Life is Strange 2 is a bit of an anomaly in the Life is Strange series (including the spin-off) – it is the only one that features a male protagonist. I remember way back in 2018 (it seems like a decade ago) when the game was announced, I was hesitant…

Please, Touch the Artwork is one of the more creative games I’ve seen in quite some time. It first launched for PC and mobile devices, with Matt featuring it in one of his interesting games collections. I wrote about it being featured in a Guerrilla Collective showcase just prior to…

If Lone Ruin had been released three years ago, it would have been noteworthy. If it had been released a decade ago, it would have been celebrated. The game itself is an excellent example of taut, intense mechanics, a well-designed (and challenging) difficulty curve, and moody aesthetics. Unfortunately, it’s a…
