James Dern's Reviews

My name is James Dern and I am all about video games. I've had many hobbies in my life but video games have always been the center of it all; after basketball practice, playing my guitar, or work, I always came back home to dive into some games. I'll play anything that catches my attention and try anything worth experiencing. My other hobbies include playing a variety of instruments, a few sports, digital art, and photography. I was active duty in the United States Navy for 5 years and received an honorable discharge as a Petty Officer 3rd Class and I am now attending a technical institute currently working my way to obtaining my business management certificate and a degree in Cyber Security. I've taken up an interest in online journalism pertaining to retro and modern gaming. Did I mention that I enjoy video games?
7 / 10.0 - Katanaut
Oct 3, 2025

Overall, I had a fun time playing Katanaut. Those seeking an action game about a space samurai slicing through icky monsters should consider it.

4.8 / 10.0 - Pokemon Friends
Sep 10, 2025

Pokémon Friends isn’t anything new; it’s basically a halfhearted mash-up of many puzzle games predecessors that came before it put into one with a Pokémon brand and plushie gimmick. It would be a far better game with the right level structure and broader progression, but it is still a cute, enjoyable, and leisurely experience that is worth ten dollars to me...

For those even remotely curious, I highly recommend finding some footage online and just listen to the way the characters speak. It is why I overcame my hangups with the gameplay. I wanted to hear those lines and see what happens.

9.1 / 10.0 - Pumpkin Panic
Apr 27, 2025

All in all, Pumpkin Panic is a compelling spooky twist to a simple, but fun genre. Like I have previously mentioned, the game itself isn’t terribly time-consuming and easy to fit into a single cozy afternoon.
