Transparency is important, so I’ll just say it. I don’t particularly like Sword Art Online.

What if you played a game against 12 others, where the winners prize is anything your heart desires. What if the aim of the game was to assassinate a fellow student? Sounds like a bit of tension would grow between the competitors, and in Riddle Story of Devil twelve girls are thrown together in a classroom setting […]

Nintendo’s venture into the smartphone app world is old news to most, but that doesn’t make it any less relevant. To be perfectly honest, I expected to burn […]
