior has, admittedly, backfired more times than not (I’m looking at you, Wreck-It-Ralph 2), but I had been hearing great things about Mario’s first animated movie (I’m aware…

An older sibling gets tired of their annoying younger brother and wishes they would disappear, only to immediately set out to rescue said…
The Duck’s First Week with Tears of the Kingdom
Well, The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom was released just over a week ago. While I’m usually behind most people when it comes to playing new games, you’ll typically find me at the game store on the release date of any new entry into the Zelda franchise. I’ve now been playing this game…
Monopoly for Nintendo Switch: Demo Review
Seeing as I had recently gotten back into playing traditional board games, I was curious to try out the Nintendo Switch version of the most classic board game of all, Monopoly. Surely most people are familiar with this game, where you buy property, try to get a monopoly by owning all property of a single…
The Gardens Between: A Beautiful Tale of Friendship
The Gardens Between is a puzzle game about two friends, Arina and Frendt, who find themselves on a series of islands where time flows in both directions. Each island represents the pair’s memories of their time spent together, and the two must work as a team to reach the top of each island, all culminating…
Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics: Demo Review
Considering Mother Duck and I have accumulated a small collection of physical games to play in recent months, I thought it would also be fun to try out a digital collection of physical games called Clubhouse Games: 51 Worldwide Classics for the Switch. While the full game has, well, 51 games, the demo contains four,…
