Steps forward: A review of Bigfootloose and Finn Fancy Free

March 10, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I enjoyed Finn Fancy Necromancy. The adventure followed a necromancer returned to our world after being imprisoned in the fae world for a crime he didn’t commit. It was largely humorous, sometimes a bit too zany for me and rather nicely flirted with a touch of darkness now and then. The hero, after all, is […]

Kill your favourite character: A review of Akame Ga Kill

March 6, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood 2 Comments

The anime kicks off as we meet Tatsumi travelling on the road. He swiftly steps into the role of hero by taking on a fearsome and dangerous creature – an Earth dragon – and in doing so demonstrates he’s quite some swordsman. It’s interesting to note that that earth dragon isn’t called a monster. None […]

For your magic library: A review of Harry Potter – The Character Vault

March 4, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

There’s no doubt that Harry Potter – The Character Vault is a companion book that Harry Potter fans will treasure. Produced by Titan Books the Character Vault benefits from the publisher’s long experience in making collectible hardback accessories for movies, TV shows and games. The goal each time is to re-create the familiar, in this […]

Irregular Reconnaissance: Anime #18

March 1, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

What’s Irregular Reconnaissance anyway? It’s a Geek Native column that offers a quick review catch-up up on a half-dozen or so anime titles. It’s a chance to find out […]

Irregular Reconnaissance: Anime #17

February 23, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Time of a round-up of mini anime reviews! It’s Irregular Reconnaissance. The goal here is to give you a quick catchup on the various anime series that are still holding my attention – or an alert on what’s gone horribly wrong and is about to get dumped. Why? So many anime. So little time. Sometimes […]

Dark fantasy with destiny – A review of WITCH: Fated Souls

February 17, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

Witch: Fated Souls first popped onto my radar when Angry Hamster took it to Kickstarter. They wanted €4,500 and raised nearly €16,000 instead. A successful Kickstarter does not mean the resulting RPG will be any good. Let’s download a copy of Witch and take a look. From the outset it is clear this is an […]

Beautiful chaos: A review of Evangelion: 3.33 You Can (Not) Redo

February 14, 2016 by Andrew Girdwood Leave a Comment

I like Evangelion. I like Misato, Rei, Asuka and Risuko. Truth be told; I’ve never been that much of a fan of Shinji Ikari because he whines a lot. I feel as I’ve made some allies by the time this, the third movie, rolls around. Few of the survivors really like Shinj either. This is […]
