Priya Nair
Indie & JRPG Critic
Priya Nair has been covering indie games and JRPGs since 2017, building a reputation for reviews that read like dispatches from someone who actually cares whether a game lands emotionally. Mumbai-born and London-based, she specialises in visual novels, cozy games, and narrative-driven titles that bigger outlets ignore. Her writing is unashamedly personal — she'll tell you when she cried, when she got frustrated, and when she needed a break — because she believes that emotional honesty is more useful to readers than manufactured objectivity.
