About the Author

Hi, I’m Maya Thompson. I run the review portal on this site, and my focus is simple: to tell you what a game feels like in real play, not in marketing language. I care about pacing, controls, readability, and whether the experience holds up after the first few hours. If a game is brilliant, I will say so. If it is messy, unfinished, or padded, I will say that too. My background is in Information Technology, and I added coursework in software testing because I have always been interested in how products break and why. I have worked in QA support and playtesting, where you learn to be specific and fair. That mindset carries into my reviews. I take notes while I play, I revisit key sections, and I check performance and stability before I publish. I write for people who want clear answers. What is worth your time, what is not, and what you should know before you buy or download. If you like honest reviews that respect your time, welcome.
