How to Play Wingspan – A Tutorial for Beginners

Wingspan is an exciting concept from top to bottom. It involves all manner of birds in either a card-driven board game or a cross-platform video game--both essentially based on the same original concept. Bird lovers want everything to do with this game, me included, and with the different ways to play, who can resist?

Catlateral Damage is a game from Itch.IO that is so simple in concept, but so enjoyable that way! I also know it is time for another review!

Burnstar is a Bargain Rogue-Like on Nintendo Switch

This is one of those games that doesn’t have a sweeping lore setup for burning a bunch of junk. It’s just cool looking, fun, and the sound design is funkalicious. You can play this game either as a single-player or co-op. I think co-op would probably be easier, but I did alright on single-player. This game is $2 you have nothing to lose really.
