While my perfect vacation would normally be spent playing video games at home, many people say I need to get out of the house more. Well, I’d be more than happy to set foot in the great outdoors if I could visit some of the locations from my favorite video games. And so, to appease…

Cheeky Charlatans: Swaine
I’ve actually written about Swaine before on my own blog, but when we decided on the topic of “playfully mischievous characters” for the month of April, I couldn’t help but revisit my favorite character from Ni no Kuni, the snarky thief Swaine. Funnily enough, my original feelings for Swaine were actually far from positive because,…
Day 22: A Game Sequel Which Disappointed You
As I slowly inch my way forward through the 30 days’ worth of video game topics, I arrive upon a pretty easy one, a game sequel which disappointed me. One game in particular springs to mind, but since it is such an obvious choice, I also wanted to briefly discuss one of the biggest crimes…
Ni no Kuni II: A Review
Christmas is always the best time for catching up on all the games I missed, and one such game that I was able to obtain thanks to Christmas of 2018 was Ni no Kuni II: Revenant Kingdom. Though I was a big fan of the first game on the PS3, I’ll admit I was rather…
In Case You Missed it, There’s a Power Rangers Fighting Game in the Works!

Trusting the Story
Occasionally, I like to look through the list of games on current or recent consoles to see if there are any obscure games that sound interesting. Back when the Wii was still part of the “current” category of consoles, I came upon a game called Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon. If you have…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 19
This wasn’t a particularly fun location to record. You see, there were, well, a lot of ladders. And Seto clinbs up and down them…very slowly. So I would like to revise this video’s title. A more accurate description is: Fragile Dreams: Fun With Ladders. Without the fun. At least you have to admit it’s not…
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 18
Today in Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon, we continue to explore the subterranean tunnels. And I do battle with…a star-nosed mole. You heard me right. Intrigued? I bet you are.
Youtube Time: The Duck Plays: Fragile Dreams-Part 17
Today in Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon, I explore more of the underground facility. This place is pretty huge and rather spooky. The plot might also resurface in this video, as well, which is good. I missed you, plot.
