Bob Richardson's Reviews

Lover of ideas and stories that improve one's life. Thinks games can be art. Enjoys the budding scholarly research being done to illustrate the inherent benefits of gaming. Life is meant to be enjoyed; please be kind to others, especially those different from yourself in thought or person.

A heartfelt story that demonstrates the positive impact online relationships and communities can have on people. A must-play.

This is a highly niche title that expects a lot from the player but gives back in equal measure if you have the time and energy.

A fast paced and addicting action RPG that falls into routine a little too quickly.

A beautiful and heartfelt historical fiction with heavy themes of religion, purpose, and the influence we have on others over time.

Folks who enjoy lower-shelf humor will find much to enjoy here. Turn your brain off and you may find some fun to be had.
