Hello again coffee (or tea) drinking enthusiast. Today's update post is a biggie, so brew your favorite beverage and get comfy, there is a lot to talk about!
SEO implementations
In addition, there are now images added to URL links leading to all of the review pages on the site. Now you can visually see what you're clicking onto, instead of it being just a wall of small text and links.
We have also fixed the link leading to the Gran Turismo 7 Review as it was named incorrectly, oops.
New Review coming soon: Metroid Samus Returns
The next game to be reviewed will be the 3DS remake released in 2017! We've covered the original Metroid II: Return of Samus, but does Samus Returns hold up to its expectations and does it live up to its ambitious title? You'll have to sit tight and stay tuned as it comes closer to publishing!
ETA: Sometime this March
Along with the ‘Metroid: Samus Returns’ review will come a new page design for all current and future reviews. As the current design stands, it gets the job done and serves the intended design choice of minimalism. This new design will include a lot more pictures to show, and will even have gifs, so it's less time consuming and more engaging! Do keep in mind this won't affect the length of reviews; it's more of a personal QoL improvement.
Journalism Posts have taken off!
I have now started picking up on doing game journalism as a hobby, and the two posts that have been created have received the most views out of all the blogs that have been posted so far!
As a part of my journalism experience, I am only covering stories that I can find direct sources too and will insert citations whenever a factual statement calls for it.
If you missed them, you can view them here!

Making Review & Brew mobile friendly
During the course of the site's online presence, it's been noted down that while this site is more suited for Desktop/laptop viewing, about half the daily visitors are on mobile according to the SEO statistics report.
With this in mind, efforts to make the site more mobile friendly are underway. Please be patient as this will take time to fully optimise on every page. One of the first few pages to have currently already received such treatment is the Home page. More pages will be optimised as time goes on and we thank you for your understanding and patience.
