reviews

these are my reviews, sorted alphabetically!

these are just my mini-reviews about games. i've got a lot more to say about some games compared to others, so some of these'll be pretty short lol.

a short hike
clear your mind with a satisfying hike.

ace attorney investigations: miles edgeworth
an unfortunate misstep.

blood domination
poorly handled, in every sense of the word.

call of duty (2003)
just flat uninteresting. not bad, just boring.

unfortunately, not for me...

celeste
please play it. please.

clustertruck
maybe the worst final impression a game can leave.

coffee talk
an impressively told narrative.

high difficulty, low fun...

influential, but sufficiently outdated.

doom (2016)
a visceral blast of adrenaline.

a damn good JRPG.

a simple, silly time with everyone's favorite detective!

another fun case for the froggiest detective.

the best case of frog detective's career, by far.

an adorable adventure, and nothing more :)

halo: combat evolved
at least it's got the hype moments...

hustle cat
cute cats, cute romance, but i want MORE...

a little unpolished, but beautiful nonetheless.

it's fine. just. fine.

undercooked, underbaked, the kitchen is burning.

how not to make silent protagonists.
