Dating Adzuken – Nicole
I really wasn't expecting anything to top Iris School of Wizardry in dark turns, but somehow Nicole found a way. I'm not new to having a game make me feel uncomfortable, but it's always unfortunate when it happens. I don't even think it was intentional with Nicole, it just happened.

Review – Elder Scrolls Blades
I am well-versed in Elder Scrolls. Practically read the titular scrolls myself. Can't see a thing. So, I guess I'll try the mobile game they're pushing. How bad could it be, right? Haha! You can see where this is going. It's not great, friend. It's not great.

Dating Adzuken – Iris School of Wizardry
I picked Iris School of Wizardry because I found it amusing that the academy of this wizard school is the same one used in Magical Diary. Probably a coincidence. I don't want to spoil things for you, but this one take a horrific hard turn that I did not see coming.

Review – Game Dev Story
Kairosoft games somehow manage to cover a large variety of subjects while still following a pretty strict formula. It's an addicting formula, and that's maybe part of the problem. Nonetheless, I'm still endeared by them, and feel the need to play their games occasionally. It all started with Game Dev Story.

Dating Adzuken – Pyrite Heart
This game is listed as "adult" on MobyGames, but I'm fairly certain it isn't. Instead, it's yet another high school romance, which is pretty normal for the genre. The highlight in Pyrite Hearts is when I dressed in a maid outfit. N-not that I'm into that sort of thing. Baka.

Dating Adzuken – Tokyo School Life
For this adventure into dating sims, things go absolutely off the rails. Tokyo School Life makes me feel weird, and ashamed, and uncomfortable. So, I suppose it very accurately captured my high school days. I don't mention this in the article, but this one is made by legendary remaster developer M2.

Dating Adzuken – Magical Diary: Horse Hall
The first in my series of articles focused on my adventures in dating sims. Looking back well after the fact, starting off with this misadventure was weirdly indicative of how things were going to proceed. But at least I got to go to the prom with a demonic hunk.

Review – 198X
I am, if nothing else, very sentimental about video games. Not sure if you can tell. It doesn't take much to get me to spin yarns about my childhood and the games that turned me into the wreck you see before me. So 198x appeals to me on a conceptual level.

Review – Halo: Reach
I had an appreciation for Halo back in its heyday, but never counted myself as a fan. Every so often, I feel the need to play one of the games again, but it only seems to confirm that I don't love them. Is Halo Reach an exception to that? No.

Review – Shadowrun: Hong Kong
I'm always hungry for Shadowrun. Shadowrun Hong Kong builds off Harebrained Schemes' previous games to present something that is similar, improved, but also deficient in some ways. Or over-ficient, maybe. Listen, I'm not sure how much to give away in these blurbs. Maybe just read on to see what I mean.
