Publisher One or Eight and developer Team EARTH WARS have just released Lost Epic, and it certainly lives up to its name. The game touts a Souls-like (read: challenging) experience in a 2D side-scrolling environment). While this hack-and-slash foray does have some high points, much of it feels a bit unpolished while parts of it come […]
The 90s were so good to me when it came to video games. I was born in the 80s, but grew up in the 90s and got to experience the early rise of gaming consles. The NES, SNES and SEGA Genesis were taking the USA by storm and you weren’t the “cool kid” if you […]
I was first introduced to What the Golf?’ while watching DGR (popular YouTuber and streamer of all things Mario) play a few levels on YouTube. It was a great exercise in disrupting the equilibrium of expectations, as the game had a way of turning those expectations on their collective ears. It put a smile on […]
There’s nothing like a cup of coffee, lo-fi music, and some time to relax and unwind. This is something I personally enjoy doing in the mornings, or at night except with no coffee. A game that puts all of this together in a rainy setting is Coffee Talk, an indie game I have had the […]
I had the opportunity to play this new JRPG from NIS for the Switch. My full review is here, but you can get a preview of it below. Let me know your opinion on this game and any other Ys game you may have played, as I’m new to this series and it’s the first […]

It has been quite a while since I did an update on the blog, including this Retro Gaming Club column. I have been very busy this summer with family, home projects, and picking up or organizing our home. There’s always a lot to do when your on vacation, but I’m glad for the downtime. Below […]
During the recent Nintendo Direct in February, a new game called project TRIANGLE STRATEGY was revealed that reminded me of Fire Emblem and Octopath Traveler. When I watched the preview, I was excited to try it out but I assumed, like most games, I wouldn’t be able to get my hands on it for quite […]
Diamond The month of April has delivered an exciting outpouring of blessings for me! My steps have been finetuned with the Holy Spirit and God has been rewarding me richly. With that being said, the amount of greater blessings flowing out tends to invite the greater amount of workload with a shift in responsibility. Meaning…I’ve […]
The newest game to bring jump scares to many streamers and gamers alike is Little Nightmares II. This sequel brings more of what the original one did, which was make you jump or sweat in fear as you play. I saw that the demo was available on Nintendo Switch and having never played the first […]
