6 / 10.0 - Shuffle Tactics
Jul 4, 2025

Despite some unique ideas and a solid art style, Shuffle Tactics has a very high difficulty curve and a roguelike loop that isn't rewarding enough, especially early on.

Death Stranding 2: On the Beach is a bigger and bolder expansion that will once again split fans and critics. The improvements across the board are felt immediately, bringing about a significant amount of much-needed change to the formula. Between the changes to stealth and combat, the new structures you can build, and the new settings, cast, and music, Death Stranding 2 has proven that Kojima is not only on point but also an auteur of the industry. There is nobody like him doing what he does, and I sincerely doubt there will be.

8 / 10.0 - Mario Kart World
Jun 15, 2025

Mario Kart World moves the series in a bold new direction with open world and battle royale elements, but there's a distinct feeling of loneliness in the free roam.

The Nintendo Switch 2 Welcome Tour features some elegant ideas, including minigames, medals, and tech demos, that give you an idea of what the Switch 2 hardware offers. Some of it, mainly the tech demos, are excellent samples of what the system can do, but ultimately, the medal chasing is little more than busy work, and it just leaves an awkward impression of being a game that should've been on the hardware for free. The minigames are also extremely simple and sometimes entertaining, but they never enticed me to return to them once I had finished what I was asked to do.

8 / 10.0 - The Alters
Jun 12, 2025

The Alters is a mashup of some of the best sci-fi movies of the last few decades, taking the idea of an isolated human and turning it on its head. The base-building and survival mechanics are fun, and they flesh out and elevate the story of a wayward soul looking to get back home in one piece.

7 / 10.0 - Date Everything!
Jun 12, 2025

Date Everything has a lot of heart, great writing, and memorable characters, but it is hampered by uneven game flow.

Fantasy Life I: The Girl Who Steals Time should not work with so much content crammed inside of it, yet it remarkably does.

Rune Factory: Guardians of Azuma is a really cool spin-off for the Rune Factory series, and it's an overall good game that'll tide you over until the inevitable sixth numbered entry.

JDM: Japanese Drift Master has the potential to be the best drift experience out there. It embodies the lifestyle and uniquely showcases it.

7 / 10.0 - Blades of Fire
May 24, 2025

Blades of Fire is a weird game with a solid story, good-looking visuals, and a unique approach to combat. However, the game is a slog to explore, one of the best parts of playing video games.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is a likely frontrunner for Game of the Year. For a studio comprised of newcomers, Sandfall Interactive has crafted a love letter to JRPGs and rekindled the discussion of whether or not turn-based games have faded into obscurity.

Doom: The Dark Ages is much more focused than its predecessors and more fun thanks to id Software’s ability to continually refine the Doom formulas to feel different enough that it never gets boring.

9 / 10.0 - Drop Duchy
May 5, 2025

Drop Duchy is the perfect blend of real-time puzzle solving and roguelike mechanics. I didn't know I needed a Tetris-like game in my life, but add a few archers, some resource management, a great progression and reward system, and a finely tuned difficulty curve.
