Republique VR: Anniversary Edition – The Review

March 22, 2022 ·

MYST – The Review

December 31, 2020 ·

Back in 1993, there was a game that came out on PC that really caught my eye and it was one of the reasons I had to have a PC. That game was MYST and it is a game that still holds sentimental value to me. Over the years we have seen the game and its sequels go from PC to consoles to handhelds to even mobile devices.

Blind Spot – The Review

November 16, 2019 ·

Our past, present, and future can be a puzzling aspect. When we are younger, we don't think about how things may affect us in the future.

Blood & Truth – The Interview

October 8, 2019 ·

When PlayStation VR first came out a year ago, there was a collection of games that came with it. That game was PlayStation VR Worlds. The one game that I really kept coming back to was the London Heist. It brought something new and refreshing by putting you right in the middle of the action.

Luna – The Review

October 6, 2019 ·

Do you remember when you were younger and when it was story time and as the story was being told, your imagination begins to show the story in new ways?

Blood & Truth – The Review

October 6, 2019 ·

Spies have always been thrilling and full of mystery, adventure, and suspense. A Good vs. Evil story being told.

Table of Tales: The Crooked Crown – The Review

October 6, 2019 ·

But do Developers Spectrevision and Ubisoft Montreal and Publisher Ubisoft allow us to enter one’s mind…to become the experiment… Read more.

The Inpatient – The Review

October 2, 2019 ·

There was something special when Until Dawn came to PlayStation 4. From the graphics to the story. Something just kept wanting us to be in that world. Then here comes Until Dawn: Rush of Blood for PlayStation VR. A roller coaster shooter of a nightmare that made us jump in Virtual Reality.  So what does Supermassive Games do? They took what works in Until Dawn and Until Dawn: Rush of Blood and made a prequel worth playing in The Inpatient for PlayStation VR. Like I mentioned, The Inpatient is a prequel to Until Dawn that has psychological elements… Read more.

The Invisible Hours – The Review

September 30, 2019 ·

A house, a murder, and a motive. Every since I played the board game it was fun to see who was the suspect with what weapon in what room. Then when the movie came out, it took what I loved about the board game and brought it on the big screen to have that inner child smile. The Invisible Hours by GameTrust and Tequila Works have taken the formula of a board game to a classic movie and made it the new… Read more.

Neptune Flux – The Review
