Sydney is an expert in the field of fantasy world building. Her love of games started with the tabletop, where Dungeons and Dragons stole her heart, and quickly ignited a passion for detailed role-playing fantasy both on the board, and on the screen. Her passion for the industry was further cultivated by her father who amassed a large collection of vintage games and systems, and they spent many nights exploring them together. She has been writing and analyzing fantasy games and stories for 10 years, with a particular love for roleplaying systems where she can be fully immersed in the experience, and the decisions have a real impact on the world crafted around her. Working on her school paper, she has been reviewing games since she was 12 years old, doing her best to provide quality analysis of the lesser-known games to her peers, she even managed to start a club based on her article about the niche satire game of A Bard's Tale. From Secret of Mana to the Elder Scrolls franchise, Sydney has strong opinions and passion for them all.
