Here's all the games I played in 2018, what's up, it's been a while, I only wrote one full review this year. I don't know if anyone else played anything.

This just serves as a reminder of how few games I played this year... But it looks like you skipped my personal GOTY, Slay the Spire. If deckbuilding interests you at all, it's a must-have, and it's coming to Switch this year (currently on Steam).

I'll look into that one, I've also heard a ton of good things about Into the Breach but haven't checked it out.

Thank you for your reviews! Your articles about games are the main way I vicariously enjoy games on systems I don't own (and I currently own zero systems!)

Thanks! I'll try to write more this year since I don't have any other large projects planned.

Switch is a really great indie machine for people like me that can't use their computers for games because they just can't detach being at the computer from working.

Final piece of the Year in Review: TV stuff.

Hey I'm writing about a whole big old decade now, there's going to be four articles covering movies and games from 2010-2019. I liked a lot of them. Tell me which ones you liked!!
