Gelluloid Domination is a fast-paced minimalist strategy game where you grow a network of cells. Start with a single fragile cell and expand across the network, assimilating rivals to grow your gel-powered army.
Evolve mutations, unlock new abilities, and fight off swarms of deadly pathogens. Adapt and conquer, expand or be consumed. Every decision shapes the network – will you achieve total domination?
The game features 80 (and growing) hand-crafted missions. Each mission introduces new strategic layers, from classic domination to survival challenges, reservoir fills, and race modes. Specialized cells – attack, defense, production, carrier, link, and vortex – reshape the battlefield.
AI opponents provide a fair yet relentless challenge. With adjustable difficulty, advanced tools like Continuous Send and Chain Linking, every match is a test of skill and strategy.
Recycling Center Simulator on Steam was sent to me by Balas Games and I have to be honest the idea of running a recycling center seemed a bit weird at first. I wasn’t sure how fun it would be to to cut deals with places to pick up trash, bring it back, and toss it into a sorting machine then into other machines to make different materials like crushed plastic or wood chips to sell.
Turns out, outside of a few annoyances like using the hand truck which you get used to fast, or having to carry plastic totes around which you can actually just throw a pretty good distance anyway, it is actually a lot of fun. I found myself just tossing on Spotify and letting my hired help do the sorting while I hopped in the truck to various places to pick up more stuff for them to sort and focus on the business side.
This brings me to my biggest complaint. The locations you go to are very much the same over and over again. There only seem to be a handful of places to visit. This is by no means a deal-breaker. You can unlock everything fairly quick if you rush but at a modest price point of $15, you will get your money’s worth. Definitely a 8/10 game. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Time Cut is one of those movies that the very concept made me feel old as hell. It takes place in 2024, a couple decades after her sister was brutally murdered by a serial killer.
Why does this make me feel old? Well she accidentally goes back in time to 2003. So the movie takes place when I am an adult, and goes back in time to when I was an adult. That hurts.
The actual movie however is..well it’s a movie. The acting is wonderful admittedly and the story starts out pretty well with a party and a great death scene. From there we get to meet Lucy,who for all intents and purposes seems to have been born in an attempt to replace her sister. The characters have great depth to them and the writing is fantastic.
The problem is when it comes down to the story itself and the actual killer reveal etc they do a very haphazard job of explaining the how and why the killer even existed in the first place. Don’t get me wrong, science is actually quite sound. The explanation however, without ruining it, is horrible.
That hurts for me to say I actually enjoyed the movie. They just dropped the ball in that one place which hurts the overall movie. I still recommend checking it out because if you have a fundamental idea of how it all works you will enjoy it. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.

Macross Shooting Insight on PS5 was sent to me by Red Art Games which I always appreciate. The game revolves around a series of Anime ( known as Macross or Robotech) that I honestly know nothing about, but it has its own story that will fill you in. It involves flying space mechs. During these space battles, you will collect power-ups that will allow songstresses to sing very catchy songs that will give you different boosts such as dealing or taking less damage as just two examples.
These battles range from side-scrolling to traditional top-down and even a top-down 3-directional type, all using the same basic and easy control scheme. The game itself isn’t easy but has very good accessibility options for those who just want to see the story play out. You can all skip the story entirely if you just want to get to the action.
Each character has different stats and weapons to use, as well as a different story to play through. The game isn’t limited to a simple story mode leaving plenty of replayability. You can take a boss rush mode or an arcade mode. With plenty to do my only real issue was the price. As much fun as I had it just doesn’t feel like a $40 game to me. at $20 I would absolutely recommend this game, it is a solid 7/10. At $40 however, I would wait for a sale. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
I am back today with Scream 6 and I have to say while Scream 6 revitalized the franchise, Scream 6 brought it to another level. The opening scene actually made me think the movie was ruined from the start when they revealed who the killer is from the start. This isn’t really the case, however.
Amber and Tara are now in college, much like in Scream 2. Yes, this movie is continuing to build off the idea that we are restarting the series while not restarting the series, and once again they are very open about this. Even when the killing starts and they get together with the group to discuss this the core 4 from the last movies even openly discuss this and how a franchise has rules and how they can’t count on the rules from Stab 2 (Scream 2) holding up.
Once again I have to admit, this actually has me excited for Scream 7. I didn’t think it would be possible for a franchise to die and come back like a horror villain but it actually has. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Tavern Manager Simulator on Steam is another long line of Simulator games I have been checking out recently. This one was sent to me by One More time. The game itself is all in the name, you inherit a run-down tavern, clean it up, buy some beer, and start selling it to anyone who walks in. Take these profits to buy more beer and repeat. Do those until you can buy some upgrades. In between you will draw water from the well, wash mugs, and clean up after messy patrons.
Two Girls one Cactus
The issue with this game is while it looks solid enough, it gets boring very quickly. The game loop of buying single servings of beer and then selling them just doesn’t hold up very well. As you add more chairs and food into the mix without the ability to simply hire help gets tedious and frustrating. While you can get help through the use of a special fairy dust it isn’t really the same as simply hiring someone. It would have been nice to simply hire a tavern wench or hunk so to speak to sling beer for me or a cook to make life easier.
That isn’t to say the game is bad, there is fun to be had for many, just not for me. The game has very positive reviews on Steam with close to 3000 reviews, the game is definitely at least a 7/10. For me, there are just better options out there. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Let us be perfectly clear from the start, Scream 4 was not a good movie. So when Scream was given a reboot/sequel (a requel as they call it in the movie) hopes were not high for many of us. The fact is I avoided this movie for years. I saw the original as soon as it left theaters back in 1996 in fact as I wasn’t old enough to see it while it was in theaters. It revitalized the horror franchise and is by many considered one of the most important horror movies of all time and I definitely understand the viewpoint, so watching the franchise decline after Scream 2 was a hit harsh.
This brings me to Scream 5. I went into this expecting a complete crap shoot and was greatly surprised. The gore and blood were back of course, but I loved that they completely steered into the concept that Scream itself spawned a movie in the world called Stab. With Stab falling off it made people want to reenact the movies to bring back better movies, hence why Scream is back.
Are you a bit confused? You probably should be, and that is what is great. Billy Loomis and his friend Stu went on a killing spree inspired by movies, which inspired a movie, which then inspired more killers obsessed with their movies.
This is what brings back beloved characters like Sydney and Dewey while introducing new characters Tara (Ortega) and Amber (Madison) which they fully recognize and say in the movie is the point of the movie because it’s what the killers want. Amber is of course the unknown daughter of Billy Loomis himself.
All in all, Scream 5 completely revitalizes what was once a dead franchise and it was done in an amazing way. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
Collectible Card Shop Master was sent to me from Nostra Games which is always appreciated. It is one of many simulator games being released in recent months and I have to say it is kind of a mixed bag. You run a card shop, a premise anyone familiar with TCG Card Shop Simulator (Steam Review) will be familiar with. You name your shop, buy some supplies like card pack, dice, etc and sell them to customers.
Dont forget tables for people to play
The game is quite simple to get into, and its price point looks nice and functions well. Honestly, I was expecting a complete train wreck with glitches everywhere. This, however, is not the cash grab I was expecting. Outside of a few quality-of-life improvements I would like to see, for example, I hate having to put one card at a time on the card stands, this game has everything the Steam competitor has for the most part. Customers come and go, and if the price is too high they will let you know. There are plenty of options to let you set up your shop however you like, but not so many that they seem useless or get confusing.
As an added bonus, trophy hunters can get the platinum in about 20-30 minutes. That isn’t to say the game is short. Having the platinum simply isn’t linked to actual progression. They all have to do with opening card packs or selling items and waiting on customers. When you have it there are still plenty of things to unlock.
If you are on a console the game is good enough to scratch the itch, it is a 7/10. While I prefer the Steam release myself this is a good alternative that even as I write this received an update I haven’t played yet. I will update this if there is anything in it worth mentioning. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
