This will be great when it’s finished–Genesys Core Book review

I’ve never seen such an amazing game wrapped up in such a lackluster package in all my life. The Genesys RPG system is one of the best designed breaths of fresh air the market has had in years, but this core book comes off as a cynical attempt to

Dark destinies manifest–Grimslingers review

I think we’ve found a winner in the contest for best one on one/team based/cooperative cat vampire shootout games. Grimslingers doesn’t sound like it will work until you dig into it and find how well crafted every piece of this game is. The basic combat is

Rats, chaos, and loot–Vermintide 2 review

When last the Skaven began their march on the Old Empire, Vermintide quickly proved to be an engaging and creative romp in the Warhammer fantasy universe. It faithfully recreated the setting’s mixture of historical analogue, grimdark horror, and zany comedy. It accomplished all of this while following in the

Pathfinder Second Edition—everything we know so far

Remember when I said that Starfinder felt like a half measure? It turns out this is why. Pathfinder Second Edition was announced recently, setting the tabletop gaming world abuzz with discussion, enthusiasm, and some frustration. I am not alone in feeling that we were told this wouldn’t happen, and

Paizo andRoll20 teaming up to get Pathfinder and Starfinder to virtual tabletop

Roll20 is about to receive a huge boost to its library with Pathfinder and Starfinder content. With years of adventure paths for the former and new material being released regularly for the latter, Roll20 will be a welcome home for this grid-hopping, token using content. I will be pleased to

Identified flying objects—Starfinder Alien Archive Review

The Alien Archive is more than just a monster manual for Starfinder. I mean both a literal and philosophical sense. As a book, it expands beyond a listing of aliens for your parties to engage with. It also works hard to make a case for Starfinder’s design philosophy, and

War never changes until the mutated goat armies—Gruff: Rage of the Trolls review

After generations of experimentation, battle, and horrific abominations before the eyes of God, the Shepherds of Woe must face their ancient foe once more. The Trolls have returned for revenge, and it will test the limits of your skills to defeat them. When fortune had me first stumble across Gruff:

It takes more than heart—Shu review

Somewhere between the drawing board and the gamepad, something went wrong with Shu. At its core, this charming 2D platformer has everything it needs to succeed: tight controls, friends that grant your character with new abilities, and challenges to keep the game fresh. But no matter how much heart or
