Spiritfarer

There are a lot of games that intrigue me the moment I see them. Usually, they have something different about them from what is currently trending, and other times, they just have a very appealing style, and it draws me like a magnet. For me, both of these things happened when I first heard about Spiritfarer. I was not expecting the sudden release of the indie game, and I bought it immediately, (somewhat) setting aside Animal Crossing to delve into the world. Developed by Thunder Lotus, Spiritfarer explores a topic difficult for most to swallow—that of death.

Animal Crossing: New Horizons

Last time I checked, I was up to something like 1,140+ hours in this game. Animal Crossing: New Horizons is, to say the least, a game I have been looking forward to for a long time, and a series I really enjoy. One island wasn't enough for me, so I even bought a Switch Lite so I could create a second one. Just what is it about this game that is so appealing? Let's find out!

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Why talk about this game as my first video game post? Well, partially because it was my first Switch game, but also because it is still relevant. This game has been broken by speedrunners, modded with crazy additions, and replayed by most of my friends. I feel that it would be a disservice to not begin with Breath of the Wild, the launch title for the console.

A Change of Focus

It's been years, but now I'm back. Cue the big band trumpets from Pink Martini's "But Now I'm Back" and imagine me dancing around with gusto. I am back because I have been somewhat inspired to direct my focus to video game posts. I know there are very thorough game reviews and reviewers all over the internet from sources like Polygon and IGN, but if you're here, you want to know what I think of games, and that is what you will find.

I cannot promise that I will be very consistent with posts, but I will be reviewing Nintendo Switch games exclusively. I'll be going through my library and letting you know what I think of past purchases, current games I am playing, and even games I am looking forward to in the future. This is not to convince you to play the game necessarily, just to give a different perspective to the game you might not know. If you do happen to buy a game though, that would be an added bonus!

There may be the occasional non-video game post in the future, so if you liked some of my other posts, they may also make a resurgence. Only time will tell. Regardless, now that I have made my first post after this hiatus, I hope you will be excited to see what I post next!
