I don’t know where the past year and a half went. I could have sworn I’d just barely stopped posting about Dokapon Kingdom: Connect, but my last post was in June… June 2023. It is a Compile Heart-developed remake of Sting’s Dokapon Kingdom (2007) for Nintendo Switch, best described as an RPG disguised as a board game; you can read…
Last month, PQube announced that it will bring Iwakura Aria to Western territories later this year. I do not know why I’m only receiving a press release now, dated for today, so I’m a bit bummed I didn’t get to talk about this pre-holidays! Iwakura Aria is a suspense visual…

I have two things to say before I get started on my highlights of the Xbox Games Showcase 2024. One: screw Call of Duty, I’m not watching that or writing about it past a release date. Two: I don’t care if this was a showcase for Xbox generally speaking, this…

I guess was inevitable that at some point someone would look at bringing the Slay The Spire-style roguelike formula to Puzzle Quest. In fact, I’m surprised that it hasn’t happened yet (or, at least, I haven’t heard of one before now). But that’s okay. Good Shepherd’s Demon’s Mirror has come…

I do not know what I was thinking when I didn’t include the announcement of Odencat’s next game in my Indie Live Expo 2024 catch-up, but I am here to rectify that issue now! My first Odencat game was Fishing Paradiso, and I’ve found the same charm from that game…
