Video Game Review – Reversion: Chapter 3 – The Return

by

Red Stewart reviews Reversion: Chapter 3 – The Return for PC (Steam)… Point-and-click adventure titles have been a staple of computer gaming since the days of the DOS, their simple mechanics making them accessible to players of all ages and experiences.

Video Game Review – Ramiwo

by

Red Stewart reviews Ramiwo for PC (Steam)… Playing Ramiwo, I was unfortunately reminded of another indie title called Virginia. Like Ramiwo, it marketed itself as a walking simulator with a deep narrative, but the end result was more akin to an overly-ambitious animated film that ultimately failed thematically and artistically.

by

Red Stewart reviews the fifteenth episode of Black Lightning season 3… The word war is thrown around a lot in the penultimate episode of Black Lightning’s third season, yet I couldn’t help but be as disappointed by its prevalence as I was with War for the Planet of the Apes.
