Those of you who are regular watchers of the channel will know that I have come to enjoy MechWarrior Online. A lot, in fact. So much so, hardly any other game in my library is getting a look in. Which is unusual for me - an individual who loves his real and turn based strategy, […]
Yes! Another year has gone by like a Formula 1 car on amphetamine, but not without its fair share of great games that have not only featured on the channel but I have also enjoyed in private. As we come to the finish flag of 2020, a supernatural year of sorts, allow me to reminisce […]
Here is a genre I had no experience in until last year, and I very quickly fell in love with. Better still, it appears that the roguelike deckbuilder appears to be here to stay. Just when you think the hype over one game has started to drop, another comes along and the train gets going […]
Kards is an outstanding free to play CCG with a good community and supportive developers. Matchmaking is fair, with new players playing other new players, while those with tons of experience play with others at the top. As ever with these kind of games, time and patience will unlock a wider range of cards, allowing […]
As users of Steam, we all do it. We peruse the gazillion amount of games in the catalog and a game catches our interest. Once you've seen the trailer, read the description, you then want to read the reviews. You've already seen that most of the reviews are positive, but you soon drill down to […]
It's that time of year again. That time where I round up my year of gaming, highlighting the best and worse of what I've played in the last 12 months, presented to you, the potentially interested reader, here. 2019 year has been a really good mix of games, with one or two really standing out. […]
When I started streaming, I had no idea where it would go and what would be involved. Four years later, 280 followers, a handful of awesome subscribers, and a community grew into a place called PlanetRask. Through PlanetRask I have met some frigging great people, many I hope will be friends for many years to […]
2012 Do my eyes deceive me....The Flower Kings are actually releasing a new album this year? That is the most awesome news I've heard in a while! And even better, they will be doing a live tour too...2012 is turning out to be a great year... Banks of Eden Banks of Eden is only five […]
Circa 2003 I honestly cannot remember a time when I felt more inclined to be part of a fan club than now. If I recall correctly, it was called the World of Adventures (please can someone correct me if I'm wrong!) but I remember paying an annual subscription which granted me a fan club CD […]
In the modern Progressive Rock world, The Flower Kings are one of the biggest names, if not the biggest. In my world, they are my all time favourite group. Today, I want to pay tribute to them and their music, and what their music has meant to me in the last eighteen years. July 2001, […]
2018 is almost at a close, and it's been a truly eventful year, in gaming as well as in life. So let's start from the top shall we? The beginning of 2018 saw me tearing myself away from 7 Days To Die and heading back to the usual, go to strategy games Offworld Trading Company […]
I've had the game for years, but recently I completed the super difficult Mortain: Counterattack mission of the US campaign. This compelled me to go ahead and complete as many campaigns as I could. But here's the thing - I wanted to find out how many missions were in each campaign and unless I'm doing […]
Well, that is it! Another year passes. A highly charged year of insane politics and clashes of ideologies cannot hide the fact that actually, it's been a pretty fantastic year of gaming. Here are my gaming highlights (or what I am going to call my Raskup. Get it? Roundup? Raskup? Ahh forget it :D) of […]
A little gem of an experience can be found while trawling through the extensive list of games on Steam called "Dear Esther". While not strictly a game, it requires player interaction in order to complete it. But you're not competing against anything, you are simply playing the role of a narrator of a story that […]
