In which, I play seasonally-appropriate video games.

I don’t normally treat “spooky season” as a reason to do anything other than eating my own weight in pumpkin spice-flavored snacks, so it’s not common for me to bust out the horror games this time of year. That said, … Continue reading

Kinki Spiritual Affairs Bureau : What the heck did I just play?

So, the latest World of Warcraft expansion came out a couple of weeks ago, right when I was supposed to be studying for the JLPT. So I didn’t get very far into it until after the test. Now that I … Continue reading
