Review: Klang 2 Is a Rhythm Game That Looks like a Platformer
I love rhythm games. They’re definitely one of my favorite genres to just sit back with and relax–even despite their ocassional intensity. Even games like Beat Saber have a calming, cathartic quality […]
Review: Dark Deckbuilder Inscryption Is Brilliant, Unexpected
This review strives to be as spoiler-free as possible. It’s hard to write about Inscryption. It’s a game that’s full of surprises—and those surprises are part of the fun I’ve had […]
