There’s more to Warhammer 40k: Darktide than smashing cultists and chaos mutants into a fine paste. As of today’s ‘Nightmares and Visions’ update you can also squish imaginary enemies of the Emperor, too. Although this being 40k (and thus casually cruel), even imaginary monsters and maniacs can still hurt you. The centerpiece of this week’s…
Things could get pretty bleak in classic text adventure The Oregon Trail, with dwindling supplies, damaging storms, and hostile entities making the frontier journey a test of resource management and strategy. Dying of dysentery was only one of the risks, along with (depending on which of the many versions you played) broken limbs, typhoid, or…
A Quick Intro to Long Gone Days Long Gone Days is a JRPG set in a near-future, war-torn version of our world. Through a mixture of traditional exploration, expressive storytelling, and innovative turn-based combat, this game explores human connection during war with a focus on civilians, language barriers, and borders.

AI! It’s changing the world, you know. Pretty soon, there’ll be no poverty, no hunger, no fear, and no doubt. The chiliasts were right: just over the horizon is a sweet eternity, brought about—somehow—by feeding a vast quantity of stolen art into a spellcheck machine and generating oceans of non-consensual deepfake pornography. I’m sceptical. So…

Deep Rock Galactic: Rogue Core is the meaner, shootier cousin to the standard DRG experience. As they are wont to do, the space dwarves have dug too greedily and too deep: mining teams are going dark, forcing the company to call in their heavily armed, hyper-lethal problem solvers—the Reclaimers—to apply a more forceful form of…
Sony has applied to patent systems that automatically fiddle with “parameters that change the difficulty of the game” based on your performance, a patent on the World Intellectual Property Organization‘s website reveals. (Actually, the patent reads “difficultly” at the time of writing, so Sony may in fact be referring to the implementation of dynamic cults….
Cooperative physics-platformer Human Fall Flat is one of my favourite back-burner games, something I check in on once every six months or so to see what nonsense has been added, eagerly play through the new levels, and then memory hole the thing until Christmas or whenever.
