I’ve recently finished playing “Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened” – the latest Frogwares Sherlock game – and it’s safe to say my opinions on it are mixed. Instead of a full-blown review, I thought it better to rank the game’s chapters individually. There are eight chapters (not cases, like in “Crimes and Punishments”, but instalments inContinue reading ““Sherlock Holmes: The Awakened” – Every Chapter Ranked”

The Evil Within 1 VS 2 – Which Game Is Better?
Thanks to Epic Games releasing both games for free during the Halloween season, I finally got the chance to play The Evil Within and its sequel. I had a good time with both games, as each one demonstrated how to get survival horror right, but some aspects varied in quality across both entries. I’ll beContinue reading “The Evil Within 1 VS 2 – Which Game Is Better?”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Lost Turnabout” (Justice For All – Case 1)
After the success of the first game, Shu Takami – Ace Attorney’s primary writer – was ordered by Capcom to make an entire trilogy. After months of writing and re-writing, and after being rushed by tight deadlines, it wasn’t long before “Justice For All” released in Japan. Its first case “The Lost Turnabout” has aContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “The Lost Turnabout” (Justice For All – Case 1)”
Modern Frogwares Games Ranked (Sherlock Holmes & The Sinking City)
For some reason, I just keep coming back to Frogwares’ games. They’re a developer I’ve come to respect despite their inconsistent releases, and I have a love-hate relationship with their Sherlock series (and “The Sinking City” as well). I’ll be ranking all five “modern” Frogwares titles, i.e. from “Crimes and Punishments” onwards as I feltContinue reading “Modern Frogwares Games Ranked (Sherlock Holmes & The Sinking City)”
The Office – Season 7 Episodes Ranked
After another long break, I finally got around to watching Season 7 of The Office – Michael’s farewell season. Is it an overall improvement from the steadily declining quality we’ve seen so far? And how would I rank all 24 episodes? Before we begin, you can check out some of my related blog posts below:Continue reading “The Office – Season 7 Episodes Ranked”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Rise from the Ashes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 5)
Originally a bonus case added to mark the Nintendo DS release of the first game, “Rise from the Ashes” sees Phoenix and Edgeworth battle in the courtroom once more to take on their toughest challenge yet. I have a thing or two to say about this one … so it’s time for a comprehensive DeepContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Rise from the Ashes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 5)”
Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Goodbyes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 4)
Originally the final case of the first game, “Turnabout Goodbyes” saw the DL-6 Incident come to its conclusion in dramatic manner. For many, this is the case that first displayed Ace Attorney’s immense storytelling capabilities – but will it hold up to an intensive Deep Dive? I’ll be deconstructing the case in ten distinct categoriesContinue reading “Ace Attorney Deep Dive: “Turnabout Goodbyes” (Phoenix Wright – Case 4)”
The Case of the Golden Idol – Every Level Ranked (Including DLC)
“The Case of the Golden Idol” is one of those detective / mystery / deduction games that has to be played to be believed – a bit like “Return of the Obra Dinn”. Without going into too many spoilers, the idea is that you’re following the journey of a mysterious object while solving frozen-in-time deathsContinue reading “The Case of the Golden Idol – Every Level Ranked (Including DLC)”
The Office – Season 6 Episodes Ranked
After five full seasons on the air, The Office started to show some cracks in its sixth season. This might be an unpopular opinion, but I think the golden age of the show is long gone by this point. That’s not to say I didn’t laugh at some of these episodes … just that IContinue reading “The Office – Season 6 Episodes Ranked”
It’s Always Sunny – Season 16 Episodes Ranked
Sunny came back with a bang for its sixteenth season – fans had their complaints about the past few seasons (I really liked Season 15 personally, but maybe that’s just me …) but everyone seems to love this latest instalment. I know I say this every year, but that’s impressive after almost two decades onContinue reading “It’s Always Sunny – Season 16 Episodes Ranked”
