I’m sure I’m not the only person who is familiar with calling Christmas the Silly Season. It’s a fairly common turn of phrase. Whether it’s because the kinds are running amuck during the school holidays after eating one too many candy canes or you’ve had one too many beers at the office Christmas party, I’m…
While most of the games I’ve reviewed this week have been reasonably low cost, I’m aware that some people don’t have huge budgets to pay for games. Particularly at this time of year, where people’s budgets need to extend to other things, there may be those looking for a few free-to-play options to help their…
Those that have been on the site for a while know that I enjoy my fair share of retro-computing. The Wolfenstein franchise has made an appearance on the site a few times, particularly as a retrospective look at the original Wolfenstein 3D game. While this particular game might be a year old now, it caught…
I think it’s time to add another child-friendly game into the mix. By its very name, you can tell this is a slightly older game. We’ve done that a few times here on GeekJabber, so what’s one more going to do? After all, it came out in January 2019 – so technically nearly a month…
One of the big things I enjoy about Christmas is the excitement and enjoyment that the kids in the family have when unwrapping their presents. While Christmas means different things to different people, you can’t escape the joy you get from gift giving and seeing the excitement of kids seeing the stack of presents under…
Ghost Case came onto my radar when looking through one of my discovery queues in Steam. I’ve been meaning to check out a few horror themed games to see what else the genre has to offer, and being recently released and low cost, this seemed to be a reasonable option. Ghost Case seems to be…
Beholder 2 came to my attention when I was looking around Humble Bundle. This is something I’m prone to do every now and again to try and experiment with different genres and games without having to part with huge amounts of money. I’m sometimes a cheap bastard. I’m not sure there should be any shame…
I’ve spent a lot more time than I care to think about playing Age of Empires 2. It was this version of the game that got me addicted to this particular franchise. I dare not think about how much time I have sunk into learning these games or how much money I’ve invested in the…
Why did the computer go to the doctor? It had a slipped disk. Anyone who knows me knows I’m a bit of a fan of a good cringey dad joke even though I’m not a father. Bad puns and awful limericks are more entertaining than we give them credit for. I’ve written material before in…
If you remember back to Retro Week, I covered an early version of Carmageddon. In this review, I made reference to the remake that was released a couple of years ago. I think it’s about time that I covered the remake in a lot more detail. There are a few reasons for this. One is…
