I was brought up with the mindset that when you start something you should see it through to the end, even if it gets a bit tricky. So perhaps that's why Resident Evil dropping its in-built Roman numerals irks me so. It all started with Resident Evil: 7 Biohazard where the Roman numerals for seven were shoved into the 'Evil' and then continued with Resident Evil: Village. So, in the...
Are you aware of Oh!Ware? I'm guessing not. The deckbuilder has been on Steam for about a week as of this writing, with a humble 23 reviews to its name so far. It caught my eye though, because the fundamental mechanic underneath the very 2026 trappings of a roguelike structure and marbles standing in for cards is mancala—a slightly older board game you probably played at some point in your...

Don't mind me: I'm just seething over not being able to actually hang out in Deadlock's occult New York for real. As Elie noted earlier today, Deadlock's latest update made its map even more arresting, fleshing out Valve's accursed big apple with new district stylings and reworked lanes.ValveValveValveDeadlock's world is so refreshingly flavorful that not being able to explore it in person almost feels like an injustice. I want to...
Deadlock's massive new update isn't a sign of an imminent public release, according to the MOBA's first proper development update. The invite-only game continues to grow in scope and polish, but Valve says there's still a lot of work to do."We think building a multiplayer game is very hard and risky, and the best way to minimize that risk [is] to make sure that we are able to have it...
Nivalis Nights Everyone's been waiting years for this cyberpunk "slice of life" and shop sim and I'm logging my nightly progress as my noodle bar empire begins. I enjoy a good shop sim, especially when there's decorating to do too. Nivalis Nights is moody and neon-drenched and has a deeper shop finances simulation than I was expecting. I may be sinking a lot of hours into this! Songs of Glimmerwick...
I kinda wish Deadlock wasn't a MOBA—not because I don't play MOBAs, you understand. I have a misspent youth of over 2,400 hours in Dota 2 and 340 of the suckers in Deadlock itself. I know ball. Rather, I think Deadlock's universe and characters are so damn charming that I'd love for more people to know about them, and the MOBA genre is kinda unassailable.And while the recent major Deadlock...
"Core Values is the first paid DLC for Satisfactory and a major expansion," developer Coffee Stain studios announced on Tuesday, with the trailer above revealing that the construction sim is taking building deep underground for the first time, introducing "new resources, flora, fauna and more."Here's how this news finds me: I should be Matt Berry in Toast of London convincingly shouting "Yes!" But instead, I'm Matt Berry in Toast of...
I cannot stop thinking about this user review for Star Wars Zero Company written by someone horrified to learn turn-based tactics games exist.(Image credit: Amazon)
The cursed city where Deadlock's battles take place just got even spookier than it already was in the City Never Sleeps update. Valve's second major overhaul for the invite-only MOBA marks another major step in its pseudo-early access development, giving it a much stronger visual identity than it had before, six striking new heroes, and a massive list of tweaks to how it plays.Deadlock's entire map has been redecorated into...
