Yokaa-Laylee Is a Nostalgic Ride So Far
With review codes hitting media last night, it is obvious that Team 17 and Playtonic Games know they have a winner on their hands. The media is playing a game 3 weeks ahead of launch?

Styx: Shards of Darkness a True Stealth Experience
I've not completely finished Styx: Shards of Darkness yet but I'm having a really great time with it as I go.

I was a huge fan of those games and they made me a huge fan of Fire Emblem. Why did I like Fire Emblem Fates so much? I bought all three Fire Emblem Fates games: Conquest, Revelations, and Birthright. My original plan was to only buy Conquest. But I…

Snakebyte Offering Many Switch Accessories
Video game accessory maker Snakebyte has launched a number of products for the Nintendo Switch, and were nice enough to send over some samples for us to look at. While I'm fairly picky about the accessories I purchase - and frankly, who I purchase them from - I was very impressed with the items Snakebyte had to offer. Although I'm not as familiar with this brand as I am with other popular brands, I extended the same reviewing courtesy to these as I would anything else. And to be honest, Snakebyte is doing something with their peripherals that other companies just aren't!
