    recovering and healing. In these games, place is not real world, and main character is animal, and many cute animals appear the game. When I played these games, I could heal my feeling.

Starring a group of Dungeon & Dragons playing kids who bike around while communicating on their walkie-talkies, the series brought a heavy dose of eighties nostalgia with a rather rare authenticity. This stylish take on the tropes of the eighties with an undeniable amount of sci-fi and horror, not to forget homages, tells the story of a 12 year old named Will who will…
