Hiya! I'm Lord Ice!

Completion dates predating April 26, 2021 are murky or lost to the recesses of my mind, so don't expect to see many dates before then.

Strict review criteria? Yeah I don't have that. Ratings are purely a judgment call.

Also, I only count compilations once all the games in that compilation are beat (i.e. I will beat and log every Super Mario Bros game in All Stars separately and then log All Stars with the final game).

Goofy little game. Honestly the movement was really fun and the humor was right up my alley, but there's only four main levels and they're very small and lifeless. The game is painfully short, and there's not much to keep me playing it.

I don't really have a lot to say about this game. It's very tightly designed with kickass levels that are surprisingly fun to dick around in even if you're not chasing better times. I think the writing, while nothing amazing, is a lot more charming than people give it credit for. And on top of that, the music is alright. It's fitting for the game and really good, but I've seen the sentiment thrown around that it's not music you'd choose to listen to anywhere else, and I'd have to agree with that assessment.

I'm not an FPS guy. It's not a genre I really enjoy spending my time in. However, The Finals has managed to become the one FPS I truly love. Destructible environments are always fun. The modes seem really unique. The gadgets and specializations are really fun. It's just an overall really fun game that I enjoy playing alone or with my friends.
