Dragon Age: Origins is “DAO,” Dragon Age II is “DA2,” and Dragon Age: Inquisitionis “DAI.” That’s sort of funny because it sounds like “die.Growbot is a 2D point-and-click adventure set upon a beautiful biopunk space station. Speaking of Dreadwolf, let’s go over the common abbreviations for each Dragon Age title. The land itself is called Solas, which, frankly, just makes me want Dragon Age: Dreadwolfto hurry up already. You’re a courier, you see, and you must navigate a malevolent realm to uncover the truth behind the rise of the wicked Dark Mist. But don’t let other players (and reviewers) totally sway you if the premise sounds pretty good. The mixed reception toward Pascal’s Wagerhasn’t stopped it from doing the Ambition thing and heading to Switch from a Windows origin.
