When I was young, I loved watching stuff on the kids’ cable channel Nickelodeon like Danger Mouse, Double Dare, and You Can’t Do That on Television (yeah I’m THAT old school). But even years later as a teen and young adult I liked watching Nicktoons like Rocko’s Modern Life and Invader ZIM. And once my little brothers came along, they were all in on shows like SpongeBob SquarePants, Rugrats, and Avatar: the Last Airbender. So I’m always happy to review a new Nicktoons game. So here comes Nicktoons and the Dice of Destiny, a crossover action RPG featuring some of your favorites. In the game, Timmy Turner from The Fairly Oddparents is playing a table top RPG with his fairy godparents Cosmo and Wanda. It’s a spoof of Dungeons and Dragons (they even call it Creatures and Caverns). Anyway, Timmy wishes he could be in the game for real, so with the help of some dubious magical multisided dice that Cosmo found, they are whisked into a fantasy world where other Nicktoon characters are sucked in as well. Now Timmy and characters from SpongeBob, Avatar, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and more must go on an adventure to find the magical dice so they can go back home as well as battle villains like Plankton and Angelica. Nicktoons & the Dice of Destiny is available on most current consoles but reviewed on Switch here.
The Good Old Days (Switch, PC)
Posted on December 3rd, 2025 by
I was a kid in the 80s, and because of that, there are a lot of movies around then that really shaped my childhood. These include trilogies like the original Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Back to the Future films, as well as others like Gremlins and Ghostbusters. But one 80s movie that I wasn’t as big a fan of was The Goonies. I think it’s because in the summers, my best friend’s cousin would come over to visit and always bring her videotape of The Goonies and want to watch it with us every day! I got so tired of it! But like most other movies at the time, The Goonies got a few video games. The most popular were the NES games from Konami. The first one wasn’t really released in the US outside of arcades, but the second one was pretty popular, at least in my group of friends anyway. So if you liked the gameplay of those classics, you may want to check out The Good Old Days. It’s a 2D Metroidvania style platformer where you play as a group of kids called The Noogies. They’re tasked with finding treasure in underground caverns to make enough money to keep their parents’ house, but they only have one day to do it and they must compete with a gang of thieves! Only thing it’s missing is that catchy Cyndi Lauper song! The Good Old Days is available on Switch and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.
Pokémon Pirate Puffs
Posted on October 17th, 2025 by
There’s a snack brand called Pirate’s Booty that I think mostly does popcorn kind of snacks. I don’t really see them much in stores that I visit frequently, though. I think the last time I saw them was at World Market and I haven’t been there in years. But recently a close relative bought me these packs of Pirate’s Booty snacks featuring Pokémon. And you know me, I’ll write about anything video game related, no matter what it is. So let’s take a look at them!
Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift (Switch, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, X/S, PC)
Posted on October 6th, 2025 by
When I was a kid in the 80s, Garfield was huge! Newspaper comics strips were a popular form of entertainment for all ages back then, and the fat orange cat was right at the forefront. Not only that, but he had countless merchandise, Emmy award winning TV specials and a Saturday morning cartoon! So yeah, Garfield was a big part of my childhood. So good or bad, I’m always happy to review a Garfield video game. So here comes Garfield Kart 2: All You Can Drift, a typical cartoony kart racer featuring the fat cat and his friends. I’ve never played the first one, so I don’t know if this one improves anything in any way, but the sequel is available on all current consoles and PC, but reviewed on Switch here.

If you’ve ever wanted to have Kisses with Pokémon, now’s your chance. OK that sounded ALL wrong! Anyway, Pokémon have teamed up with Hershey’s Kisses to make some limited edition wrappers so you can try and catch ‘em all!
Pokémon Friends (Switch, Mobile)
Posted on October 1st, 2025 by
You’ve arrived in a new town to start your very own Pokémon plush toy shop. Kind of like a Build-A-Bear with Pokémon I guess. But while unpacking, your yarn gets all tangled up. So now you have to solve Pokémon themed puzzles to unravel your thoughts, and the yarn in Pokémon Friends. It’s available on Switch and mobile devices, but reviewed on Switch here.
More Minecraft Movie McDonald’s Madness!
Posted on May 9th, 2025 by
A couple of weeks ago I wrote an article about the Minecraft movie meals you could get at McDonald’s. Well I’ve gotten a few more things from them since then, thanks to my family, so let’s take a look at those, too!

Care Bears: Unlock the Magic (Switch, PS4, PS5)
Posted on April 4th, 2025 by
There are many toy lines that came out in the 80s when I was a kid that are still popular today. Some examples would be Transformers, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, My Little Pony, etc. Another example that I didn’t know was still around until recently was Care Bears. That was huge when I was a kid, and they had lots of toys, plush, several cartoons, and even some movies! I think even I saw the first Care Bears movie when I was a kid (I remember it being surprisingly dark), and that movie even made more money than the Disney cartoon film it was competing against (granted that Disney movie was The Black Cauldron, but still). Now Care Bears are making a comeback and late last year I reviewed a 2D platformer starring the bunch. And now they have a new installment featuring an assortment of arcade style mini-games. Care Bears: Unlock the Magic is available on Switch and PlayStation consoles, but reviewed on Switch here.
Wallace and Gromit’s Grand Games!
Posted on March 21st, 2025 by
So we all know that Wallace and Gromit have had lots of stop motion clay adventures on the small and big screen. But did you know they’ve had quite a lot of video games, too? They’re both old and recent and cover a wide variety of genres, too! So to end Wallace and Gromit Week, I thought we’d go over all their video games here. And if there were/are any mobile games or browser games starring them, I won’t be going over those. Either I missed out on them or don’t feel like going THAT deep.
