Yes, Your Grace Review

The air is thick with the smell of burning torches- hushed and frantic voices cutting through the normally serene twilight. The night was young, and it would be long, as had been many nights before it. Wooden stairs creak under leather-soles, as you make your way up the tower and out onto the chemin de ronde. Soldiers bustle along the narrow path, preparing for the inevitable battle that lies ahead: Swords, explosives, hot oil- no expenses spared. Not now. Far too much is reliant on this. Your kingdom is reliant on this. Locking eyes with of one of the newer recruits,

Ale & Tale Tavern Review Jank

Dirt and gravel crunch softly under the soles of your feet as you make your way up the little-traversed path, leaning forward slightly as it gently slopes uphill. As you reach the crest, your gaze settles on the charmingly quaint building in front of you.

Battlespire Review

Originally intended as an expansion to The Elder Scrolls II: Daggerfall, the action RPG An Elder Scrolls Legend: Battlespire was released as a standalone game by Bethesda Softworks in 1997. Version 1.5 made its way to GOG in 2015 and Steam in 2022. Notoriously buggy from the moment of its release, and with a combat system where the words "fair" and "balanced" are nowhere to be seen, Battlespire is considered a challenge for Elder Scrolls fans to this day.You play the part of a student entering the Battlespire for a test to become an Imperial Battlemage only to find that the
