Listmas 2022: Cary’s hopes for the next Fable game
I could easily list of a dozen things I’d want as far as gaming goes this Christmas, but none are quite as close to my heart as craving the next game in the Fable series. In as much as games like Super Metroid, Super Mario World, and Sam & Max: Hit the Road shaped my…
Listmas 2022: Cary’s Great Gaming Escapes
No matter what life brings, we all need the occasional getaway. Time to refresh and regroup far away from the realities of life.

Summer in Mara: Demo Review
In recent years, I’ve been finding myself increasingly interested in playing relaxing games, so when I downloaded the demo for Summer in Mara, I was quite curious to see if this was the next casual game to add to my library. This game seems like it could be a bit like Harvest Moon meets Animal…
