Review by Matt S. It’s almost impossible to find good quality information about the Middle East out here in the west. Whether it’s a look at the historical context of the Middle East, or a contemporary view of the volatile region, it’s nearly impossible to break through propaganda and ideology…
Read MoreReview by Harvard L. Every time I review a Compile Heart game I can’t help but analyse how it fits into the company’s now well-established formula. Its penchant for stat heavy JRPGs with fiendishly complex combat systems and trope laden anime stories makes it a love-or-hate company, but it’s hard…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. Code of Princess was one of the first downloadable titles released on the Nintendo 3DS, released right back in 2013. I wasn’t actually a big fan of it. It’s been quite some time since I played it, but while I don’t remember the specifics, I do…

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Realms of Arkania: Star Trail is two things; firstly, it’s a really fine RPG in its own right, hearkening back to the very most traditional ideals of the genre. This is a game for people who fondly remember the first and second editions of Dungeons &…
