Who We Are?

CritbyCrit is an independent gaming publication born from pure passion for the medium we love. As a subsidiary of Crit Media, our independently-owned media startup, we’re committed to maintaining editorial freedom and authentic voices in an increasingly corporate landscape.

Our Story

Founded and operated by Jake Bishop and Sikandar Mahmood, CritbyCrit emerged from a simple belief: gaming deserves better coverage. We’re not just another gaming blog churning out clickbait – we’re gamers writing for gamers, with the depth and care that our community deserves.

What Makes Us Different

In an era where the web is flooded with AI-generated content and soulless copy-paste articles, CritbyCrit stands as a beacon of authenticity. Every piece of content on our site is human-crafted, thoroughly researched, and written with genuine passion. We believe that gaming culture is too rich and complex to be reduced to algorithmic outputs.

Our Mission

• Retro Gaming: Celebrating the classics that shaped the industry
• Handheld Gaming: Covering portable gaming from Game Boy to Steam Deck
• Game Guides: Detailed, helpful walkthroughs for popular titles
• Breaking News: Timely coverage of industry developments
• Technical Support: Practical fixes for common gaming issues
• Community Content: Everything in between that makes gaming special
