Glass Masquerade Review – PlayStation 4
Shining StarThis is one that came at me out of nowhere. If you asked me before playing Glass Masquerade if the world of video games needed a jigsaw puzzle sim, I would have smacked you in the face. Video games are an active participation s...
Shikhondo – Soul Eater Review – PlayStation 4
