Reviews of Games
I am a video game snob. I know you're not supposed to judge a book by its cover, or a game by its screenshots, but I also have working eyes (when I'm wearing my glasses) and judge I do. Art is such an important part of my whole gaming experience that unless I look at the screenshots and see something beautiful looking back at me then…
Unlike most gamers my age, I never grew up playing the LEGO games, instead, I spent my childhood taking real-life risks navigating my LEGO covered bedroom floor. The first time I got a touch of the far less dangerous digital version of LEGO was when I was already a fully-fledged adult (yes mom, that's right, I'm an adult now) and met my partner who, unlike me,…

My name is Sam, though I'm also known as Tech Girl and this is my little space on the internet. My friends and I share our love for all things gaming, geek and gadgets here. I'm a South African Esports host and content creator. Links to all my various platforms are here on the blog. I'm a giant nerd, own far too many pairs of Converse and secretly wish I could be one of the X-Men!
