Ace of Diamond – 01

By Guardian Enzo October 6, 2013

"One Pitch of Fate"

So far, Fall 2013 has a distinctly old school flavor to it - at least the tiny corner of the schedule that overlaps with my tastes, anyway.

"The Apocalypse"

A sword-and-sorcery adventure in an MMORPG world. This feels exactly like what stepping into an MMO would be like, complete with a lightness of tone and an adorable roleplaying ninja.
