Inscryption, I went in expecting a short card based escape room with a lil bit of meta story. I found so much more, by the end the risk investment was great!

    What an incredible game. I went in totally blind so I had no idea what to expect. I definitely did NOT expect to love the actual card game itself as much as I did. It opened my mind up to trying other card games.

    More people gotta play his other masterpiece, “The Hex”! Another game where you get wayyy more than you… eh, I don’t wanna spoil anything. Anyone reading this who liked Inscryption, go play The Hex now. Don’t watch the trailer, the weird art style will make sense like 20 minutes into the game. It’s incredible.

    Super excited for Pony Island 2 mayyyybe this year!

    I really enjoyed it but I found the pay off of all the meta stuff to be a bit lacking. The first section though was some of the best atmospheric game I have ever played. I especially didn't appreciate needing to watch a couple of YouTube videos to "finish the story". I did appreciate what it was trying to do and the first part of the game with Leshy was truly excellent.
