A wonderful and fun trip down memory lane for veteran players, and a great fit in the day and age of cozy gaming! This game is not for everyone though, as there is a major focus on creativity, moreso in the first game, MySims. If you prefer a game with more story and quests, you will probably enjoy MySims Kingdom more. A lot of customization options in both games so things never feel dull. MySims has you building houses, shops, and furniture for residents of your town. The gameplay is very similar to Animal Crossing except you get to make the furniture. MySims Kingdom still has the creative aspects (minus the furniture building) but ties it into quests you complete for NPCs on different islands. The characters are very charming and memorable. The controls are a little hard to get used to but there are options to help with the building aspects of the game. You can also use the touch screen for easier building. Definitely check this out if you're a fan of Animal Crossing especially.

One of the best platformers out there. Keep in mind this is strictly a co-op game, so you'll need 2 players throughout the entirety of the game. The narrative and art direction are stunning, and my husband and I have had so much fun playing this. I have a hard time finding platformers I enjoy, since I typically play RPGs and life sims, but this one is truly something special, as it heavily involves puzzle solving. It really feels like both players work together as a team, and never feels like one player is doing more than the other, making this a very balanced experience. Definitely check this one out, it's such a treat to play!

Trash. Not what I expected at all. Call me a prude, but I thought this show was over-the-top raunchy and just...unrealistic to the point where it became annoying. None of the characters are likeable. This show is a disgrace to period pieces everywhere. If you really need to get off, then I guess this show is for you. Have fun.

Still a great show after all these years. Keep in mind I might have some nostalgia bias but I mean it when I say this - it's hilarious and a joy to watch! There is a nice variety of skits and all of the cast are insanely talented, especially for their age! Amanda pulls off such a wide range of characters. She was so unlike a lot of her peers. Drake Bell is also great in all his roles as well as Nancy Sullivan, Raquelle Lee, Johnny Kassir, and Josh Peck! The whole cast is great, and every season is consistent and adds something new. This show is just FUN. They don't make kids shows like this anymore. Love the cast and it's sad to see what happened to some of them during and after the show....but you can tell this show still has heart beyond all the controversy. I love The Amanda Show!!!!

Stay away, this movie is not what you think it is. Barely any epic battle scenes, and barely historically accurate. Spends too much time portraying Napoleon as a submissive to his unworthy wife. Who cares. I don't recommend this if you actually want to learn more about Napoleon. Even for fans of romance, I don't recommend this. Their relationship was annoying to watch and felt forced down the audience's throats. Very disappointing overall.

Overall, it's a very boring, confusing, and repetitive experience. I don't completely hate it though. The combat is fun. The graphics are nice. However, the story feels rushed and has absolutely no flow to it. The Disney worlds are pointless and anything relevant to the story is crammed into the last few hours of game play. To say this game was a disappointment is an understatement. It does have its charming moments, but the memory of this game only gets worse the more you think about it. Kingdom Hearts 3 made me lose all interest in the franchise. I doubt they can save it. The story is just too convoluted now, and this is coming from someone who usually doesn't mind a complicated story.

Great show - my mom recommended it to me as I have spent most of my working life in assisted living homes. Even as an American, there were so many things about this show that I found relatable. Gervais was able to capture life working in an elderly home almost perfectly. There are so many heart-warming moments in this show, and I enjoyed the Office-esque, dry humor. There were only a few things wrong with this series, but nothing too glaring, in my opinion. I thought the show was too short, and I didn't like how they replaced the janitor character with a guy who you just couldn't get behind, even after the half-hearted attempt at the end of the series to make viewers feel sympathy for him being such a jerk. He had his funny moments, but overall he was just too unlikeable. Other than that, it's a fun, touching series. I highly recommend for fans of Gervais and British comedy.

This is a difficult game to get into. But once you do after a few hours of play time, it can get addictive. There is so much to do and so many upgrades and skills to level up. I still prefer previous Rune Factory titles, but this one still has the same charm as previous titles. Unfortunately, the graphics and clunky controls and lag make it frustrating to play. If you can get past that, it's definitely worth your time if you like farming sims. The characters are interesting and have cool designs as well. The combat and dungeons are so-so. The story is average but enjoyable. Hopefully they put out a few more updates to fix the technical issues! Other than that, its a fun time sink.
