I finished Embracelet yesterday. Turned out to be a pretty fitting title for the game. You're following a seventeen year old boy named Jesper, who's going to visit his ailing grandfather. Sounds very much like the plot to Mutazione, but that's where the similarities end. His grandfather before dying gives him this magic bracelet that has ( Read more... )

I finally finished Creaks, or should I say I begrudgingly finished it, but I'll get to that. First the story. I didn't fully understand it, but you're playing as a boy who is busy studying or whatever he is doing in his room, when a noise keeps interrupting him. So, he goes to investigate and learns it's coming from behind the wall. He's able to ( Read more... )

Ugh. 2020. I remember when I did my year in review for 2019, I foresaw 2020 as being a year of change, but I had no idea the kind of change I was about to experience. I'm sure it was a horrible year for almost everyone. For me the pandemic wasn't the only reason. Sorry, but I have to say this now because I just found out yesterday my uncle Doug has ( Read more... )

Before I share my thoughts on the game, I thought I'd share the latest news and updates. First some bad news. My dad got a shocking call on Wednesday that he was being laid off. Yeah, it really sucks, but at the same time it's what he wanted and hoped for since he wants to retire. Now he's going to retire a little sooner than usual. But his whole ( Read more... )

So, I got really sick. It’s honestly no wonder -- I probably got it from Disneyland. Starting on the 7th, I came down with a fever. Usually I might get a slight fever in the first stages of a cold, so I didn’t think much of it at first, but then it got worse. I don’t think I realized how bad I was. When I took my temperature, I was shocked when it ( Read more... )

So we went to Disneyland yesterday. It was crowded, yes, but I found myself just enjoying all the holiday decorations and festive mood anyway. It was a nice day too. As promised last time, we went straight to the Haunted Mansion Holiday. This time we checked the Fastpass return times and it was from 12:25 to 1:25. Why they ran out of Fastpasses ( Read more... )

I finished Paradigm yesterday. It was bizarre, but in a good way. Ze plot: OK, I'm probably going to have a hard time explaining this one because it's so random, but it's set in a near future eastern European setting, and basically there's this company called Dupa Genetics run by a guy called Klas. He dreams of one day taking over the world and ( Read more... )

First I want to say a few words about Nelson Mandela, may he rest in peace. That man did so much to improve this world and paid a heavy price for it, yet he still fought on against all odds. He is an inspiration to us all and the world needs more people like him.

I saw Frozen last Saturday and I found it amazing. Since I first saw it I have not ( Read more... )

Over the past week or so I finished Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis. Then I played LOOM. I wish that game wasn't so short and the sequel(s) could have been made because I realize the plot doesn't make much sense. I've played that game many times and this is the first time I actually felt like I didn't have a clue what the game was about lol ( Read more... )
