One of my gaming goals for 2021 is to replay Mass Effect: Andromeda. Can’t say it’s a lofty goal, but with the Mass Effect Legendary Edition due out later this year, rather than tread through the original trilogy for the umpteenth time, I figured I’d cast fresh eyes over Andromeda‘s post-Commander Shepard universe instead. It’s…

SCP: Containment Breach – A Unique Horror Experience
The horror genre is fairly sparse in the Duck’s household, so as I pondered the topic of my final Spooktober post, I had very few options available to me. It then occurred to me that I have never written about the spooky PC game, SCP: Containment Breach, a truly unique horror experience! So let’s rectify…
Top 5 FNAF Fan Games
One can’t really talk about horror games these days without being reminded of Five Nights at Freddy’s. Love it or hate it, it can’t be denied that this series has spawned an immense popularity, with an increasingly confusing lore, lots and lots of merchandise, and let’s not forget…fan games! While the Five Nights at insert…
Unforgettable: The Interactive Intro of Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis
When I first started playing video games in earnest, words like “Atari” and “arcade” were commonplace. “Nintendo” and “Mario” soon followed, and with them came a chasm-like leap in video game technology. After spending countless hours with relatively simple (but not simplistic) games like Pole Position and Defender, I was utterly wowed by what would…
A New Take on Turok
Flying under the indie radar, there’s a new Turok game in the wings. It’s called Turok: Escape from Lost Valley, and it is…well, what is it? Its description reads thusly: Turok: Escape from Lost Valley is a third-person action/adventure game where the player is Turok, trying to find a way back home. The player explores…
Close to the Sun Looks a Lot Like BioShock, and I’m Psyched
It’s been a while since we’ve seen anything even remotely close to a new BioShock. It’s not too surprising of course; Kevin Levine did close his studio (Irrational Games) after completing work on BioShock Infinite, but it’s still kind of odd since 2K still owns the rights to the series. Whatever the case, we’re in…
Resonance: Waterfall
It is no secret that the Duck adores Undertale. One of the many things I love about the game is its amazing soundtrack, which is easily one of my favorites from any game. I have already written a resonance post about Here We Are, which plays when you explore the True Lab, and today we…
Resonance: Here We Are
Warning: This post contains spoilers for events that take place towards the end of the True Pacifist Route in Undertale…. Not so very long ago, I had the immense pleasure of playing Undertale, a game that made me feel a wide range of emotions. I grew to deeply care about characters who had earlier tried…
Goodbye Neighbor: Thoughts on the Full Version of Hello Neighbor
Over the past several months, I have been following an intriguing indie game called Hello Neighbor. The premise is simple enough. Sneak into your neighbor’s house with the goal of finding out what he’s hiding in his basement. Of course, it’s hardly the player’s business what our mustachioed-neighbor does in the privacy of his own…
A Game About Mercy: Undertale
You may have heard of an indie PC game inspired by EarthBound called Undertale. The game’s praise, along with its relation to a SNES game I absolutely love, made it a must-play. Though, I must admit that I am typically quite reluctant to download PC games because, well, my computer is weird sometimes. When I…
