The Luna Digger might just be my favourite boss in Pragmata, mainly because you’ll run into this mega mechanical worm a few times before eventually delving into its nest. By the time you step into the arena, you’ve more than had enough of it. But killing the Luna Digger isn’t straightforward, as this beast is…
Pragmata‘s first boss, the Sector Guard, is quite a step up compared to the challenges you’ve faced so far. But it’s also a sign of things to come: the Sector Guard is a breeze compared to bosses and even standard fights later on, not least because it’s a tutorial for the Overdrive mechanic. Because all…
I don’t expect every actor to play the videogames they’re connected to, and have a lot of respect for the way Walton Goggins just straight-up said he hasn’t played Fallout and won’t play Fallout. Good for him. You don’t want to join us down here in the pit, spending the rest of our lives trying…
While Critical Role has partnered with Wizard of the Coast on collaborations like The Explorer’s Guide to Wildemount, most actual-play series where you can watch people play D&D are unofficial.

It’s been composed and co-written by David Arnold, who has previously…
Between 2022 and 2024 PC Gamer’s Ted Litchfield wrote about Fortune’s Run six times. “It’s like the Jedi Knight 4 we never got,” he wrote in September 2022 about the stylish immersive sim which, like Gloomwood, doubles as an impactful boomer shooter and even has a basketball minigame. It was definitely among the most interesting…
When a Q&A kicks off with the reply “I am currently in a bad mood,” you’ve got my curiosity. That’s not how the usual polite back-and-forth tends to go! And when the reason for that mood turns out to be “because yet again I have been given a book on designing computer games,” well, I’m…

I’m at a weird place with Moves of the Diamond Hand, which released in early access on April 13: It’s a phenomenal RPG, nothing else out there looks like it, and it already has a greater volume of sheer stuff than the entirety of its creator’s previous work put together.
