Evening tree

Not necessarily a good vibe, but a great vibe nonetheless.

Lies of P - trailer 2021-11-09 — Vincent Leeuw

Lies of P - trailer

Obviously Lies of P wants to jump into the gaping hole left by Bloodborne. It's almost a bit too similar to its inspiration. Creepy dolls seem to fit though …

Metroid Dread (NS)

I've been wanting to write down my thoughts about Metroid Dread since completing it over the first week after its release. Every time I sat down to write it …

A movie Prime

Back in 2018 the Bumblebee movie had possibly the one thing that fans of the '80s version of The Transformers went a bit nuts about: a battle scene at …

My Best Games of 2021

Because multiple people started asking me about what I played and liked this year, here's the list. No Metroid Dread though. You can read about that particular …

The manual of the Chronicles of Spellborn

Here's a nice blast from the past. While cleaning up some folders, I stumbled upon the old manual of The Chronicles of Spellborn. This did cost me a lot of …

Radio Kootwijk

Radio Kootwijk is a weird place. Or rather, I think it doesn't really belong nor fit within the Netherlands. The photo above reminds me of something else …

Mini Tokyo 3D

Here's a fun little time-waster: Mini Tokyo 3D. A real-time 3D subway map of Tokyo, showing you all the little trains updating in real-time. (Might be a bit …

If On A Winter's Night, Four Travelers (macOS)

A nice mood piece. Pour yourself a warm or a stiff drink and set some time apart to play through If On A Winter's Night, Four Travelers. Either via itch.io or …

Not an arrow, you say?

It is fun to see games acknowledge each other. If only within the slightest of nods.

Serve & Smash

It's not often Dead Cells manages to get under my skin, but this one hurt.

Yacht Club Games sails again

Yacht Club Games kind of surprised everyone with a spiritual Link's Awakening successor in the form of Mina the Hollower. Which is looking just perfect.

The Orphan of Kos

With Elden Ring around the corner, my thoughts wandered back to Bloodborne (as they often do). And that means recollecting the fight with Orphan of Kos, which …

Look at the size of 'em

Will have some experiences up about both before long.

Vampire Survivors (PC)

It looks like an old Flash-game and to a certain extent it plays like one too. Just move around dodging enemies and projectiles, while picking up gems to level …

Blasphemous (PS4)

"Never read the comments" is the unofficial creed of the Internet. It's bound to bring you misery and unhappiness. And so it cast me into the depths of …

A playdate with Playdate

It wasn't so much the hardware that made the Playdate an enticing proposition to me. Nor was it the admittedly great track record of both Panic and Teenage …

Elden Ring (PS5)

Proclaimed game of the year before the year well and truly started, it's maybe a bit redundant to write… well, anything about Elden Ring. Doubly so as I didn't …

Weekplay 202222

I've been low-key obsessed with Dungeon Encounters for some time now, but last week it truly sank its hooks into me now that Elden Ring is out of the way. …

Weekplay 202223

I bumped into the braindance sequence of Cyberpunk 2077 and this is without a doubt the most cyberpunk-ish aspect of the game yet. It's a cool little reference …

“Autobots, assemble and roll out!”

LEGO’s Optimus Prime set is one chunky bot! Was awesome to build some of the parts only to realise how they would fit in and convert in the complete build. …

Weekplay 202224

I like Streets of Rage 4, I really do, but the game is a bit dogged down by its technicalities. The aggressive specials-cost-rally-HP system isn't too …

Rescuing a tabaxi

A simple rescue takes a lethal turn. Being ambushed by some wolf-men (don’t call ‘em werewolves) is definitely a bit more than we bargained for.
