A NOTE ABOUT COVID-19
We just want to remind everyone to check up on the older or more isolated people in their lives. There are many organizations that can enable you to volunteer or help others at this time so please do check your local listings to see how you can get involved.
WHAT WE’RE PLAYING/REVIEW:
Amanda has been playing a gritty detective game that’s a cross between Telltale and L.A. Noire. She recommends it if you like an atmospheric detective game.
NO! Just no. Amanda finds this game stressful and horrendous. Stacey mentioned it could end relationships lol. The cooking sim is only recommended if you like timer-based challenges.
Amanda says, “Not today, Satan.”
Stacy says, “I don’t think it’s that bad.”
Underwater day/night cycle survival game that is beautiful. Stacey would hate it. There are some scary bits to it.
Amanda says, “Explore in the day if you’re scared.”
Nope, the graphics just don’t hold up according to Amanda. She didn’t buy a 55 inch TV to look at substandard graphics. Sorry.
Amanda says, “Delete.”
Stacy says, “I remember the story being good, though…”
Oh boy, this game is the definition of don’t judge a book by its cover. It’s relaxing, man. Sure, the character models aren’t the best, but who cares when the fish are so fun to catch!
Amanda says, “Yeehaw!”
Blizzard has announced that XP in World of Warcraft will be boosted by 100% until April 20, 2020. This is great news for all of us in self-isolation.
Binding of Isaac developer Edmund McMillen has put together a sick bundle of $160 worth of games for under 20 bucks. Titles include The End is Nigh, The Legend of Bum-Bo and The Basement Collection.
