Right, roll call time. “A barbarian (for all the bonk boys in the audience)”. Present. A mage who’s the smartypants choice. Yeah. A thief, who’s both “classic” and “obligatory”. Here. “Rat with saxophone”. Yup. Right, that’s all of the fantasy trope character types accounted for in Dark Scrolls, a roguelike dungeon-running platformer from the devs behind Gunbrella and Gato Roboto.
If you’ve been sent a concerning squad invite message in Warframe telling you that your account has been compromised, don’t panic. Malicious players were able to adjust the default text for invites to display a custom greeting instead, and took it upon themselves to exploit this to frighten the Warframe community at large. In response, Digital Extremes has shut down direct game invites for the time being. It says they’ll remain off until the launch of the Shadowgrapher expansion, but notes that “no accounts have been compromised” and that “it is safe to continue playing.” Unsolicited messages that suggest one…
We reviewed Wicked: For Good when it came to theaters in late 2025, finding it to be darker and sadder than the first movie with a moving conclusion.

Shenmue is a game that will just always be there, I can’t quite imagine a world without it. Just hanging around in the background, waiting for you patiently, maybe even coming into the foreground to say hello again because it missed you. That time of saying hello appears to be rearing its beautiful head again, as Ys Net (and of course the one and only Yu Suzuki himself) have announced a new, shinier edition of Shenmue 3 is on the way. Quite simply titled Shenmue 3 Enhanced, it is very much a does what it says on the…
How do you beat Tenebrum? Crimson Desert isn’t shy of throwing a few super-difficult boss fights at you. These difficulty spikes can be frustrating, especially if you want to get back to the easy life of fishing and going on a bit of a ramble. Tenebrum is the perfect example of this; it isn’t necessarily the difficulty that surprised us, but how obscure the solution to the fight was. Some bosses in Crimson Desert, like the Reed Devil, for instance, are hard because of how ferocious they are; hammering you with flurries of attacks, giving you little time to react,…
There’s no shortage of brilliant wargames that, realistically, you probably haven’t heard about. The grimdark Trench Crusade. Apex Legends’ tabletop adaptation, which blends skirmishing with the best board games. But for all of them, I don’t know if any excite me as much as Malediction.As someone with a toddler and way too many hobbies for my own good, I don’t have a lot of time for grand, sweeping games. That’s why smaller, more focused experiences that won’t take up a full afternoon are my speed right now – Kill Team, Underworlds, that sort of thing. Malediction falls neatly within that…
It’s easy to look at a walking simulator like Firewatch and only see what’s been stripped out. After all, it’s a genre that got its start when developers took the shooting out of first-person shooters. However, look a little closer and you will see how much design can go into the simplest interactions. In the lookout cabin you call home in Firewatch there is a desk. On one side of that desk you will find a pine cone and on the opposite side you will find a picture frame. Hover your cursor over either item and press ‘E’ and you…
How do you get a dog in Crimson Desert? In the city, during the festivities, you’re given a mission to take in a stray dog. Even though this is part of the main quest, we would have done it anyway, as all dogs are good, and we want all the dogs. The method of getting the pooch on side is a bit obscure, however, so here’s an explainer on how to do it. There are many important missions Kliff has to complete in Crimson Desert, from defeating the frustrating and powerful Tenebrum boss to solving the mystery of Glenbright Manor.…
There are two endings you can get in Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, creating a dilemma for any potential sequels or further installments in the universe. Well, that’s what you’d think anyway: developer Sandfall Interactive is refusing to choose, regardless of whatever else emerges from the setting.Jennifer Svedberg-Yen, a lead writer on the JRPG-inspired blockbuster, explained the studio’s perspective to IGN. “We are not going to pick one,” she says, definitively. “Never say never, but there is no canon ending there. It is a Schrodinger’s ending.”I’ll keep this vague if you haven’t finished Clair Obscur, but the finale contains a fork…
I truly hope the sun has got his hat on this weekend as I’m cycling out to family in the countryside and I’d rather not arrive soaked through by rain. Granted, I will be arriving soaked through with sweat, but I am happy with this outcome. For reasons I can’t quite fathom, self-wetted clothes are bearable, weather-wetted clothes are intolerable. While I try to get to the bottom of this distinction, let’s see what the team will be playing this weekend. OllieI said last week that I’m thirsting for a factory game again, and I think I might have found…
