Second Chances: Little Witch in the Woods 18.05.2024 22минLittle Witch in the Woods was Psitanium's worst ranked game of 2022, due to it being so mind-numbingly slow and boring.

Skull & Bones + Sail Forth 09.03.2024 22минAvast ye hardies. We are about to set sail with 2 naval games about the high seas and looting booty. First, we have the "Quadruple A" game from Ubisoft that finally saw the light of day, Skull and Bones.

Second, we have Sail Forth, a smaller indie game from 2022 where you explore a water world in search of shinies and photo opportunities. Can the scrappy little game be more fun than it's major studio counterpart or will it beach itself on a rock? -
