Wild Indigo Ranch: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly Firstly, hand on heart as they say, this is a great little game. It’s different, it’s quirky, and generally fun. There’s treasure to find and some elements of strategy. Sure, there’s a certain about of grind – but nothing overwhelming, but mostly it’s about rebuilding […]

Potion tycoon This is a first look in early access at Potion Tycoon. It’s a little buggy at times, and can freeze occasionally, (especially on the marsh setting, I find), but it’s more than stable enough to play.

Baldur’s Gate 3 This will be a ‘work in progress as it’s a BIG game, and I’m still only in act one. Actually, I restarted as I wanted to play in tactical mode as a bard. Plus, it’s still buggy and more than a little quirky in places due to sleep (or not sleeping) messing

Darkest Dungeon Guide Seeing as Darkest Dungeon 2 is out, I thought I’d have another play of the old version before I decide if I want to buy the new one. Mostly, the game was hard but awesome. Against that, it has the worst, the most annoying inventory management game of anything I have ever
