Bad Hop Baseball

February 22, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Bad Hop Baseball is a simple pachinko game with a baseball theme. Each game is 3 innings, and you score runs by getting the ball into slots marked Single, 2B, 3B, and HR. Everything else is an out. The physics bring Peggle to mind, but there's no powers and no series of levels here; you just play...

A Way Out

February 19, 2023 | Reading time: 2 minutes

A Way Out is a co-op only adventure/puzzle game about two men breaking out of prison. It's definitely a unique experience; beyond being co-op only, the game is also in splitscreen almost 100% of the time, so you can always see exactly what your partner is doing.

Hogwarts Legacy

February 11, 2023 | Reading time: 2 minutes

Hogwarts Legacy is the Harry Potter game I've always wanted to play. It frees itself from the shackles of the main series by setting itself 100 years before the events of the books, and in doing so becomes something much greater than previous HP games. Not merely a movie tie-in or a licensed game...

Void Bastards

February 4, 2023 | Reading time: ~1 minute

Void Bastards is a roguelike shooter where you travel to procedurally generated spaceships and salvage parts from them. It plays fine enough, but it didn't really grip me.

Barro is a technically playable arcade racer with a a decent selection of tracks all with a desert theme.

NBA 2K23

I love sports, and growing up I had to have every yearly release for all of the major sports. As I've gotten older I don't buy the games every single year, but every once in a while I have a craving to play a sports game. There's just something about them that other games can't match: the...

About

My name's Mike, and this is the Lore Depository - my spot online where I can write out my thoughts on games, books, tech, movies, and anything else I find interesting.

My biggest project is my Game Library Project. I have a ton of games collected throughout the years, and have barely played any of them. Check out the linked post to learn more about the project, and click here to be taken to the category page where you can see all my posts for the project.

Another project I'm working on is my Pokemon Living Dex Challenge, where I try to obtain one of each available Pokemon and transfer them into Pokemon Home.

Yet another project I'm working on is my Old School RuneScape "Completionist" Quest, where I'm attempting to max out all skills and see everything the game has to offer as a completely new player.

Other content comes mainly in 3 forms:
• Reviews, where I post longer-form review writeups
• Thoughts, short & quick first impressions posts
• Guides, detailed how-tos and walkthroughs
