Hear ye, hear ye, extra, extra, or… Something like that. It’s news time. Time for the news. The time specifically set aside for you to read the news. That time. And what a great time it is! This Sunday, I’ll be telling the stranger-than-fiction tales…

Imagine the ability to scour through people’s dreams – able to scour through adventures, fantasy, and learn the many secrets of the mind. Caxton is just an ordinary student attending Solaris Notre University, but when he joins an escape group he learns of this special…
I’ve been sitting here trying to figure out how to start telling you about Paradigm; a bizarre looking adventure game from Jacob Janerka. At first I was going to say that I’ve never done mass amounts of coke, but if I had, and decided to…
A mobile MMORPG and TCG seems completely unheard of, and in fact, it’s such a rare combination to see. But Eminence: Xander’s Tales, developed by London-based Aeterna Studios, is something I’ve never seen before. In Eminence: Xander’s Tales, players are able to explore a virtual…
Kickstarter is an interesting microcosm of personalities; especially from a developer standpoint. You’ve got scammers, industry professionals, amateurs, kids, dreamers, and everything in-between.
