Monster Kingdom: Jewel Summoner is a passable game. I would even have deemed it “pretty good” if the endgame hadn’t dragged on interminably.

Riviera: The Promised Land
I got nostalgic for Riviera: The Promised Land, so I’ve been playing it on and off for the past couple of months. I just finished my third and a half playthrough of this game and got Serene’s ending for the second time. Since I’ve played it so often, I don’t have much to say about […]
