Building Bases in Portal Knights
I've spent a considerable amount of time building and maintaining a thriving base on the first world in Portal Knights.

I've found one thing to be very true about these experiences: it is so relaxing. I never thought this type of game would cause me to relax and unwind, but this definitely has.

ARMS Global Testpunch
With the ARMS Global Testfire complete, people have been flooding the internet with streams and opinions on Nintendo's latest IP. For myself, ARMS really reminds me of Splatoon when it was first announced and shown off. Until you get your hands on it, you are pretty skeptical of the overall appeal. I had zero faith in, or desire to play, ARMS, but when you help run a video game website, taking one for the team and playing a game you don't think you will like is a requirement. Surprise surprise: I liked ARMS a lot!
