Kaku: Ancient Seal Review

You groan, awakening in a quiet icy cave, the only sound the slow drip of snow melting from the suns direct rays. How did you even end up here? There was… a strange flying….was it a pig you were chasing? No, nooooooo- it couldn’t be. Pigs don’t fly, or have ears THAT big. What WAS real, however, was the VERY large, VERY angry boar who had chased you a good half mile, if not more- ultimately leading to your current situation after an "unfortunate misstep".With a grunt, you pull yourself up. Looking around the cave, glimmering with ice and snow, the hole in the cave ceiling

Exophobia Review

Darkness.The soft hum of a ships idle system. Your body tingles, pins and needles against your skin- how long has it been since you moved last? Against your better judgment, you will your eyes to open- a hiss escaping your lips as your lids part, the harsh lights burning your sensitive pupils.Inhale- breathe.Your stomach contorts- uneasy. The heavy, putrid smell of rotten meat is mingled with something else. Something almost sickly-sweet, like a thick cherry liqueur. There is an undertone of rotten eggs, and a faint note of garlic. Instinctively you curl your hand into a tight fist, clenching your own

First Dwarf Review

A sharp crack of thunder pierced the thick, dark veil of clouds, reverberating through the sky as an arc of lightning followed. The lightning illuminated a lone airship, piloted by a fiery-haired dwarf. His gloved fingers tightened on the wheel, the leather squeaking in protest as he struggled to stay on course. In the dim light of the storm, small, black beady eyes peered at him from cages—messenger ravens bristling in protest at their temporary confinement, the supernatural storm permeating the air around them. Another crack of thunder split the sky, sending purple tendrils with white-hot centers crawling through the clouds

Deck of Souls Review

The wind whistles past, your armour rattling at the sheer momentum of the descent. Falling…Down… Down… Down… Down… Down… Down… Down…Down… Down… CRACK! A plume of dust and splintered wood, the smell of rot and decay break your fall- if only temporarily- to begin the journey anew. Down… Down…Down...THUD!Your metal casing clatters on the impact- a puff of dust, scattering of stone; the stale stench of death and bleached white bone. Your body aches at the rough departure from above. You’re weak, but far from finished. As you pull yourself up, you hear the nearing clank of steel, the scrape of chalky osseous
