Towns can be built, townsfolk can be menaced—all through the awesome, lightning-bolt throwing, boulder-dropping, peasant-flinging power of an omnipotent, hovering hand, just as tradition demands. And it’s all happening when Masters of Albion launches in early…

I was expecting the stock-standard mounts implementation—a glorified ‘go faster’ button—but it…
On the surface, it’s straightforward: one ship, descending waves of alien insects, and a single fire button… but underneath that simplicity is a rhythm that feels almost musical. The swooping enemy patterns, the slight delay on your shots, and that delicious risk of letting your fighter get captured so you can come back with a…
Wordle isn’t quite the draw for me it once was. I still play it most days, but I’m not hitting it first thing in the morning and I don’t care about preserving a streak anymore. Sorry, Wordle: the spark is gone. If, like me, you’re on the hunt for a new daily puzzle game, you…
