Before launch, the discourse around Reanimal seems to largely be its theme, and as Tarsier is renowned for leaving the heavy lifting up to the players, Reanimal’s Reddit is already alive with fan theories. Going into this, I had my own theories, the most immediate being that this was a commentary on the environmental impact…
Mewgenics was in development for 14 years, but these top five features prove it was all worth it
Mewgenics is a tactics roguelike that shares a creator with The Binding of Isaac, so it’s safe to say it’s not only become one of the best roguelikes for clawing at my time, but one that’s finally got me to understand the appeal of tactics RPGs thanks to its quickfire battles throughout each adventure.I can’t put it down, and I can see why we called it a “dense, detailed, and hugely varied strategy roguelike” in our Mewgenics review – I’ve only just begun to chip away at Act 2 and I’ve never had two runs go quite the same way,…
Romeo is a Dead Man, Grasshopper Manufacture’s eccentric new hack ‘n’ slash, is out today. I quite like it. I especially like its main menu screen, a strangely hypnotic fish tank in which captive planets float alongside a coral ballet trophy, and the menu’s text strings try to escape when you’re not looking.

What is the best webcam? Whether you’re regularly streaming or mostly need a webcam for dialing into work calls, a good webcam is now an essential PC upgrade for most PC gamers. A dedicated webcam can also give you a huge boost in image quality compared to the built-in offerings found on your laptop. Our current choice of the best webcam for most is the Logitech C920, as it offers a reliable combination of decent 1080p image quality and clear sound quality, all for a reasonable price. For 4K image quality, the Elgato Facecam 4K is the way to go,…

What is the best mini gaming PC? The traditional image of a custom gaming PC is a hulking behemoth of a machine, with frantically spinning fans, blazing rainbow RGB LEDs, and a monstrously large graphics card. However, the best mini gaming PCs can be compact, quiet, and elegant, all while providing performance that can rival full-size desktop rigs. We’ve tested a wide range of options from ultra-compact ones, which are similar to small laptops in performance, to true powerhouses. Our top choice overall is the Geekom AX8 Pro, thanks to its incredibly small size, decent gaming power, and fair price.…
Shigeru Ohmori, The Pokémon Company’s most senior game director, fondly recalls his first role in the early 2000s, designing maps for the Game Boy Advance titles Ruby and Sapphire.“When I was creating the map, which was 2D at the time, I was putting grass onto it where Pokémon would appear,” he told VGC in a Tokyo conference room, in a gleaming silver tower, which also serves as Pokémon’s de facto headquarters. “That feeling of Pokémon appearing when I was creating the habitat was very interesting to me, and that feeling is something I cherish.”Ohmori is one of the most experienced…
