Zoey Handley
Zoey made up for her mundane childhood by playing video games. Now she won't shut up about them. Her eclectic tastes have worried many. Don't come to close, or she'll shove some weird indie or retro game in your face. It's better to not make eye contact. Cross the street if you see her coming.

Preview – Wax Heads
I don't want to work retail ever again, but if I did, a record store seems like it would be okay. I'm not strictly a music person. I play video games all day, after all. But I like being around passionate people, and you can often find them in a record store. Anyway, that's what Wax Heads is about.

Review – Blippo+
After a few recommendations, I've visited one of 2025's darlings. But Blippo+ is much less a game, and more a collection of low-budget sketches joined together by a central plot. I can see why it's so fascinating.

Review – Super Star Force
On the surface, it looks just like any other autoscrolling shmup. Surprise! Underneath is a hybrid game that swaps between shooter and action adventure. Plus, you travel through time to change the future. What more could you want?

Review – Rampart (Famicom)
Rampart has a formula that can only be stretched so far. Or can it? When Konami took a crack at it on Famicom, they took it to a pretty unusual place. It's time to see Rampart like you maybe never have before!
