Finished ‘Dispatch’ last night and it’s easily one of the best games released in 2025.
For a $30 graphic-adventure, it truly nails everything, enticing players to keep playing from ep. to ep.
The story never stops & the gameplay is very engaging. Would 100% recommend 🔥🔥

10 Games To Get To Know Me 🎮
From childhood classics to some of my favorite games of all-time, it was tough picking ONLY ten games that represent “me.” Could have easily went up to twenty but these ten are truly special ✨

Published a new article on Medium called "𝐕𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐆𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐀𝐫𝐞 𝐆𝐞𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐓𝐨𝐨 𝐄𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐯𝐞." With the rise of console prices and software stagnating between $70-$80, has the hobby become too much for the average consumer?
