On the one side, I'm faced with this absolutely adorable character art by Guillaume Singelin--dare I call it cutesy? It's lo-fi art, the kind you expect to see when you open... Continue Reading →
https://youtu.be/y-cNJSB6wpE My first game of Dune: Spice Wars proved to me this title is a promising entry into the real-time strategy genre. While there’s plenty yet to add before the game comes out of Early Access, my first impressions are favourable. Allow me to expand: this game succeeds as both a Dune game and as... Continue Reading →

Okay, okay, I know what you’re thinking just looking at the title – this video is going to be a whole lot of complaining! You couldn’t be more wrong.... Continue Reading →
I have passing knowledge of Alexis Kennedy, one of the two leaders at the head of game developer Weather Factory (the other being Lottie Bevan). I've spent several hours with Cultist Simulator, a game thoroughly disquieting and altogether too complex for me to get after three failed attempts. I've also heard enough about Fallen London...

That Outrider has, in its first week, become bigger than Avengers over its eight months of shelf life, must come... Continue Reading →
https://youtu.be/NY7uuiKcIbc Between the two of us, Baldur's Gate 3 is everything a D&D player might want, especially when his five-year-old group keeps ghosting him. Larian Studios' Early Access title does have a 𝔣𝔢𝔴 bugs. A smattering of them. Tiny, tiny amount. But amusing, most of them - as you will discover for yourselves. Follow me... Continue Reading →
Venturebeat journalist Jeff Grubb seems to think so! That is, he's gone on the record to say as much on his Twitch stream (you can find that here). I'm willing to buy into this -- we know the folks at Remedy have a two-game contract with Epic Games, praise be Monsieur Sweeney, pedlar of free... Continue Reading →
Hiya folks! I recently finished Guerrilla Games' Horizon Zero Dawn on PC and I've been thinking about how the context of secondary information in it shifts as you play - in this video essay, I look to the ways in which Guerrilla's writing team has managed to craft one of the finest stories in gaming....

Turns out, this One Step From Eden roguelike is both fun and addictive! https://youtu.be/JI6vPC4G_IM This is one of the most challenging games I’ve played in a while; I know it recently received an Easy Mode update, but I have yet to play around with the difficulty settings.
