Many Faces – Review | A Faceless Shooter

Dungeon Of The Endless – Review | Ball-Bustingly Difficult
Introduction When one mentions Roguelikes and the Nintendo Switch in the same sentence, it is not uncommon for the masses to roll their eyes. Even as an avid Roguelike fan, I am guilty of this myself. Oversaturation is not a strong enough word to describe the state of the eShop. Grotesquely engorged congestion may be […]
