The games of 2018 reviewed in the form of haiku

It’s almost the end of the year and now we are out of words. There are none left. All the words are gone.

Because of this, we needed something to get the creative juices flowing again. What better way to do that then to review the games of 2018 in the form of a haiku? Exactly. It makes complete sense.

So come with us as we haiku-review some of the most notable games of the year.
