When you get a review from Sushiball Games, you get honest content that provides viewers with detailed player insight about your game.
We love being a part of this tabletop community and sharing games we review and play with others.
From co-op to competitive, family to war games, comedy to horror, we review it all. We do focus mostly on light to medium titles.
Notes about transparency and fairness:
- We will always state when a game was sent for review or self-purchased.
- We do not do paid reviews and only are sent game related materials for review. Sushiball Games is our hobby. (We also do not utilize affiliate links but may link to Kickstarter and other third party content related to the game we are reviewing.)
- During the day, Alena works for Vala Marketing which has a large focus in the ttrpg/games/fandom industry. To avoid conflict of interest:
- Alena will not offer marketing services to companies we review for
- If we do review a title that happens to be for an existing client of Vala, we will post a disclaimer at the top of the page and Patricio will do the review to avoid unintended bias.
- Our reviews do NOT use AI. They’re written by Patricio or Alena (Sushi can’t type but he helps the best he can).
- Lastly, our reviews will always try to balance positive + improvement areas. We focus more on what is included, how often a game will reach our table, and unique criteria like language-barrier playability.
