Digital Games Go Mobile: From Snake to Smartphones
The year was 1997. In the palm of a teenager’s hand sat a grey Nokia 6110, nearly indestructible by design and primitive by modern standards. But inside it lived a game—Snake. There was no music, no color, no loot boxes or battle passes. Just a black dot zigzagging across a green-tinted screen, endlessly chasing its tail.

The Evolution of 3D Gaming: PlayStation, N64, and Beyond
The Evolution of 3D Gaming: PlayStation, N64, and Beyond Introduction: The Leap from Flat to Full In the early days of video games, two-dimensional (2D) graphics ruled. Characters ran side to side, platforms stacked in flat layers, and the player’s view remained largely fixed. But the moment gaming transitioned into the third dimension, everything changed—perspective, gameplay, storytelling, and immersion. The evolution of 3D gaming marked a pivotal revolution in game history. This is the story of how it happened—led by visionaries, powered by polygons, and embraced by millions.

The Game That Saved a Life: A True Story of Chess, War, and Redemption
“The Game That Saved a Life: A True Story of Chess, War, and Redemption” In the heart of war-torn Sarajevo, 1993, amidst shattered buildings and the constant threat of sniper fire, a game of chess unfolded that would forever change two lives. This is not a tale of grandmasters in velvet-lined halls, nor of historic tournaments or million-dollar prize pots. This is the real story of how a game of chess, played in the shadow of conflict, became a symbol of hope, survival, and the indomitable human spirit.

Style Savvy (2008) Review
I’ve been playing this game on and off for years now, and every time I restart, I get sucked into the expansive world of fashion. I mean, over 10,000 fashions in one game? That’s incredibly mind-blowing, and very impressive. Can you imagine the work that went into making all of that? For 16 different fictional fashion brands? You really have to wonder how long it took to come up with all those designs and implement them all into the game. I imagine there was at least some inspiration from the real-world fashion of the time. Honestly, a lot could fit nicely in today’s fashion world. Kinda gives you an idea of how timeless Style Savvy really is. Though, it’s not without its issues. There were some things that made me a little annoyed and that I felt were rather unnecessary. But it is, overall, a solid game worth revisiting.

Donkey Kong Land: a retrospective
Donkey Kong Land has a special place in my heart. It was the very first video game that I went out and bought, brand new, with my own money. In fact, it was money I’d received that day for my twelfth birthday. I walked to Woolworths with my best friend Paul (best-friendship still going strong) and bought myself my very own new game, in a special banana yellow cartridge.

The Forgotten Lore of Zelda
If there’s one thing The Legend of Zelda series loves more than breaking pots and hoarding rupees, it’s breaking fans’ brains with its convoluted, ever-shifting timeline. Nintendo has given us a mythos so tangled that even the Triforce of Wisdom might not be enough to make sense of it. From split timelines to reincarnating heroes, from ambiguous myths to outright contradictions, Zelda lore is less of a neatly woven tapestry and more of a dungeon where the walls keep rearranging themselves.

Press Play to Blockbuster: 5 Video Game Stories That Put Hollywood to Shame
When Pixels Outshine Projectors As sad as it is, most video game movies suck harder than a noob playing Dark Souls for the first time. But here’s the twist: some games already are masterclass films trapped in console prisons. These aren’t just great stories with gameplay bolted on – they’re narrative experiences so rich, so cinematic, that adapting them would require Hollywood to actually try for once.
