Having played games for over 20 years, her knowledge is unparalleled, which she brings to every article she produces.

Mara's favorite games include Silent Hill 2, Resident Evil 4, 7 and 8 as well as RPGS like the Mass Effect Franchise, Dragon Age, Baldur's Gate 3, and Vampire: the Masquerade - Bloodlines.
She also enjoys delving into TTRPGS such as Dungeons and Dragons and Vampire: the Masquerade. 

Favorite Console
