In the bleak, dying world of Mörk Borg a peculiar wizard lives alone in a tower, offering jobs to desperate warbands looking for any job no matter the danger or how meager the pay. This post is long overdue as I am a huge fan of this game. We even collaborated with the creator, KRD …

So what if a few people get eaten? Dinosaur Island review!
We started off 2019 by diving into one of the most-talked about, most photographed and most socially shared games of 2018 in my un-scientific opinion, and that’s Dinosaur Island!
