Continue reading →: Fable (2026)Full disclosure, I’m a fan of Fable. This content will be biased in that I’ve been a fan of the franchise for a long time. When Lionshead Studios closed in 2016, I had lost all hope of another Fable game. Fable came out in 2004, Fable II in 2008, and…

Comprised of a complex narrative, interesting characters and an intriguing setting, Team Tetrapod has brought something outside my norm for me to review.

Continue reading →: The Case of the Worst Day Ever Review – Fill in the blanks…The Case of the Worst Day Ever. Sounds pretty dramatic, doesn’t it? Like that friend who stubs their toe, and now the world is ending. Honestly, this game might be more dramatic in the best possible way.

Continue reading →: Abra-Cooking-Dabra Review – Taste is subjective, but is that a furball on my plate?In general, I do not enjoy card-based/deck building games. I don’t enjoy the random pack luck or trying to determine what to play or how to build the best team.
