Today’s Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream Direct highlights Mii character creation with new customization parts, island building, player-created items, and more. It also announces a mid-April launch date. This is the first new entry in the Tomodachi Life series in more than 10 years.…
To start this review with something very personal: My father passed away last week. It’s been difficult, to put it mildly. The reason I bring it up is that Dad absolutely loved Ten-Pin Bowling. Had his own ball, ball bag (I had no idea they made bowling ball bags), shoes,…

The third chapter of the Xenoblade Chronicles series might just be the best of them, thanks to some intense themes that hit you right from the outset, as well as the expected excellent gameplay and expansive world. In this video, we give you a look at the very first part…
Read MoreI’ve barely started with Xenoblade Chronicles 3, but I already know two things: firstly, this is a game that I want to take my time and savour, and secondly, it’s probably going to be a pretty thinky game. It’s already thinky, and I’m only one chapter in. Related reading: You…
Read MoreAustralians should make more visual novels. I don’t just say that because I make them and need to kick myself into actually finalising my latest one (it’s getting there, day by day!). It’s just that whenever an Australian produces a VN, it’s typically gold. Max’s Big Bust is a hilarious…

Perfect Gold: The Alchemy Of Happiness highlights just how mundane love and romance can be. I don’t mean that in a negative sense, though.

Read MoreCFK is a publisher I enjoy a great deal. It’s the company that brought us the cute fanservice of Nekopara on Switch, and the Princess Maker games are a hoot as well. But this new one that the company has just announced is… Well, it’s sure something. From the press…
Read MoreYes, I already covered the Nintendo Direct mini Partner Showcase; but Harvestella stood out so much that I just had to give it some time to shine on its own. The combination of life sim and RPG has players experiencing a beautiful world that changes with the seasons, and includes…
Read MoreIf you thought a month was going to go by without a Nintendo Direct, you thought wrong! Announced a mere 24 hours ago, this Direct will focus on third-party titles and last about 25 minutes. It will focus on games launching in the next year, which I love because I’m…
Read MoreLet’s be realistic here; there’s never going to be a kart racing party game that competes with Nintendo. There are a lot of things that Nintendo can be beaten at – RPGs, puzzlers, adventure games, action games, and even platformers. But nothing will ever unseat Mario Kart. That’s not to…
