Bluey's Quest for the Gold Pen is, understandably, an extremely straightforward action-adventure game that will appeal to the children who have made the show so popular. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social Our review: monstervine.com/2026/05/blue...

I can't believe I'm the highest score on Metacritic, haha. If you told me that when I was reviewing any Bubsy game over the last decade, I would have politely called you a crazed liar. Big props to Fabraz for redeeming Bubsy with such a fun game!!

Given the franchise's history, Busby 4D shocked me with how exceptional it is as a game. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social @fabraz.bsky.social @atari.com Our review: monstervine.com/2026/05/bubs...

Table Flip Simulator has a lot of creative and satisfying ideas at play, but they’re hidden under an unpolished presentation and some pretty brutal writing. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social Our review: monstervine.com/2026/05/tabl...

sports should always have anime characters present, imo

Kiln looks great and has a creative idea at its base, but it gets old fairly quickly and doesn’t seem, like it’ll have the longest shelf life. - spencer-legacy.bsky.social Our review: monstervine.com/2026/05/kiln...

Directive 8020 explores enthralling themes and serves up some aesthetically pleasing scares, but its overreliance on bland stealth sections and janky pacing hold the game back. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social Our review: monstervine.com/2026/05/dire...

Mixtape is a fantastic game that celebrates how a specific period of time can intertwine with music to craft a memorable and touching story. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/05/mixt...

Wild excerpt from my Grade 7 report card

Happy star wars day, may everybody experience the joy I feel when I think about The Phantom Menace and how cool it is

whenever I'm editing AceBonanza videos for days on end, I become like Sam at the end of Return of the King when he's trying to encourage Frodo to finish the climb

Actually feeling stoked about the Resident Evil movie. Still gotta watch Weapons (free time is near, I swear I will watch it) but Barbarian was incredible and I'm glad the movie is doing its own thing instead of poorly adapting a cool game. Every quote from Cregger makes me think he seems to get it

this frame of fry is great

We’re back with Day 2 of PAX East 2026 interviews and chaos. Please watch this years Red Bull bit towards the end 🙏

inKonbini: One Store. Many Stories is a beautifully chill and heartfelt game that really teleports you to a whole different time and place. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social @inkonbini.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/inko...

Moomintroll: Winter's Warmth is a relaxing and moving adventure game that people of all ages and all levels of Moomin fandom can equally enjoy. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social @hypergames.no monstervine.com/2026/04/moom...

start your week with the best ending theme

this is 100% true

gotta make some holy corpse pieces to give him

it's so messed up that I can't exchange my health for Yoshihiro Togashi's

One pleasant through-line in my life from basically early childhood to now is that the closest feeling I get to true bliss is when I'm reading shonen manga while eating a meal, it's simply so peak that it has stayed chill for 25+ years

Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is one of the weirdest and most absolutely endearing games I have ever played. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social Read: monstervine.com/2026/04/tomo... Watch: youtu.be/Mal4u6qA7UM

Dragon Quest Smash/Grow is a decent enough mobile game that will appeal to fans of the series who don’t mind gacha elements, though the story feels a bit generic when compared to other Dragon Quest games. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/drag...

yakuza 3????

Town of Zoz has a lot of great ideas and incredible presentation, but the overall stilted flow of combat stymies what could be a top-notch indie gem. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/town...

This paint store has had these GI Joe movie wall stickers getting cooked in the window for like 17 years lmao

what is this even an ad for

I've played a little Pokémon Champions before bed each night and, genuinely, I'm shocked at how much fun I'm having. Even losing feels exciting with how close it gets, and I've always been way more into dex-filling than battling

saw a One Piece live-action interview that said they don't have a permanent Sabo actor in mind yet, and I think it's incredibly kind of them to be waiting for me to have a six-pack so that I can knock the role out of the park

As someone who never took the whole plunge into competitive Pokémon, I felt very cool winning my first Pokémon Champions match with the Slowking I trained up back in 2013

I'm gonna be at Summer Games Fest this year, provided a satellite doesn't fall out of the sky and kill me or something! Shoot @williamsaw.bsky.social and I your cool appointment pitch emails so the @monstervine.com team can play your crazy video games in L.A. while boiling in the harsh American sun

KuloNiku: Bowl Up! is a fast-paced, cozy cooking game that blends a sharp anime aesthetic with pleasant writing to create a rather unique title. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social @kulonikugame.bsky.social @rawfury.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/kulo...

This is the big one :) Noisy Pixel Magazine is live!

Super Meat Boy 3D is an overall tight adaptation of the iconic Team Meat platformer into the squishier third dimension. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social @headup.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/supe...

Super Mario Bros. Wonder + Meetup in Bellabel Park is a grand upgrade to Super Mario Bros. Wonder, thanks to its noticeable visual improvements and an abundance of varied new content. - @spencer-legacy.bsky.social monstervine.com/2026/04/supe...
