2021 is All About Photography: Beasts of Maravilla Island
It seems that 2021 is going to be dominated by titles that have some sort of camera capture mechanic, and that's pretty OK with me! Earlier this year, two other photograph centric titles were released. One, and indie title called Alwa: A Wildlife Adventure, had you traversing an island attempting to photograph wildlife and bring awareness to ecological preservation. You attempted to stop a hotel company from building a brand new hotel on a delapetated nature reserve. The other, New Pokemon Snap, was a bit bigger of a title, allowing Pokemon fans to capture their favourite monsters in their natural habitats. Beasts of Maravilla Island is continuing the trend in 2021 by giving us yet another experience, and while the photographic gameplay mechanics exist like the others, it provides yet ...
Red Rising from Stonemaier Games – Review
Over the past few weeks, I've been playing Red Rising, one of the newer board games from Stonemaier Games. For whatever reason, I never felt that Red Rising fit into the mould of games that Stonemaier was creating and publishing, and even after playing, it definitely feels different. While many of Stonemaier's previous games are deep dives that can take up to a few hours to complete, Red Rising - based on a popular book series - is fairly quick after you've learned the ins and outs of all the cards you'll be playing.
Rainbow Six Siege is Hella fun on Google Stadia
Rainbow Six Siege has been a gem of a title for Ubisoft for about half a decade, and as they bring more and more platforms online, the pool of available players, and the availability of the title to a wider audience, continues to grow. And while many might quickly write off the Stadia version, claiming there w0n't be a pool of players because, "Google Stadia is dead," rest assured your player base will be massive with cross-play support between Stadia, Luna from Amazon, and P
Between Two Castles of Mad Kind Ludwig: Secrets and Soirees Expansion
A few years ago, we took a look at the fantastic Stonemaier title, Between Two Castles of Mad King Ludwig, which combined elements of the infamous games Between Two Cities, and Castles of Mad King Ludwig. We reviewed the game and really loved the castle building, tile laying aspect. And really, we had no complaints with the original game. The rules worked well, the components were of a superior quality - as they always are with Stonemaier - and the game was just fun to play. Who wouldn't want to build not one, but two castles?! Stonemaier has done an excellent job over the years expanding their universes to bring in new ideas to old games, and released moderedtly priced expansions that greatly extend the shelf life of you favourite games. With the launch of Secrets and Soirees, that ...

Screenless Coding – indi is Bringing Coding Fun for Youngsters this September
The concept and importance of STEM - science, technology, engineering, and mathematics - is becoming increasingly more popular year over year, and parents are clamouring to find the latest and greatest STEM products, camps, and more for their kids. So many companies now advertise STEM friendly activities for kids, but in my home, we've found that most of these companies are profiting off the philosophy, as opposed to actually providing engaging, STEM products. Our kids are currently using the SPHERO MINI set, and we've been more impressed with that product than we have with the dozens of others we've purchased and played with over the past few months. I began looking into Sphero and their multitude of products, and was intrigued by an upcoming product launching this September, indi. ...
Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town Proves that Point and Click Rule the Switch
I've just rolled the credit on Willy Morgan and the Curse of Bone Town on Nintendo Switch, and this was the closet experience I've felt to when I played Kings Quest 5 and 6 back in the day. From wonderfully drawn worlds to the witty writing, it has been proven yet again that games like Willy Morgan rule on the Nintendo Switch. It's a point and click adventure master system!

Sony Shows off it’s Versatility in State of Play
PlayStation has a ton of great AAA titles heading for the console in late 2021 and early 2022, but yesterday's State of Play wasn't about any of first party titles. Instead, I fully believe that Sony showed off their versatility in what they can offer their fans, with a ton of great and diverse exclusive titles. Anytime Nintendo does a direct and leaves out the big boys - aka, Zelda, Mario, etc - hardcore indie fans are always abuzz, while most Nintendo fans are left disappointed. That wasn't the case here.
Worms Rumble Runs Well on Nintendo Switch
Although I wasn't quite sure what to expect when I launched Worms Rumble on Nintendo Switch, I was glad to almost instantly see that cross-play with other consoles was an option. With no knowledge of the title whatsoever, the thing I wanted to know was: will people actually be playing this on Nintendo Switch? Will it run OK on the system? Thankfully, even if players aren't on Nintendo Switch, I was hoping in and out of most games with relative ease, and enjoying a fairly smooth experience along the way.
