Whenever I play a gacha game, I ask myself, “Will it be a strategy-intensive game or a numbers-intensive game?” Though I always hope that it would be the strategy, more often than not, the game ends up being more number-intensive in terms of Damage per Second...
Goblin Slayer – Another Adventurer – Nightmare Feast Review: Why You Don’t Let the Gods Play Dice
So here we are with another game, the last one I wasn’t a fan of, but this next one I actually quite enjoyed. Goblin Slayer is probably one of the closest anime I’ve seen to a real Dungeons & Dragons campaign. Where the protagonists become thorough with their...
Shadow of the Ninja – Reborn Review: Shining a Light on Retro Action Gaming
Games of old, or what we just call retro games, had many challenges in teaching how it works. The concept of tutorial stages just wasn’t a thing in the 8-bit era. You learned the game through whatever’s printed on the arcade cabinet or the little manual that came...
LEGO Horizon Adventures Review: Playful, Packed, Predictable
There are two issues that have come up for LEGO Horizon Adventures. The first was me wondering “Another Horizon game?” Since 2022 we’ve been getting at least a few titles pushed out for the IP every year. It makes me wonder if this is Sony’s push toward creating their...

Warning: The ending of the Persona 3 Reload base game will be discussed due to its importance and connection to the DLC, but will not have any major plot details spoiled in this review When Persona 3 Reload was finally released last February 2024, it was...
Astro Bot Review: Colorful, Creative, Concise
So I went ahead and played Astro Bot for about 9 hours and finished it. No, not 100% clearing it and getting the platinum trophy, I don’t have time for that. But I did do a fair bit of going through side content and went through every stage that was available for me...
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime Isekai Chronicles Review: At Least it’s Not Another Office Meeting
That Time I Got Reincarnated as a Slime: Isekai Chronicles already has some odds stacked up against it in my review. First of all, let’s do away with the absurd as usual light novel title and use the shorthand Japanese name like how every sensible weeb does,...
Umamusume: Pretty Derby Party Dash Review: Party Up with Your Race Horse Waifus
It’s no surprise to see games that are designed to be fanservice for followers of specific IPs, may it be a wholesome or raunchy type of fanservice. Good thing Cygames’ Umamusume: Pretty Derby Party Dash is more of a wholesome type and rather a fun party game with...
