Welcome back to the level up your fitness workout series! We are already in week 2 of our 6-week program and we are very excited you are still with us! This week we get to meet our second class: the Paladin. A little more core this week, but of course, a Paladin is basically a magic fighter class, so he has to be able to tank a bit and take bodyshots.

What are the best Pokémon baby names? You might think: ‘Girl, what took you so long to make this list?’ But let’s get real. There are already a lot of baby names lists out there. Some lists are wonderful and some are plain awful. Some names are too much on the nose (We can’t all name our kids Ash. Don’t be ridiculous!). And some are needlessly complicated and over the top unique. Believe me, nobody wants to walk around with a name like Zigzagzoon. Further more (Hah, fancy!), some names have a negative association (Do not name your baby Slowpoke or Primeape. Please.) So this list required some thought. Here is my version of the best Pokémon baby names. Enjoy!
If you are a gamer, chances are you have some gamer friends as well (I am not saying how big these changes are). And while gaming on your own is awesome, enjoying a game with friends is probably even better! Here are some of my (Nicky) favourite games to play together from different genres. Curious as I am, be sure to comment and share your favourite multiplayer game below or on our socials!

The Guildwars 2 story takes place in the Asian inspired Cantha, so I was really craving some Chinese food again! With noodles and stir fry being referenced everywhere in the game, I really wanted to make Eggplant stir fry again. Just like I did at a cooking class when I was in China. Eggplant stir fry is a Chinese famous dish, usually made with a local Sechuan variant of Eggplant, called Yuxiang. While in game you can buy the eggplants in bulk at Mount Maelstrom, in real life, any eggplants will do.
During Covid, popular games like Animal Crossing gave a lot more people a way to escape the intensity of the reality we are dealing with. Why is it that people like to escape reality so much? Gaming to escape covid, which games have we been playing? In this post we’ll give you 3 reasons why.
I was lucky enough to visit the newly opened Molly’s Arena. A Japanese-style arcade where you can sit down and have ramen and Mochi ice cream while playing the most epic arcade games. And even better, fly loops in an air plane in VR. So if you need some more convincing to drop by this Arcade, let me tell you about why you need to go there ASAP.
Update! Since the 14th of January, Molly’s Arena is open again! Support the local gaming scene and go visit when you can!
Life is a game and true love is a trophy
Before I start talking about being a ‘geek couple’, let me introduce myself first. My name is Sakuraflor. Though people mostly call me Saku. I am 24 years old and I am half Dutch and half Spanish. I am an artist who is specialized in three different art styles, which are: chibi, manga and semi-realism. Next to that, I am a diehard cosplayer also know as Sakuraflor. But more about that later! I’ve been gaming since I was little, always being the Luigi to my older sister’s Mario. Gradually I started playing more on PC and I kinda got stuck on that.
Hi there! My name is Laura de Fluiter and I’m 22 years old.

Celebrating Firstlook Festival 2016
Last weekend was the 9th edition of Firstlook in Utrecht. Firstlook is the biggest gaming event in the Netherlands with the newest games, gadgets and hardware. A lot of gamers gather in Utrecht every year to play games and hang out with friends. And this year we were excited to see that there were a lot of festivities around the Maffia 3 game and the 15th anniversary of Gamekings. For all the non-Dutchies: Gamekings is a tv-show that does reviews and previews of games and shows game related press trips. Naturally Girl Gamer Galaxy set off to Utrecht to celebrate this Firstlook festival 2016 too.
