Fans of Twister rejoice, there’s finally a game that lets you take down tornadoes in the least realistic way possible—and it’s free! Kill the Twister, a free indie game that’s exactly what it sounds like, launched on Steam this month and you don’t even need to add it to your wishlist since it’s a free…
A cool little puzzle platformer released last week: Bionic Bay, where you’re a little pixel scientist who, exiled to some strange biomechanical world, uses their teleportation tool to escape its strange pitfalls, tech, and traps. At first glance it’s a pretty straightforward physics-driven platformer with really nice pixel art and lovely modern lighting effects for…
Cephalofair Games, and other board game publishers like it, are in dire straits thanks to Trump administration trade tariffs, which could have a catastrophic impact on the entire board game industry. In an interview with CNN last week, Cephalofair Games COO Price Johnson shared some bad news about the second edition of the hit dungeon…
REPO’s dev team loves its players and modders, but it’s kindly asking everyone to optimize their mods so they don’t fry the servers. The REPO devs answered some questions from players in a Q&A video posted on Saturday, including one question about semiwork’s “stance on mods.” Their response was positive, but with one small ask…
The month of April has turned out to be a flashpoint for the isometric ARPG community. It’s packed with updates: Path of Exile 2, Last Epoch, Diablo 4, and No Rest for the Wicked all have big new shinies out this month, and while it’s natural to compare them, brawling over which is better obscures…

Yep, the one that ran alongside the moderately popular sci-fi (sorry, SyFy) TV show. Defunct twice over as both a retail game and the F2P relaunch Defiance 2050, it’s now…
There is something about the Lunar series—a classic JRPG duology by Game Arts, first released for Sega CD—that makes them an endless wellspring of nostalgia. Despite being archetypical fantasy adventures (or perhaps because of it), many ‘90s kids have been looking forward to the Lunar Remastered Collection, which landed on Steam and consoles this week….
Blood Typers was one of my favourite indie picks of last month. A clever fusion of classic Resident Evil and The Typing Of The Dead with a little bit of proximity chat co-op chaos for spice. But much as I liked it, something was missing—an ending. Despite not carrying any early access labelling, the game…
Over on Bluesky, industry analyst mauronl shared some info from Devolver Digital’s 2024 wrap-up for investors, including lifetime revenue figures for 10 of its games. Sitting at number one, with over $US90 million earned, is the folk-horror Happy Tree Friends dungeon-crawler Cult of the Lamb. Number two, with over $US80 million in lifetime revenue, is…
There’s a clue for today’s Wordle just a quick scroll down this page if you need to unscramble a mess of grey and yellow letters, or even if you just really like the idea of getting off to a great start while still keeping the fun word finding bit all for yourself. Have fun, try…
