Pokemon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl: Lack of Identity – Review
I love Pokemon. I’ve been a fan ever since I received a copy of Pokemon Yellow and a Gameboy Colour for Christmas back in the late 90s; struggling through the lengthy dialogue because I wasn’t the fastest reader back then (and admittedly still aren’t).

Stories of Mara: A Stunning Yet Inaccessible Sequel – PC Review
I’ve always enjoyed visual novels ever since I discovered Ace Attorney back in the early 2010s. So, it’s brought me a lot of joy to see the genre grow in popularity over the last few years. The depth of stories that can be told due to the nature of the genre is incredible. However, if…
