Deckbuilding roguelike Slay the Spire hasn’t left the PC Gamer Top 100 since it came out despite inspiring hundreds of imitators, a testament to how precisely it bullseyed assembling a hand of cards so powerful you become a god. Now it seems the game most likely to usurp it is Slay the Spire 2, which…

The Postal series is essentially the videogame equivalent of Uwe Boll’s filmography*. They’re notoriously awful—the last one we reviewed was Postal 3 in 2012, which earned a dismal 21%—and they keep happening for some reason. A new addition to the lineup was announced on December 3, in fact, called Postal: Bullet Heaven. And then approximately…

World of Warcraft‘s player housing feature has been out for less than a week—well, in early access, as long as you’ve bought the upcoming Midnight expansion—and I’m delighted to report that players are already going hogwild. For context, player housing has taken notes from every other popular MMO’s housing system and basically rolled it into…
Ever felt lost at sea in the first days of a new job? I’ll admit it—my first weeks at PC Gamer, I had no idea what I was doing (some might say that’s still the case). I was just trying to keep my head above water and not publish anything libellous, or at least nothing…
