Atelier Resleriana: The Red Alchemist & The White Guardian Game Review

Oct 25, 12:00 games

I wouldn’t recommend it as your first Atelier game, but franchise fans should have a good time. ― How many Atelier games have you played? I don't ask to establish credibility or as a form of gatekeeping, but rather because the designers of Atelier Resleriana: the Red Alchemist and the White Guardian are counting on you having more than a passing familiarity with previous entries in the franchise.

Playing Death Games to Put Food on the Table Volume 1 Light Novel Review

Oct 24, 12:00 novels

It’s easy to see why this won the Excellence Award at the 18th MF Bunko J Light Novel Newcomer Awards in 2022, and why it’s getting an anime in 2026. ― Playing Death Games to put Food on the Table (henceforth DG) is far from the first time there's been a story about death games as a perverse form of entertainment for a shadowy group of elites who bankroll them. In fact, that's a major element of Squi...

There's no shame, there's no overly depressing conflict, just a nice story at a resort that I really hope I'll be able to return to one day. ― Despite its incredibly short length, the first season of Pokémon Concierge was an absolutely charming delight that I could recommend to almost anybody.
