Roadwarden Review: A Modern Classic

Roadwarden feels like something that should have been part of the canon of great text based RPGs. A modern classic of the fantasy genre utterly confident in its players.

Lake Title

Lake Review: Methodically Mellow Mail Delivery

It would be easy to dismiss Lake as another example of the “Pastoral Saviour” genre, akin to Animal Crossing/Stardew Valley. A stressed city slicker takes a break and goes out to the country to find themselves, their love and reset their life. They fix their life, and bring a little modern culture back to the boonies. You know this plot, because it’s also every other Hallmark movie.  But that would be doing Lake a disservice. Because it is sort of that, but presented so beautifully and interrogated in such a meaningful way that it’s hard not to fall for the quiet pines and placid Lake.
