Lindsay picked up an NES controller for the first time at the age of 6 and instantly fell in love. She began reviewing GBA games 20 years ago and quickly branched out from her Nintendo comfort zone. She has has developed a great love of life sims and FMV titles. For her, accessibility is one of the most important parts of any game (but she also really appreciates good UI).
I think I blinked and missed out on the announcement of Crymachina, which is a bummer because it looks quite good and I would have liked to write about it sooner! The “serenely dark” action RPG is about mechanical girls trying to survive a post-apocalyptic world and become “Real Humans.” That begs the question: what does it mean to be…
It’s very rare that I get to write this, but the Nobunaga’s Ambition series is hitting 40 this year. That’s 40 years of Kou Shibusawa’s historical simulation franchise. 40! Very few game series that are still running are older than me, so that’s downright impressive. It’s also completely understandable, as…
Hello Kitty has shown up in games over the years, sure. But…
Monster collecting games are a dime a dozen; it seems like a…

Monster collecting games are a dime a dozen; it seems like a good chunk of developers are trying to make the next Pokémon. Cassette Beasts (which I first learned about during last’s year Guerilla Collective 3 Showcase) is another monster collecting title, but it sets itself apart with the use…

I’ve written about Volcano Princess before: back in November, its release date was set for early February 2023. That date came and went, sadly with no Volcano Princess. But I’m here with some good news! A new release date has been announced for the parenting simulator RPG, and it’s not…

Another Otoko Cross: Pretty Boys game is getting ready to launch, and soon!

Considering DDNet’s editor-in-chief, Matt, considers the second game (NieR:Automata) to be the greatest game ever made, how could I not make that connection at every opportunity? This may be news to some, but Yoko Taro has also…
