Ten years have gone by, and now it’s time to list the Duck’s ten very favorite games from the last decade, ranging from horror to Metroidvania to expansive adventure and platformer games.

The Duck’s Favorite Event: When the World Played Breath of the Wild Together
Although we have a decade worth of posts to look back on, I have always had fond memories of the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and the posts that came with it. While I am unable to choose one single post, I suppose I can still justify my opinion that…
I Loved Zelda-ween!
You know, it’s still kind of insane to me that we’ve managed to last 10+ years as a blog. Most of our peers from that time have, for one reason or another, moved onto other things yet here we are somehow still chugging right along. We’re all going to talk about that a bit more…
Scariest Enemies: Humanoid Monstrosities
Video games are filled to the brim with weird and creepy monsters, but if I had to narrow it down, humanoid creatures are probably my least favorite foe. It could be the inherent creepiness of the uncanny valley, or it could just be that I don’t like facing off against something that either used to…
Tears of the Kingdom is Bigger, But is it Better?
The short answer: yes. The long answer, however, is just a bit more complicated. The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom is the long-anticipated sequel to the most ambitious entry into the Zelda franchise to date, Breath of the Wild. As the release date for this game neared, I couldn’t help but waver between…

When I was a kid, my view of what was and wasn’t a “good” game was very simple, I think. It’s difficult to accurately remember that far back, but I have this impression that I thought games were either good or bad. What I mean is that I thought there were games like Ocarina of…
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…
The Newest Tears of the Kingdom Update: Now With 100% More Sticks
Last week, Cary covered the newest update on The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom. Much of this update covered Link’s new crafting abilities, including a new feature to create vehicles that can cross the ground, water, and air! As exciting as this high degree of creative freedom is, I can’t help but feel…
Age of Calamity: Demo Review
Having invested many hours into the original Hyrule Warriors on the Wii U, I thought it would be interesting to try the demo for the next entry in The Legend of Zelda spin-off of Dynasty Warriors, Age of Calamity on the Switch. Unlike the original, which had a story that stood apart from the rest…
