I played the 3DS demos, I’ve looked at footage, and of course played some non-rpg  games.…

One of them was Voice of Cards: The Isle Dragon Roars.  Footage of the game was shown off for the first time and it was announced that a demo was coming out after the Direct. I’ve now played the entire demo and want to share my thoughts on it. Voice of Cards: The Dragon Roars is a video game that plays like a board game! You have cards…

Today, Nintendo had an all-new Direct. And it…was AMAZING. I talk about what I liked so much about today’s Nintendo Direct below. Today was Nintendo Direct Day. I was prepared for disappointment. As it turned out…I was not disappointed (for the most part). Nintendo delivered the best Direct is a long time in my opinion. What was so great about it? Well, first of all: Nintendo announced not one but TWO additional videos to be premiere in October: The final…

Tails of Iron isn't Animal Crossing. It isn't a cute, cozy experience about talking rats. Instead, it's a dark, grim fairy tale with "talking" rats.

These aren't gross vile rats, but loveable, dedicated, and strong creatures. But, is it a good game? Here is our review of Tails of Iron! Plus, check out a first look video from Adam Roffel below.
