Hi. These are words about games I’ve played.
I used to run some gaming websites, but those are all gone now. Right around When The World Ended, I found myself writing about games again. I don’t really know why, it just seemed like a good idea. I had thoughts and didn’t have a place for them, and I know better than to shout into the void of Twitter or Reddit, so I shouted into a text editor.
Several years on and I have now written a bunch of words about a bunch of games, so here’s a website. I try to write at least a little about any game I consider myself “done” with, either because I squeezed all the gaming enjoyment out of it, or because it infuriated me.
Citizen Sleeper 2: Starward Vector (2025)
The team behind Citizen Sleeper is back with . . more Citizen Sleeper
Lil Gator Game (2022)
A kid’s game about playing pretend where you play a kid’s game about playing pretend.
The Destiny Off-Ramp
I have played a lot of Destiny in the past 10 years. I have 1,186 hours in D1 and – at time of writing – 3,639 hours in D2. I’ve obviously played a lot of other games in that time too, but since the launch of D2 in 2017 I’ve dutifully logged in and at least done my weeklies, and typically would spend endless hours grinding out gear, pvp, chasing goals, chasing titles, chasing new exotics, bashing my head against raids, and in-between all this, I’d be finding time to argue with internet friends about what the worst part of the game was at the moment.
Your 2024 End of Year Roundup
I played fewer titles to completion this year than usual, but I played more than twice as many as usual thanks to the glorious bounty that is UFO 50. Going to call that one a wash. I think this wasn’t a quantity of games year, this was a quality of games year, so here’s my picks.
Best Indie: Incredibly strong list of games this year between Animal Well, Balatro, The Plucky Squire and UFO 50 (as well as many others I didn’t play), but of these only Balatro ascended to the level of forever-game.
Marvel Rivals (2024)
I prefer the real Overwatch 2. I said the real Overwatch 2. Perfection.
