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.

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.

Review – Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour
Duke Nukem 3D was a huge game for me at a time in life when I shouldn't have been playing it. In fact, it probably really screwed up my sexual development. And while the 20th Anniversary World Tour version isn't the best, it gives me an excuse to talk about it. As if I needed one.

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.

Review – TroubleDays
One of my favourite stories to tell about myself is the time I bought a bunch of ecchi games on a Steam Holiday Sale, and the store algorithm immediately jumped to the conclusion that I was a pervert. Is it correct? Do I play these games ironically or do I actually get some titillation from them? That’s none of your…

Review – Baobabs Mausoleum Episode 3: Un Pato en Muertoburgo
Eeeh, this deep into the Baobabs Mausoleum series, I've lost the faith. There's a lot of personality on display, but also a lot of half-assery. But at least there's this one last episode to get through. And at least we get to find out how Watracio Walpurgus survived a gunshot to the head.

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 – Resident Evil (Remake)
One of the major gaming memories I commonly cite is the time when the Resident Evil remake on Gamecube gave me nightmares. Because, you know, I’d rather tell you about myself at my wussiest, rather than, say, how great I was at F-Zero GX. I think I just had to play it because it was the prettiest game I’d seen…

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 – Yakuza 0
My experience with Yakuza boils down to this one time that I watched a former roommate play a bit of the first game on Playstation 2. All I remember is the title character running around in what looked like a Japanese garden. I was unimpressed, but the series remained in my periphery. Why wouldn’t it? Its journey across the pond…
