This is a much more fun game than Zen Studios's FX. If any of you miss the Williams tables, just know, you can switch to the 2017 beta code and purchase most of them (Except everything after Bram Stoker's) and you can get ACDC if switch to the 2018 beta code and do the same thing. NOTE: These purchases can only be made via Steam Wallet funds. You're welcome!

It's good but it has its issues. Glitches and crashes that'll never be fixed but it's a solid simulation. Screw FarSight though. They laid off nearly their entire staff to make crappy bowling and cornhole games, so they don't deserve anyone's cash. I don't recommend buying any DLC personally, but if you do, you should definitely get it on sale. The tables they lost the rights to are still in the game despite being delisted, and they barely made an effort to cover that up. Do with that info what you will ;)

Games like Dying Light, where nightfall changes the rules

Games like Dying Light are easy to find if you only want parkour or only want zombies. These eight keep the part that matters: a city that becomes a different place after dark.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.

Toxic Commando Game Pass: subscribe, or buy the key?

The Toxic Commando Game Pass add landed on 12 November. Our price record since late September shows the key route barely moved, which changes what a subscription is worth.

Games like Titanfall 2, for the pilot or for the Titan

Titanfall 2's campaign changed its own rules every mission. Games like Titanfall 2 that keep one part of it — the wall-running, the mech, or a campaign that never settles.

Games like It Takes Two, where the second player is the point

It Takes Two cannot be played alone, and that is the whole design. Games like It Takes Two that give each player a different job — including one that makes do with a single pair of hands.
