Adventure games are almost synonymous with the PC, and some of the best proved that videogames could be funny long before modern favorites like Thank Goodness You’re Here. Revolution gave us Broken Sword; Sierra delivered King’s Quest; LucasArts brought Day of the Tentacle, Full Throttle, and of course both Monkey Island and Sam and Max, […]
4th January Hello and Happy New Year! Did you have a nice break? I hope so. This is our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we’ve been playing, in this case, over the festive break. This time, we gorged on loot in Diablo 4 and Path of Exile […]
Keeping a Connections win streak going can be challenging at the best of times, so if you are in need of some tips and hints, then Newsweek has your back. The popular brainteaser was launched by The New York Times in June 2023 and has gone on to become the newspaper’s second-most played game behind […]
I come and go with the work of Ken Levine, celebrated auteurman and reported burnout-inducing manager, but I’m interested to see more of Judas, his current project at Ghost Story Games. The concept for Judas is that you’re trapped in a computer-run society housed aboard a colony ship, the Mayflower. The titular Judas has managed […]
If you’re still in holiday mode, Newsweek is here to help you with today’s Connections puzzle. The brainteaser was launched by The New York Times in June 2023 and has gone on to become the newspaper’s second-most played game behind Wordle, another word-based puzzle. According to the publication, today’s difficulty is 2.8 out of 5. […]
It’s rare that a game released in the last gasp of December manages to not just make a lasting impression on almost a dozen-odd members of staff, but a big enough one to almost instantly supplant the last dozen months’ worth of equally excellent video games they’ve all been playing. But that’s precisely what Indiana […]
In the 1980s and ’90s golden age of point-and-click adventure classics, we were blessed with what has since developed into decades of self-referential comedy, iconic puzzle set-ups, and satisfying inventory management. LucasArts (now Lucasfilm Games) came in strong, furnishing us with family-friendly releases like Monkey Island, Maniac Mansion, and Day of the Tentacle; Revolution Software’s […]
We’re Impostors is an extremely attractive and lightweight action game. The character will do tasks such as pushing objects and slashing enemies and guardians to rescue teammates. They are imprisoned in the enemy’s place and waiting for you to come to free them. The game has many special levels. Characters can exchange different skills and […]
There’s no denying that Bloober’s accomplished and expansive Silent Hill 2 remake exceeded expectations, though I still prefer the 2001 classic’s terror-inducing, mind-warping creativity. Silent Hill 2 remake is technically a more proficient videogame than Team Silent’s original. It looks better, plays better, meets the expectations of the day, and builds out the town of […]
Each year, we like more games than we can fit in our Advent Calendar. Those honourable mentions get their due here, in 2024’s Selection Boxes. I’m a sucker for a good first-person runabout. I don’t need to shoot, but it’s sometimes nice to get a sword, or a big whip. As long as I get […]
