Once upon a time, he wrote for oprainfall. Now, he's scraping off the rust to get back into writing about the games he loves. From his humble origins of playing the Atari and Commodore 64, he now dabbles in just about every console there is. Although he has a particular love of hardcore dungeon-crawlers, roguelikes, and niche JRPGs, some of his favorite games include Earthbound, Persona 3, Eternal Sonata, Bravely Default, Tales of the Abyss, and Fate/Extra. If his geek cred wasn't good enough, he's also a bassoonist.

Ken Follett’s The Pillars of the Earth Review: A Sweeping, Expansive Work of Historical Fiction I’ll admit that historical fiction isn’t usually something I hunt down of my own accord. In fact, I can think of only two that I’ve actually read: Crossing the Horizon by Laurie Notaro and…

Redemption Reapers Review (Switch)

Redemption Reapers Review: Not Quite Enough Redemption   As my husband knows extremely well, I love strategy RPGs, but they do not love me. I have unbelievably horrendous luck when it comes to, well, everything. Extremely poor stat growth, enemies with a 3% of hitting me always connecting, whereas…

Brave’s Rage Review (Switch)

Brave’s Rage Review: Plenty of Rage to be Had (But in a Good Way) The field is flooded with deckbuilders right now, and I am absolutely living for it. Roguelike/lite deckbuilders, in particular, are very nearly overtaking hardcore dungeon crawlers as my favorite genre of all time. With so…
