Hello! This is Crit & Crit (short for Critical & Critique), where video gaming couples with literary analysis.

We are Axion (they/them), a lifelong classic and retro gamer and fiction lover, and Scint (she/they), a professional educator, voracious reader, and proficient punster.

Come join us on this experiment combining two of our favorite forms of entertainment.

Uploads on Sundays and Wednesdays!
