Kill the Brickman, which publisher Poncle and developer Doonutsaur just shadow-dropped this afternoon, is one of those games that defies a simple, clean description. It’s a bit of a weirdo. But it’s a weirdo you can play right now for a meagre £4/$5, so it might be worth taking a punt on. OK! So sentient…
Dawn of War 4‘s inception goes all the way back to 2018, only a year after the arrival of Dawn of War 3. King Art Games had just launched the Kickstarter for Iron Harvest, an alt-history WWI with mechs and bears. As soon as King Art started to show off Iron Harvest, Dawn of War…

Facing Everdark Gladius in Elden Ring Nightreign might actually be quite satisfying for many players after the nightmare that was Everdark Libra. That’s because the new version of the fire doggo is wonderfully straightforward, a little similar to Everdark Caligo, so it’s less about random gimmicks and more just a full-on brawl.

In the ’60s, the company would dominate the slot machine industry, accounting for an incredible 90 per cent of the worldwide market by the…
Okay, so I recently wrote about how I’m kind of over the Fortnitification of everything, but Infinity Nikki collaborating with Stardew Valley is one videogame crossover I can abide by.

The Storm’s A-Brewin’ quest is the first friendship quest you’ll get once you’ve unlocked Sadness in Disney Dreamlight Valley. When you talk to Sadness to start the quest, she will explain that rain clouds have been popping up in different places around the valley and she feels responsible, which is bringing down her mood. Sadness…
Look, we’ve all made mistakes. One New Year’s Eve, I accidentally drunk-texted a relative instead of an ex, and let me tell you, I’m still living that one down. AMD doesn’t appear to be immune to the odd ‘whoopsie daisy’ either, as it appears it’s accidentally released the source code for FSR 4 on GitHub…
