Loop de loop. To celebrate the newly-released movie adaptation of The Exit 8, the Switch version has received a minor, yet welcome upgrade for the Switch 2. If you’re unaware of the premise, The Exit 8 takes place in a looping corridor within a Japanese metro station. Your job is to escape, but to do…
While it may not have been as popular as Fallout or Baldur’s Gate, Planescape: Torment is often regarded as the zenith of the CRPG’s golden age. Its bizarre setting, kooky characters, and emphasis on solving quests through dialogue rather than combat set it apart from its RPG brethren, and you can trace its influence all…
Darkest Dungeon 2 has spent the last year plus change building out its Kingdoms mode. This transforms the party-based roguelike into a more open-ended strategy experience, folding in several features from the original game in the process.

At the time, this Kickstarter project – drawing inspiration from 3D Sonic platformers and even Mario – had just reached its Nintendo Switch goal, and now, well over a year later, the…
I will neither confirm nor deny that I was among those miffed that a powerplanning mistake got their base pillaged and destroyed in Dune: Awakening, but I will say auto-run sure could make the recovery process from such an error less painful. Funcom must’ve heard that complaint more than once too, as Dune: Awakening has…
One nice thing about Helldivers 2 is that you can join random sessions with strangers all night and never find a bad egg. Emerge from the cryostasis transportation pod on another diver’s ship and you’re likely to be greeted with a salute, handshake, or hug emote. That’s just how Helldivers roll. The community’s been on…

A throwback to a better time, before the world was ravaged by tariffs, gachaflation and out of control cost of living increases. Could it be true?
