Game Curious Ziggurat – Crawl Up In My Face
I’ve always wanted to run into a random dungeon with spells blazin’, but let’s face it that’s just never been a great option. Either the dungeon is too easy or your fantastical spells and weaponry are too weak. Ziggurat may have it figured out, though. It combines the polished dungeon crawler rogue-lite formula and successfully… Continue reading
Reason to Upgrade – PC Spring 2015: We Need a Professional
I used to be obsessed with keeping my PC up to date, but it became exhausting to stay on top of technology. The PC that I built 2 years ago was actually my first gaming focused PC in almost a decade. It was overdue, but in the back of my mind I feared I would fall back… Continue reading
Hey! Buy! BioShock Infinite Vigor Bottles and Pins
There will always be a lot to love about the art direction of BioShock Infinite. One of the smartest design choices was to give each vigor a distinct personality. It made each one memorable and immediately gave the player a sense of what each vigor could do. It’s no surprise that the vigors turned out… Continue reading
Hey! Remember! Play It Loud Game Boys
As the world’s go-to 7 year-old for pretty much everything, I had strong opinions about the Game Boy when it was released. Mainly that the Game Boy only plays baby games that weren’t cool enough to be on my “Intendo.” Or it could have been that I was jealous because the only Game Boy in my… Continue reading
Hey! Listen! Octodad on Vinyl
The nice dessert that comes along with the influx of quality indie game releases is that we are seeing more and more soundtracks released alongside of those games. I personally love video game music. I love it even more so when the music raises above any of my game experiences. I can’t pretend to be… Continue reading
Hey! Watch! A Chainsaw Make Majora’s Mask
You don’t mess around with Majora’s Mask so it seems fitting if one was to make a Majora’s Mask that you’d want to choose to create it in the most bad ass way possible. Since Majora’s Mask is wooden there’s really no better choice than to make one using chainsaws. Griffon Ramsey makes a lot… Continue reading

I Am Prepared But Blizzard Will Not Rest
Ten years ago I was bitten hard by a Blizzard bug. The launch of World of Warcraft was the only time in my life where I dedicated most of my game time to a single game. It was glorious and I was content. After a couple of years, I rediscovered the truth that I am… Continue reading

Played Rogue Legacy – Make this Roguelike-like Co-op-like
I owe my coworkers an apology. We wanted to find a game that was easy to pick-up-and-play single player but make progress overall as a group. Usually this means loading up a retro game with save states, but before we dug around for that I thought we’d try something more recent. Rogue Legacy seemed like a… Continue reading
Hey! Play! Take a Selfie in Doom
What’s one way to update a 20+ year-old game that really captures the essence of the 2010’s? If you thought Doomguy was missing a selfie stick, then what the hell is wrong with you? Also, I’d like to thank the creators of the InstaDoom mod for making that a reality because I immediately want to go do some… Continue reading
