A resolute miss: 👎 Crom the GameBook review

July 26, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

I don’t aspire to be mean, but I need to give a fair warning here, I don’t consider Crom the GameBook to be fit for publication.

Chronicles of the Monkey God: Me and the Monkey review

July 25, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I don’t think it’s inappropriate to describe “Me and The Monkey” as The Laundry Files meets Fight Club.

A world of machines: A review of Horizon Zero Dawn – Liberation #1

July 20, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I know Horizon Zero Dawn, of course. The game looked gorgeous, the trailer compelled my internet, and Aloy is a kick-ass hero.

D&D transformed: A review of Matthew Colville’s Kingdoms & Warfare

July 19, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Matt Colville’s 5e D&D-does-battles supplement is 320-pages long, but I’m pleased to say you don’t need to learn a 320-page wargame to get the most out of it. Not even close.

July 18, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

The deep dark world: A review of Sigil & Shadow by Osprey Games

July 14, 2021 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Sigil & Shadows is a game of urban fantasy and occult horror. Characters are either the Illuminated or the Shadowed. The first defy the odds to protect the innocent from these dangers, and the second, the Shadowed, accept the darkness and, at best, become anti-heroes.
