Have you ever wanted to be a pop star? A mage? A horse? A chef? Or, maybe even a thief? Well, in the world of MiiTopia you can do just that! In the beginning, you have a crew of characters to design and the character's relationships help determine your strength as a group. Visit an Inn where your team can rest and prepare themselves for the next level. The music alone on this game is worth the wait! Beating bosses is still the same and if you get tired, you can go fishing. 

The second game reviewed is Minecraft. Nothing better than a 2D boxed world with the ability for ultimate creativity. This sandbox game allows its users to create anything their imagination is capable of. Minecraft earned an award in 2020 for the most sold game that existed. Both Gabe and Kalan stated that if they had to pick between the two games, they would pick Minecraft because "it is a legend".

Ever played hangman? Well, now you can take hangman off his noose and use him to destroy your enemies! Kalan and Gabe explain how such a simple character and stages could be so fun!
