Video Game Review – Dark Nights with Poe and Munro

by

Calum Petrie reviews Dark Nights with Poe and Munro… D’avekki Studios have an extremely impressive line up of FMV games under their belts.

by

Calum Petrie reviews Critical Role: Vox Machina Origins Vol. 3 #2… As we return to Exandria, the legends of Vox Machina grow more righteous (or notorious) by the day.

by

Calum Petrie reviews Young Hellboy: The Hidden Land #3… Issue #3 of this bizarre caper takes us from the strange and the alien, straight into the darkness and horror.

Comic Book Review – Dragon Age: Dark Fortress #1

by

Calum Petrie reviews Dragon Age: Dark Fortress #1… The expansive and deep world of Dragon Age is a joy to delve into, and any chance to submerge myself in more history, lore and mythology from this property can only be a good thing.

Comic Book Review – The Witcher: Fading Memories #4

by

Calum Petrie reviews The Witcher: Fading Memories #4… I am very much a fan of the world in which The Witcher takes place, though the reason is a strange one. I enjoy how harrowing everything can be, and when a moment of joy or happiness is found then there is more than likely a terrible […]
