Fountains Review

The thick rustle and snap of wool was deafening upon your rapidly unexpected descent. Down…down...down…down...You land with an unceremonious thud, a fluster of dust clamoring to the air at your sudden arrival, the specks flickering in the glaring sunlight that poured from the mouth of the craggy hollow above. Every bone in your body aches, ribs sore with each laborious breath. Even long after the sound of footsteps, hushed voices and clanking of armor fade, you are slow to rise. Groaning, you pull yourself to your feet, fingers rolling across your stinging palms as you dislodge debris of stone and bone:

Lies of P Review

A mechanical click. The system thrums to life.Ba-dump. Tick.Strong yet intricate fingertips flex, eliciting a soft whirr of mechanics, before wrapping the surprisingly articulate tips around the edge of the chair. Artificial muscles flex.Ba-dump.

You groan, awakening in a quiet icy cave, the only sound the slow drip of snow melting from the suns direct rays. How did you even end up here? There was… a strange flying….was it a pig you were chasing? No, nooooooo- it couldn’t be. Pigs don’t fly, or have ears THAT big. What WAS real, however, was the VERY large, VERY angry boar who had chased you a good half mile, if not more- ultimately leading to your current situation after an "unfortunate misstep".With a grunt, you pull yourself up.

Dungeons of Sundaria Review

I have to admit, I was surprised by Dungeons of Sundaria. I was expecting a janky game in the style of Dungeons & Dragons : Dark Alliance, but what I got was something weirdly unique and addicting. It's a dungeon crawler that can be played either solo or co-op. At the start of the game you create your character, choose a race and class (Cleric, Champion, Mage, Ranger or Rogue) and you're immediately thrown into a town with a small tutorial on what all the NPCs do. You've got your basics like a potion seller, blacksmith, innkeeper etc. and some less
