Reus 2 Nintendo Switch 2 / Xbox Impressions – Not For Console?
Reus 2 has launched on the Nintendo Switch and Xbox and while there obviously a really solid game here for fans of “god games” to enjoy, I’m not sure the home console, even one that is portable like the Nintendo Switch, is the ideal place to play this. In Reus 2, players will terraform planets and settle a variety of different tribes on them. These tribes will have leaders who like or want specific things, and the city of each…
Star Wars: Super Teams Board Game Review
We have been getting a ton of Star Wars games over the past year, and I’m here for it. I love Star Wars, and while I’m always worried we are bound to get a really bad game with a great IP, that doesn’t seem to have happened yet. Star Wars: Super Teams looked to be that game, a half backed experience banking on success because of its IP. That couldn’t be further from the truth. While Star Wars: Super Teams…
Turtle Beach Rematch Wireless Controller – Nintendo Switch
A few months ago, Turtle Beach sent over one of their newest Nintendo Switch Rematch Wireless controllers, and after using it a ton over the past few weeks, mostly reviewing Pokémon Legends Z-A, we are really impressed! The parity for controller quality across the industry right now is pretty close. Unless you are ordering a cheaply made, mass produced controller from Temu or the like, you are going to get a really solid product that works as intended. For the…
More Thoughts From Me: I Love Spooky Season
Its Spooky Season again! Halloween is this week. I thought I’d talk about some of my all-time favorite spooky games again and some of my recent favorites. Happy Halloween is this week. I love this time of the year. I’m a huge fan of spooky video games (and movies and books). So I thought I’d talk about some of my all-time favorites again. During the PlayStation 1 era, I got my first glimpse of the Survival Horror genre. I remember…
Battle of Hoth Board Game Review
Memoire 44 is an incredibly popular title amongst a certain age of gamers, and while the gameplay is fantastic, the World War theme has become a bit lost on newer generations of gamers. But what if that system could be reworked into something more popular, say Star Wars? Fantasy Flight Games made this happen, so let’s take a look at Battle of Hoth and see if the gameplay matches the IP! I’ve said it before and I will say it…

Please Don’t Burn My Village Review
One of the toughest aspects of reviewing board games is that so many come through the office each week. Often we have to pass on some, and others are intriguing enough to push down the road. Please Don’t Burn My Village is one of those games, one that although I didn’t get to it after GenCon when my copy arrived, I knew I wanted to. So is this game as intriguing as I thought it would be? Let’s check it…
OnePlus Buds 4 Review
Our good friends over at OnePlus sent over the OnePlus Buds 4 in mid September, and for a variety of reasons our review of the product has been delayed a bit longer than we would have liked. That said, we’ve been able to use these a lot more than we normally would before publishing a review, and of course we have a ton of thoughts. At a relatively low price of 129.99 USD (or 169.99 CAD), they are not the…
Tea Witches Components Overview and Impressions
When I saw that the artist and designer of Flamecraft had partnered again on another title, this time with The OP, I was pretty excited. Not only did the gameplay of Tea Witches look phenomenal, but the components looked great as well! There is a lot in the box when you first get Tea Witches to the table, and the beautiful artwork definitely pops right away. Whether it’s the various witches on the cards, the various shops you’ll be visiting,…
Fountains Board Game Review
When The OP sent over Fountains, it wasn’t actually the game in the box I was most excited about: that was Tea Witches. But when speaking with the media representative for The OP, they assured me that Fountains was a game tile laying fans were going to love because it takes traditional tile laying and makes it…vertical? While I wasn’t sure what was meant by that, I do love a solid tile laying game. So while Tea Witches was calling…
