OPUS: Rocket of Whispers


I have another review to link to. But wait, this isnt my usual client. Perhaps because I have a new client! I am now writing news and reviews for backlogcritic.com! They’re a fresh new site that’s climbing the ranks quite quickly. You can see news by me daily, but for now check out my review of the indie adventure title, OPUS: Rocket of Whispers.


Thanks for reading, everyone. I’m currently contemplating another site rework. With my schedule changing around, and better website themes coming to my attention, I might have to make some changes that I believe will be better for the site as a whole. Time will tell. Check back tomorrow for more gaming news. Otherwise, have a great night!
