I absolutely love detective games featuring strong, smart women. I think there aren’t enough of them… but that could just be me. Hauma – A Detective Noir Story fits in this category. It launched for PC last September but I was never sure it would come to consoles, until today when a Nintendo Switch version was announced. The game follows…
Wholesome Snack may be a mini version of the Wholesome Direct, but it’s always packed to the brim with games I’m excited to play. Last year’s Wholesome Snack showed off games such as Mail Time, Mineko’s Night Market, and Tchia. This one holds even more goodies, including several game announcements…

Read MoreI kind of love when I get excited for a game, but it takes so long to launch that I kind of forget about it. It makes the actual launch a happy surprise. It’s been ten years since Harold Halibut first came into existence, with the team building real-world sets…
Read MoreCupid Parasite is one of the stronger visual novels launched this decade.
