We finally learned how to play Dominos, and that’s a fun game. Good job, millions upon millions of people who’ve played Dominos forever!

Now that sticks are only moderately […]
Read More August 19th – 25thWe just got the game Heat Signature, and it’s extremely neat! It’s an stealth-action game where you play any of a bunch of randomly-generated characters who live on asteroid space-stations and spend their time doing odd jobs involving all sorts of cool things. During the action you can pause to consider your next action whenever […]
Read More August 12th – 18thThis is a cute little game: https://adamgryu.itch.io/a-short-hike! It isn’t locally created but it is cute and that is great! More games should be about being a cute bird.

Read More July 1st – 7thHope you have a great week! We had a busy weekend and we’re really looking forward to a nice game of Root later in the week. Also we finished Cadence of Hyrule!

Read More June 24th – 30thWhoa! We started playing the extremely fun Cadence of Hyrule! It’s Crypt of the Necrodancer, only in Zelda. It’s all the neatness of the Crypt of the Necrodancer’s beating up baddies to the beat, only now you get to see cute little Bokoblins getting down to your beatdown! Anyway we started like hours ago and […]
