This place exists to explore culture and pleasure within video games.

Put simply, culture is shared interaction revolving around a touchstone or group of touchstones. In human culture, more often than not, art is the progenitor of the vast majority of such touchstones. At Owl’s Fine Reviews, we see video games as a worthwhile art form that begs interaction. With both games and fellow gamers. In this way, video games breed culture.

Pleasure is connecting to cultural touchstones in ways that make us feel. Those feelings can run the gamut from happiness to catharsis to discomfort. As long as, in the end, they help us experience the sensation of being seen and heard. This connection is pleasure.

And we’re so glad you’re here.
