Quarantine Gaming – Hotline Miami Collection Impressions
The world (and everyone on it) is in a really weird place right now. We can't go to the movies and catch the newest movies, TV programming has pretty much either stopped anything new or is filled with bad quality webcam video of people working from their home. Kids can't go to school or play with their friends...and video games are being delayed indefinitely. So what is a troubled gamer to do? Tackle that backlog and play some indie games, and that's exactly what I am doing.

Collecting All of Jolly Redd’s Items
Although the update for Animal Crossing: New Horizons is only a few hours old, our good friend Abdallah Smash has already collected all the items Redd has for sale. While that seems like a pretty impressive feat, I've seen Abdallah do way better before. Regardless, that isn't why we are here, so lets get into it!

Animal Crossing Could Use Quality of Life Improvements
When you love a game as much as Animal Crossing, it's easy to look over the negatives and focus just on the positives. And frankly, that is what we did at GamesReviews when handing the game a perfect 10/10 score. Does Animal Crossing: New Horizons have some faults? Of course it does, but the overall package is near perfection. For the record, a 10/10 score on GamesReviews does not mean perfect, but rather is a score given to only our favourite titles!

Tiny Towns is the Perfect “Gateway Game”
Over the many years of playing Board Games, I've found that there are two different types of board game players. First, there are those that play traditional board games like Monopoly, Risk, and now, yes even Settlers of Catan. Then there is another breed of board game players that venture out into more difficult and deep experiences, such as Scythe, Isle of Skye, Tapestry, and more. Without actually being forced from the former into the latter, it's actually difficult to get someone to move into the latter category. Enter what I think is the perfect "gateway game", Tiny Towns.

Is their “Lucky” Moments in Animal Crossing: New Horizons? Of Course!
If you've played games like Stardew Valley in the past, you know there are such things as lucky days, and unlucky days. In Stardew, it's a well known fact that if the spirits are smiling upon you, it's a good day to trek into the mines, or into the Skull Cavern. Why? Because you are likely to pick up lots of diamonds and other valuable gems, or perchance cash in on gold or even iridium ore! We are over 150+ hours into Animal Crossing: New Horizons and I'm beginning to wonder if the game has what I call, "Lucky" Moments.
