Wanted this game since I saw it in the store on the 23rd, today I finally got it and I have to say it has really lived up to my expectations. Simple yet beautiful design and the music is so beautiful and nice. It really calms you down. I'm so glad I was gifted this, I highly recommend people to get this.

Games like Remember Me, for the memory remix more than the city

Games like Remember Me, picked for the Memory Remix rather than the neon: minds you can break into, a vertical city to climb, and combos you build yourself.

Games like Noita, where the physics is the real enemy

Games like Noita for the two things it really does: spells you assemble yourself, and a simulated world that takes nobody's side. Seven picks, from a slugcat to a dwarf fortress.

Tormented Souls price: a horror game that stopped moving

The Tormented Souls price has not budged in six weeks of our readings. What that means for buying it, and whether the 2025 sequel is the better purchase instead.
