Last week, I covered news that the JRPG-inspired Path of the Midnight Sun will be launching in January. I was pretty excited about it. It has a strong concept: taking care outside of battles helps within battles. It’s like an entire game based on self-care! Well, I’ve now had the…
Read MoreI do imagine that the deck-building genre is about to hit a lull. For several years now it’s been one of the darlings of the indie industry, as it works nicely with the roguelike structures that indies favour. Additionally, it allows for quite a bit of depth via the cards…
Read MoreI really never thought I would play Jesus Christ does Morrowind. There are Christian games, yes (and they’re universally terrible). There are open world games. It’s such a surreal idea to combine the two of these that I’m still struggling to parse it despite having played through the prologue. And…
Read MoreThe embargo for our Tactics Ogre Reborn hands-on preview lifted late on Friday night, so we didn’t have time to do an article for it here (we were off celebrating our IT Journo Lizzies Award win). However, this game is absolutely amazing, and Tactics Ogre is FINALLY back! One of…

Read MoreToday was a pretty woeful day in Australia. I don’t want to bore the non-Australians here, but here’s the short version: we’re a country that will be at the forefront of climate change devastation. Today, our Greens political party (who went to the last election on the promise of hard…
Read MoreWe should be talking a lot more about The Dragoness: Command Of The Flame, because it taps into something that we don’t see nearly enough of anymore. It’s releasing in September, and from what I’ve been playing of it, it’s excellent. The lack of chatter about it leaves me worried…
Read MoreI’ve barely started with Xenoblade Chronicles 3, but I already know two things: firstly, this is a game that I want to take my time and savour, and secondly, it’s probably going to be a pretty thinky game. It’s already thinky, and I’m only one chapter in. Related reading: You…
