During his time at Invision he has reviewed a large number of games and peripherals, attended 2021's digital E3 conference and served as a judge in the 2022 Crunchyroll Anime Awards.

Broken Sword 5: The Serpent’s Curse Review (Nintendo Switch)

De Blob Review (Nintendo Switch)

Immortal Redneck Review

If you know me well, you’ll know I’m a bit of a fan of ancient history, particularly the Ancient Egyptian and Norse eras. Whilst it’s been heartening to see those eras visited recently by Assassins Creed and God of War…
