Sayonara Wild Hearts (Switch – 2019)
Sayonara Wild Hearts is difficult to explain. It’s described as a “pop album video game” but that’s not something we’ve really had before. I didn’t know what to expect when I scooped it up from the Nintendo Switch e-Shop when it was... read more

Status Report – End of 2019, Start of Age 37
It’s been a while. I feel like rambling. Let’s get a blog post on the wall. This was originally going to be a recap of the past year, but I’ve been so bad at keeping this blog updated that the timeline covered in this post will probably account for... read moreCracker Barrel or Concentration Camp
