LIGHT AT THE END OF THE…
Did someone say tunnel?
This is our first issue of 2021 and we’re finally seeing some light at the end of that dark, dismal tunnel that was 2020, one of the worst years in modern history – and maybe one of the worst in ALL of recorded history! Too much heartache, too much pain, too much hardship… just too much! But now, multiple vaccines are on the way and hopefully, sooner rather than later, the pandemic will be a memory and life as we used to know it, will be a reality once more.
We have come so far in these tumultuous times but, being human, we tend to reach a point where we feel “enough is enough”. We tend to rebel against restrictions – even those in our own best interests. Those feelings can well up within you. “We’re going to get tough!” “We’re going to show that virus who’s boss!” Unfortunately, the virus doesn’t care! So what do you do?
Lots of things but certainly one of them is games.
In the scheme of such devastating times, gaming is a mere speck – but an important speck nonetheless. When folks are hunkered down due to the pandemic and experiencing isolation and depression, games, both physical and virtual, have served as a link to help maintain the human bond between us. Just as the vaccines developed are antidotes to Covid-19, gaming has served as an antidote to that isolation and depression.
No surprises that new outlets have reported a resurgence in sales of games of all kinds! Games can – and do – serve as outlets for those frustrations all of us feel and, in every issue of Gamers Alliance Report, we try to do our part in guiding our readers to the best of those needed and necessary escape valves.
In this issue of Gamers Alliance Report, once again, we find some light at the end of that tunnel as we feature some games worthy of attention. We explore lost ruins, journey beyond the sun, and roll in Rome! Joe Huber shares some “Deep Thoughts”, Eric Brosius enjoys blue skies and Selwyn Ward plays nice. Despite travel restrictions, Pevans plays pirate, James Davis visits Versailles while Greg J. Schloesser revisits Crete! Andrea “Liga” Ligabue channels his inner Viking while Chris Kovac, as all of us, just tries to survive! Plus the Gamer’s Bookshelf returns! And of course, a whole lot more.
Until next time, Good Gaming!
