Blossom Tales: The Sleeping King Review

Blossom Tales: The Sleeping King is clearly a riff on The Legend of Zelda formula. But is that a bad thing?

Despite my own pressure and poking from myself and others to get back into it, the game collected dust on my shelf.

Inspired by the recent release of Paladins on the Nintendo Switch, I’ve found myself falling in love with the hero shooter genre as a whole in a big way.
