Rebel Galaxy - The Friday FREE GAME Feature!


Rebel Galaxy is an open world trading and combat game set in sci-fi space. Your aunt sent you a ship and a message to meet her at a space station to discuss an unusual artifact. Things don't quite go to plan when you arrive, and now you're going to have to work and/or pay for information.

In addition to my comments found at 4:21:36 in the video above, I must add that the music for this game is exceptionally good. I also have to agree with some of my viewers that the side missions can get repetitive pretty fast. That said, the VOD should give you a good idea if this is a game you'd enjoy.

I'm Now Streaming On DLive Too!

Restream had an important update which fully integrates DLive into their multistreaming platform. I've been holding back on streaming to DLive until Restream chat was working with it, and now it does!

In addition to my current platforms, you can now watch me at https://dlive.tv/Shenans starting tonight at 9pm ET!

June '19 Mighty Minis - Minecraft 10th Anniversary Magnet


This month's Mighty Mini is one of the largest yet! In honor of Minecraft's 10th anniversary (and the recent toppling of Tetris for highest selling game of all time), I give you my take on the "10 Years" design in Perler mini beads.

Kingdom: New Lands - The Friday FREE GAME Feature!


Kingdom: New Lands is a strategy game with the ultimate goal of protecting the crown from hordes of monsters. It plays like the original Kingdom, but includes much more content and multiple maps. My only real complaints about the original was that it lacked content and replayability, which New Lands heartily provides. You can hear more of my thoughts at 3:56:45 in the video above, but all you really need to know is that Kingdom: New Lands gets a thumbs up from me!

City of Brass (AND DEEPER) - The Friday FREE GAME Feature!


City of Brass is an action adventure roguelike with the goal of reaching the center of the city. You begin armed with a sword and a whip (which has several interesting uses), but can find a variety of other items available as you venture in. It's a neat game, but I personally prefer Ziggurat just a bit more. You can hear more of my thoughts on City of Brass at 2:23:56 in the video above.

BONUS GAME - DEEPER


Deeper is a dungeon crawler that replaces Diablo's character classes with dodge rolls and a speed multiplier. It's in open alpha, so expect a few bugs. If you'd like to see a playthrough with some developer commentary, it starts at 2:32:03 in the video.

The Sims 4 - The Friday FREE GAME Feature!


The Sims 4 is currently the latest in the popular life simulation series brought to you by Maxis/EA. As someone that hasn't played since the original Sims, I was interested in seeing how the series has grown. There's a lot of improvements to the graphics and UI, including a full rotating view. Characters have also been given many more features, both in terms of appearance and personality. 

Pretty much every aspect of the game has grown since its first incarnation, but not enough to make the game feel unrecognizable. The overall experience feels very much the same, and that's not a bad thing because The Sims was quite the charmer back in its day. You can hear more of my thoughts on the game at 4:12:48 in the video above.
