The Video Game Tavern: Expert Game Reviews in 2024

Welcome to the Video Game Tavern, a humble place where gamers and lovers of lore gather to share their common interests.

The Video Game Tavern’s primary purpose is to review any and all games that interest its team of writers. Specifically, we have a special place in our hearts for cozy games of all kinds.

Nothing beats the sense of peace you feel in immersing yourself in a world with no expectations placed on you aside from the ones you yourself create. Some days, you want to swing your melee weapon round in a series of complex moves to finish off monsters. Some days, you just want to watch your corn grow in your pixel art farm or decorate your bedroom with fall decor.
