Smell – such a luxurious sense. The world offers the scent of sweet, oily donuts, creamy leather shoes, a mowed lawn, easily, like they’re worth nothing. But Love and Deepspace players are now learning the true value of smell now that their brother’s armpit is clean. Too clean.The hit sci-fi otome RPG recently released Ver. 5.0, a massive expansion that adds a customizable home for your protagonist and one of her five love interests to play traditional Chinese instruments in – among other activities, like take a hot shower. But players have noticed their boyfriends Zayne, Rafayel, Xavier, Sylus, and…
You can’t take a step on Steam this week without stumbling over a body. Step forward and you’ll trip over a cold-to-the-touch mobster with a knife in their back. Step to the left and, oh God, it’s a wizened academic clutching a poisoned apple in their rigor mortis grip. But one step to the right and you’ll find the decapitated head of a curmudgeonly mayor who had recently made enemies of everyone in their small town. Yes, it’s Steam Detective Fest and murder is in the air. Until January 19th, hundreds of developers are offering discounts and demos of their…
My excitement levels for Marathon hit rock bottom in the middle of last year, with rival extraction shooter Arc Raiders turning my head and keeping me hooked ever since its Server Slam playtest. However, after Bungie delayed the game and took extra time to cook, more recent glimpses of Marathon have renewed my interest greatly – upgraded visuals, insights into maps, and more have brought the buzz back. So too has today’s full unveiling of its lineup of Runner Shells. Not only do I spot some tasty looking abilities that tickle the Destiny 2 section of my little gamer brain,…

Alas and alack for Lickity Split, knight hero of The Fortress, prisoner of a villainous Sorceror King. ‘Twas I who named him (I wanted a pun on “Lich” and I’m fairly sure we’ve done “Lich My Balls” several times before) and ‘twas I who led him to his death a whole six rooms away from his cell… and ‘twas I who then resurrected him as a wizard and got him killed again, a mere five minutes later.
FromSoftware has a penchant for inflicting misery, resulting in smashed controllers, keyboards, and even the odd screen as players once again get their cheeks clapped by that one attack that definitely didn’t hit. Though the soulslike game studio loves to amp up the difficulty, the latest Elden Ring Nightreign patch is offering us a breather. Between its myriad character buffs and quality of life adjustments to some of its newer content, there’s a lot to be excited about. Of course, it’s not all sunshine and rainbows in Limveld, as you’re now going to have to take greater risks to resurrect…

When the Animal Crossing: New Horizons 3.0 update was announced back in 2025, I did the unthinkable. I took a virtual sledgehammer to my island and deleted it, resetting the home I had put over 1000 hours into. It was the same island I had had from day one of the game’s release, and had spent an embarrassing number of Nook Miles tickets to get all my favourite villagers in a perfectly organised neighbourhood.While deciding to simulate armageddon for all my villagers (sorry, Stitches) wasn’t easy, the hardest part of starting over was actually how overwhelming the prospect of planning…
