Month in Review: October 2020

Thanks to the second lockdown (personal at least), I have had quite a lot of time this month to work on the blog behind the scenes. It allowed for a rush of articles near the start of the month, as I had time off from work. This was also the time where I received the … Continue reading Month in Review: October 2020 →

Two Player Quests

Many of us, including my good self, picked up this game because we were attracted to the fact that you could play this game by yourself. But many more purchased this game because it could facilitate two or more players, especially because it is a cooperative game. Now I am all for the Solo experience, … Continue reading Two Player Quests →
