Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 Review— The Most Black Ops To Ever Black Ops

  Call of Duty: Black Ops 7 doesn’t just drop you into 2035—it grabs you by the vest, slaps night-vision goggles on your face, and whispers, “Things are about to get weird.” And honestly? It absolutely delivers on that promise. Treyarch and Raven have created a full-throttle fever dream of espionage, memory warfare, cyber-tech, and pure adrenaline that feels like classic Black Ops injected with future shock and a whole lot of dramatic yelling. In the best way, of course. From the opening mission, the campaign radiates swagger. You’re reunited with familiar faces like Section Mason—older, wiser, and still looking like he’s five seconds away from punching classified documents—and Harper, the man who defines the phrase “charismatic trouble.” But the cast doesn’t stop there. There’s the cyber-augmented powerhouse 50/50, whose entire presence screams “send me into danger, I’ll probably power-slam it,” and a whole squad of characters who feel memorable from the jump. And then there’s...

Interactive Ghost Hunt at The Lowry House: Huntsville’s Most Haunted Night Out

  If you’ve ever wanted to chase ghosts in a creaky, 1850s mansion that looks like it was born to be haunted, The Lowry House in Huntsville, Alabama is calling your name—probably in a spooky whisper. The Interactive Ghost Hunt turns this historic home into your own paranormal playground. Forget passive tours—this is a full-blown, hands-on investigation where you get the equipment, the access, and the goosebumps. Inside these walls, guests have reported all the greatest hits: shadow figures darting through doorways, sudden cold spots, toys moving on their own, and the infamous Lady in White who loves staring from the upstairs window like she’s waiting for her ghostly DoorDash order.

The Lowry House served as a safe stop on the Underground Railroad, complete with a secret room built to hide footsteps. With Civil War stories, hidden pa...

Simon the Sorcerer Origins: The prequel that remembers how to laugh (Game Review)

Simon the Sorcerer Origins catapults the sarcastic, reluctantly heroic teen‑wizard back into the limelight with a lovingly hand‑drawn prequel that finally explains the origins fans have wondered about for decades. Smallthing Studios and ININ restore the series’ razor‑sharp wit and off‑kilter charm while modernizing the craft: richly animated 2D visuals, cinematic realtime sequences, and polished voice work pair with classic point‑and‑click puzzles and fresh mechanics. The result feels both nostalgic and new, faithful to the spirit of the 1993 original yet confident enough to reframe Simon’s story for returning fans and curious newcomers alike. Premise and tone Set just weeks before the original game, Simon the Sorcerer Origins opens on a quiet, emotionally resonant hook: a loving mother, a moody teenage Simon, a reluctant family move, and an ancient prophecy that yanks him into a baffling, magical realm. The narrative smartly balances laugh‑out‑loud sarcasm with genuine moments of ...

Schematic Void: Finish the game the developer couldn’t - and have a blast doing it! (Game Review)

Schematic Void upends the usual rescue‑the‑world setup by making the game’s incompletion the premise and your mission the fix. It’s a sly, anti‑horror point‑and‑click that delights in cracking the fourth wall: the developer’s unfinished notes become tools, UI quirks become puzzles, and the rules rewrite themselves as you play. Visually spare but brimming with character, the game trades realism for inventive gestures; circuit boards are playful scaffolding rather than technical manuals; so solutions favor lateral thinking, curiosity, and mischief over rote electronics know‑how. The result is a compact, clever adventure that feels like finishing a joke with the punchline already in your hands.
