Thankfully, in the upcoming, solo-developed action RPG Mortal Crux, you get all of the above and then some. We got a peek at fishing and some of Mortal Crux’s other new features…
Driving survival game Pacific Drive will release on February 22, 2024, as announced in a new trailer during the PC Gaming Show: Most Wanted. The trailer gave us another glimpse of the self-styled “road-like,”, which mixes survival staples such as resource scavenging and crafting with an almost rogue-like, run-based structure.

Back in 1999 Cunningham was the art director for Homeworld, a fully 3D space RTS that felt unlike anything else in the…
Puzzle games usually aren’t chillout games. They’re challenges, brainteasers, mindbenders, and frustrations. Islands of Insight is not that kind of puzzle game. There’s no linear path forcing you to tackle every puzzle in a set order, banging your head against whatever you’re stuck on until you break through. Heck, there isn’t even fall damage, so…
