About Branden Lizardi

Taking a more casual approach to gaming, he will always choose co-op over competitive. When not glasses deep into another management game, he's probably talking himself blue about the current trends in VR.

Proudest Gaming Achievement

I beat Zork with a hand-drawn map. Does that count?

Favorite Games

Oxygen Not Included will always be the hallmark of what I like. A little silly, a little sci fi, a lot of management. You can swap the sci-fi out for good ol' fashione business-esque stuff, and I'll love that, too. I'm also a sucker for a good farming game.

Industry Focus

Farming games, colony and management games, and VR content is my focus, but you'll find me covering any topic i'm familiar with, including tabletop games like D&D
