Ho there wanderer, stay thy course a moment and let me tell thee of yet another Dungeons and Dragons: Forgotten Realms set of game from over 20 years ago. On this episode I discuss my time with and thoughts on the Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance titles, side stories to the more well-known entries in the hallowed halls of CRPG royalty. Do the heroes of these hack and slash ARPGs have what it takes to stand shoulder to shoulder with their more popularized and overly dramatic counterparts, or if this

Were you aware that Cyberpunk 2077 was not the only cyberpunk-theme tabletop role-playing game that was turned into a video game? On this episode I talk about my time with the odd Shadowrun Returns trilogy of games. Get ready for a somewhat different type of cyberpunk, where elves jack in to the Internet as digital holograms to do real world battle and shamans turn natures spirits against the technocracy around them.

On this episode I will be taking a short look at the games revolving around The Evil Dead cinematic universe and offering my thoughts on these titles as a fan of the movies. What are they exactly? Are they even any good? Were you even aware there were games based on a B-movie horror franchise starring the most well-known B-movie actor of our time?

Like anyone who has had one too many drinks at a dive bar can tell you, at some point the rowdy folks get tossed out to brawl in the parking lot. And a lot of arcade and home console videogames have reflected that "spirit" of competition. On this episode I wax nostalgic about all the fighting games I have played over the years, at least one I didn't do an entire individual episode on. This list is hardly exhaustive, but did your favorite make the cut? Stop by for a listen; I have a few

2025/08/27

Sometimes a studio becomes a massive developer churning out dozens of famous titles. Other time a studio remains small, making a name for itself with smaller titles, cozy puzzles, and mid-level role playing games. That is where Level-5, Inc., has found itself in the current gaming sphere and was where I was introduced to them. On this episode I talk about the early titles of theirs that I played, their impression on me, and where they left me all within the life cycle of the PlayStation 2. Come by

2025/08/06

The tree of survival horror in games has borne many a twisted, dark and delectable fruit, but not all of them are for me. The what I call run and hide horror game is one of those subgenres. You know, the kind where you cannot fight, but must only flee, usually in first person view, while looking for a cabinet to hide in. In this review I discuss my time with Amnesia: the Dark Descent and Outlast, and why I had an adverse reaction to these games unlike the many fans out there of scary survival

This is a long one, listeners. Can one podcaster do 25 micro-reviews of various brawlers in one episode? Should they do such a thing? Well, I did! On this episode I micro-review a slew of brawlers I have played over the years that don't really need their own episode for. However, I have collected them in this one episode for your discovery and enjoyment. Tape up your knuckles, put on your best denim and sweat bands, and get ready to punch evil, vigilante style!

2025/07/09

On this retrospective review, I discuss the somewhat forgotten games Koudleka and Shadow Hearts, a series of horror role-playing games in the Japanese fashion. Deeply themed with loss, tragedy, hope, Japanese and European themes, Lovecraftian monsters and the time honored trope of kicking a god in the face, this is a series that deserved more love than it got. Stop by for a listen and relive a set of cult classics - or maybe get introduced to the for the first time!

Do you love point and click adventure games? Do you love typing fast on keyboards? The this episode if for you. I render my thoughts on the stand out games I played from the collection of Sierra On-Line (later Sierra Entertainment) that influenced my PC gaming years.

Okay, it's time to tackle the remainder of the Square Enix library of Final Fantasy games I've played. On this episode I do just that, touching on main line series entries, a few side story games, and a few more odds and ends related to the long-running franchise.
