Mogwai: If the Stars Had a Sound is a love letter to fans
Having been a fan of Mogwai‘s music for over 20 years, I was delighted when given the chance to watch and review their brand new documentary. It is called If The Stars Had A Sound, which is a line taken from a recording that opens their debut studio album Mogwai Young Team, with the next […]
Tidebreaker review
If you follow Tidebreaker’s creator, Nick Butler, he always presents as a humble, down-to-Earth, and positive guy. These qualities come through in the game’s writing.
It says Shadowrun on the cover: A review of Shadowrun 6e
This is a guest review from John Tuckey, and he is not a fan of the newly released Shadowrun 6e.
Fixing the Fighter: A review of Path of War
It’s generally accepted that one of the flaws of Dungeons & Dragons 3rd edition was the all-powerful dominance of spell-casters at higher levels. For many, as a quick visit to the Paizo forums will show, the need to fix the Fighter is still an issue with its ultimate successor, Pathfinder. Path of War is Dreamscarred […]
A New Way for an Old System: A Review of Nova Praxis, Savage Worlds Edition

Before I delve too deep, I want to take a moment to explain my focus for this review. I’m a systems geek. Most […]
A review of the Murdoch Mysteries – Let Loose the Dogs
Once again, I have been tasked (albeit a happy one) with a review of another Murdoch Mystery. Once again I have had the opportunity to visit Toronto in the 1890’s and catch up with Detective William Murdoch (who is a thoroughly nice guy), and life is still hard and the weather cold. In this latest […]

Luckily for me, instead of discounting the novel as some form of sacrilege, recently I had my views broadened from reading an interesting article from […]
