Well, this is most assuredly the tastiest week Virtual Bastion has had in a long time. It’s now the Duck’s turn to write about just a handful of the many video game foods I’d like to try. I’ve narrowed it down to several sections, Sides, Meals, and Desserts, with three entries each. Because without some…

Do It Yourself: Animal Crossing New Horizons vs Minecraft
Despite having plenty to play at the moment, I’ve recently found myself thinking about returning to either Animal Crossing: New Horizons or Minecraft. There’s just something about building your own stuff in games I just can’t help but find compelling (when it’s done well), so it’s hard to stay away from those sorts of games…
Spooptober: Creepy Villagers in Animal Crossing
As most of us know, Animal Crossing is a cute and relaxing life sim where you decorate your cute little house, befriend cute animal villagers, buy cute clothes, and do all manner of other cute things. Being such a cute and adorable game, nothing ever weird or scary ever happens at all. For example, there…
Cheeky Charlatans: Crazy Redd
When first started discussing gaming’s greatest mischief makers, Redd the Fox was one of the first characters to pop into my mind. It’s not so much that he’s done anything terribly bad (that we know of), but rather his obvious shifty attitude. This is a dude who runs his business out of back alleys, tents…
Animal Crossing is Kind of Amazing
The rain is already back in my (current) part of the world, and rain always gets me thinking about Animal Crossing. Well, not Animal Crossing itself, but the rainy day theme from the original game. I can’t help but wander back to it whenever the first rain of the year shows up, and that’s usually…
Listmas 2020: The Duck’s Top Games from 2020
The Duck played a whole bunch of games this year, partly thanks to some really good sales, allowing me to download a good deal of digital games for sometimes as low as $5 or even $2! Now that’s one heck of a deal! Since I didn’t exactly buy that many games that were actually released…
Listmas 2020: Making a Merry In-Game Christmas
Video game Christmas events come in all kinds of flavors. Some are sweet and savory, dripping in fun and Christmas cheer. Others though…others are bland and chalky, putting forth the barest effort and only marginally acknowledging that there’s something to celebrate. While there’s definitely no single recipe for a great Christmas event, I believe there…
Listmas 2020: The Duck’s Ideal Christmas Event
Christmas is nearly here, and with it, Toy Day should soon become available in Animal Crossing: New Horizons. While we know a few details about this upcoming event, I wanted to list what would make for my ideal Christmas event.
Listmas 2020: The Duck’s Top 6 Favorite Bonus Content
With Christmas almost upon us, it might be nice to list some of our favorite gaming “gifts”, extra bonus content that the game developers didn’t have to include, but did anyway. From bonus worlds to cut content to a secret island, this post discusses the Duck’s personal favorite bonuses found in video games!
Uncanny Accounts: Gyroids Hold the Souls of the Deceased
If you’re a fellow Animal Crossing fan, odds are you enjoy collecting gyroids. In fact, there are over 100 different kinds, and they can be found in each game in the series (aside from New Horizons; we’re still waiting on that update, Nintendo). They are a rather fun and interesting collectible due to how unique…
