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

Favorite Games

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

It also allows her to more easily engage and play with her friends.
