Mega Crit are working on three new Slay the Spire 2 modes, just don't place any bets on them all making it in
I've not had a punt at Slay the Spire 2 myself yet, I've been too busy coming up with an excuse for not having played the first one, but the general read I've got on it is "it's more Slay the Spire!" This can be interpreted much the same as a vote for Bart being a vote for anarchy, as far as I can t
Raise up the decapitated head of the goddess of love in a flower pot in the charmingly silly Tomak: Save the Earth Regeneration
I've never really been able to wrap myself around raising sim games such as the Princess Maker series. The framing of them feels like it could quite easily teeter over the edge into something uncomfortable, and in more modern entries such as Umamusume outright parasocial (and often exploitative). Bu
Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor's upcoming DLC is bringing back the original's seasonally appropriate Egg Hunt mode
I think it's entirely possible that I have not known true happiness since going through the childhood experience of going to your local Easter egg hunt, and finding a facsimile of an egg you can later trade in for the chocolate variety hidden in the plainest of views (but you're five, so you proudly

After five hours with highly anticipated pirate survival game Windrose, I can see why it's one of Steam's most wishlisted games
You could lock me into a chest packed with pieces of eight then toss me into a churning sea of pirate games and I'd still tell you there aren't enough of them as I slowly sink toward Davy Jones' Locker. Whether it's Sea of Thieves, Assassin's Creed: Black Flag, Monkey Island, or Sid Meier's Pirates,

Transfer Point is a modern adventure game made with 40-year-old software
One of the year's most intriguing games was developed using software first released 40 years ago. Transfer Point looks and plays like a classic Mac point-and-click adventure game, and there's a very good reason for that: It was developed using World Builder, a game creation tool first released in 19

Legends of the Round Table isn't just a turn-based RPG, it's an extravagant 13th century puppetshow with live medieval lute music and a boisterous, singing narrator you can all but visualise prancing around the stage, splashing mead over the less important courtiers. It's also a jousting experience

A YouTuber channeled his distaste for the PS5’s design into slick console covers
The PlayStation 5's curvy design is divisive. The Verge's Andrew Webster called it a "robotic clam" in his 2020 review, which is actually kind of endearing. Personally, I kind of got over hating it sometime during the past almost-six years of its existence. Small form factor PC enthusiast Devyn John
Resident Evil fans have adopted a Love & Deepspace character as the son of Leon S. Kennedy and one of his potential spouses
In an intersection of my particular interests that I most certainly didn't have on my 2026 bingo card, fans of the Resident Evil franchise – and in particular its recently-released ninth main entry, Resident Evil Requiem – have suddenly become obsessed with a very different favourite of mine: sci-fi
