Isla de las Muñecas, the Mexican island that holds the Guinness World Record for largest collection of haunted dolls, served as the inspiration for Where Dolls Hang, a survival horror game where you play a detective searching for people who’ve gone missing in a particularly cursed location. “Players must investigate missing person cases by examining…
Watch Dogs 2 is currently $2.50 on Steam. It’s hardly a classic, but it’s not terrible either. At one cent per 10 minutes of content, how can you resist?

Remember how Sony sneakily added a PSN account requirement to Helldivers 2 after launch, thereby making it unplayable in the long list countries PSN still hasn’t been rolled out to?

I’ve been playing videogames since my Dad was convinced my tiny baby hands were strong enough to grip a Mega Drive controller for more than five seconds. I’m sure he was just trying to convince my mum that the CD add-on was worth the insane amount of money—it definitely wasn’t, as I’m told it broke…
If what Bloomberg reporter Jason Schreier says is true and making an indie game is like buying a lottery ticket, Meccha Chameleon has hit the jackpot. It seems uncontestable as the friendslop hit of the year now, with over 15 million copies sold in less than a month. Developer lemorion_1224 thanked players for all the…
Last week, Marvel Rivals made the headlines for a familiar reason: one of its new skins is on the bleeding edge of horny superhero costume design.
