My Reality Offline - Social Media, Mental Health & The Power of Asking ‘R U OK?’

I’ve been sharing a lot of goal-kicking recently, but I’ve been wanting to be a little more open about what’s been happening behind the scenes…. It inspired me to write this piece about my life off-camera in hopes that it might help someone else remember the reality of social media, reach out for help and/or know they’re not alone.

Knowing how daunting it was to try new things and being new to the gaming scene, typical game reviews just didn’t make sense to me. Yes, something might be scored as a 10/10, but I was asking different questions.

Project Winter ~ First Impressions

Project Winter by ‘Other Ocean Group’ just hit Xbox Game Pass today, and if one of my friends hadn’t mentioned this game to me, it would’ve flown completely under my radar.

An Unexpected Love for Resident Evil 2

You’re probably thinking ‘why on earth would she go play Resident Evil 2 if she’s such a scaredy-cat?!’ And look, you’re not wrong.

Rune Factory 4 Special Nintendo Switch ~ First Impressions

I’m almost upset I never got into Rune Factory when I used to have my 3DS years ago - how did I not know about it?!
