Help Wanted 2 is a Faz-tastic Mini-Game Collection, Even in Flat Mode

Help Wanted 2 is the second Five Nights at Freddy’s VR game, where you are, supposedly, playing as a new employee getting acquainted with all aspects of the pizzeria, whether it be food service, first aid, or playtesting games.  Having watched both Help Wanted games on Youtube, I was excited when they were finally released…

I Vowed to Enjoy Avowed and Eventually Did

Fair warning, this post is going to contain with SPOILERS, so tread as you wish. That said… …the first one is to be prepared for a loooooong ending to Avowed. What happened was far from whatever I might have been expecting, and that was okay. I won’t lie and say that my eyes didn’t glaze…

Crypt Custodian: Demo Review

Crypt Custodian is a charming 3D Metroidvania about a cat named Pluto who perishes and becomes a janitor in the afterlife.  You see, Pluto was a good cat and should have made it into the palace, but he got booted outside because, after your death, you made the mistake of breaking things with your broom…

Spirited Away by the Spirit of Justice

At long last, Apollo Justice’s story has come to an end! More than a year after I began the Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney Trilogy, I’ve finally seen the trilogy through to the end of its third game, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney – Spirit of Justice. And my oh my, what a whirlwind tour of a…

FNAF 5: Sister Location – When FNAF Became More Sci-Fi

Five Nights at Freddy’s 5, also known as Sister Location, was the first time the series started to take more of a sci-fi direction, with sleek, shiny robots that could open their faceplates to reveal an endoskeleton made of noodly metal cables.  It was also the first game in the series to really veer away…

Struggling Through the Dead Cells Game Trial

Nintendo Switch Online users were granted a free game trial of Dead Cells at the end of January, a game I had on my wishlist, but had never really looked into very much.  You see, I had heard good things about it and wanted to place it in my list to remember for later, but…

The End is Only the Beginning in Starfield

Or…at least that’s what Bethesda would like players to think. But I shouldn’t get head of myself in formulating my thoughts on Starfield after finally completing its main story. Doing so didn’t take me nearly as long as it did with, say, Fallout 4, but the process felt much more arduous. In just a matter…

Choice is Still Futile in The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe

When I first played The Stanley Parable years ago, the experience left me with mixed feelings. On one hand, I loved it for being so very clever about the illusion of choice in games. On the other, I hated it for being so very cheeky about the illusion of choice in games. At the time…

Becoming a Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria Franchisee in FNAF 6

FNAF 6, AKA Pizzeria Simulator, has you becoming a franchisee tasked with managing your very own Freddy Fazbear’s Pizzeria.  In addition to the usual five nights of keeping animatronics from murdering you, you’ll also be able to buy far more docile animatronics to entertain your guests, playtest games that will earn you bonus revenue, and…get…

Hogwarts Legacy: Magically Delicious

There are lots of nice words I could use to describe the 2023 darling, Hogwarts Legacy. Charming, delightful, and enjoyable rise to the top, but the best single word I can think of describe the experience is balanced. In fact, Hogwarts Legacy might be the most well-balanced game in my current library. Placing all its…
