The Pines asks what would Alan Wake look like if it was about therapy, and I kind of want to know the answer
Therapy is not the cure all that many like to make it out to be, but that doesn't mean your favourite gruff fictional detective couldn't still do it. This is, sort of, what The Pines is about, a game that if you squint real hard could probably pass for Alan Wake. The vibes are certainly similar, especially with Alan Wake 2, given that The Pines sees its protagonist finding himself in a strange, wooded (sort of) town, but it's got enough of its own thing going on to pique my interest.

Following mass layoffs, Epic are reportedly putting their hopes on a Disney extraction shooter
I do not like the combination of the words "Epic Games," "Disney," and "extraction shooter," yet write them I must. That's because of a new report from Bloomberg (paywalled), which digs into some of the issues the Fortnite developer has been facing in recent years with the popular battle royale, and the hopes the company is pinning on its Disney deal.

Crimson Desert's latest update beckons you to abandon the last of your attention span with its new 4x cutscene speed option
There are a myriad of reasons you might want to skip a cutscene in a game. It plays right before a boss you keep dying to and you just want to get back to it, you're a speedrunner, hell, you just don't care all that much about the story but like the gameplay. Different strokes! What I don't really understand is a desire to watch all the cutscenes, but sped up, an option Crimson Desert has offered right from the get go. Which, through its latest update, can go even faster. So long attention span,

What are we all playing this weekend?
After months of pleading for the sun to show its face, I'm actually feeling quite warm now. Potentially, I'd go so far as to say I'm too toasty. I'm not saying I'm looking forward to winter. But I'm not not saying it. Read more
Professor Layton and the New World of Steam gets a release window and adds PS5 and PC versions
After an early 2023 reveal, Professor Layton and the New World of Steam - the next entry in the long-running puzzle adventure series - hasn't been making much noise. Today's Level-5 showcase event has changed that with a new in-depth look at the game. Read more
While it plays its roguelike autobattling safe, Skull Horde does put a smile on my flaming skeleton head
Skull Horde, the dungeon-crawling, minion-raising autobattler from Bore Blasters devs 8BitSkull, is out today. I like, it, mostly – maybe not as much as Alice B (RPS in peace) appreciated its predecessor’s helicopter-mining, but then there’s enough meat on Skull Horde’s magic bones to distinguish it as more than just another Vampire Survivors reanimation.

And now it's coming to iOS and Android with cross-save, meaning you can take your existing games with you on-the-go. Read more
Esoteric Ebb review
When I tell people about Esoteric Ebb, I mostly say that I play an idiot, because there's something deeply comforting about being a waylaid government oaf. Sure, I've pledged allegiance to hierarchy and bureaucracy, but there's always the possibility of doing something naughty or exciting or even something unexpectedly brave. As an unassuming representative of the establishment, I dance on the knife's edge of plausible deniability and weaponised incompetency. Ultimately, though, there's always t
Swashbuckling co-op survivor Windrose sets sail into early access next week, which means it's time to battle Blackbeard and a big flower
Yo ho, me hearties. Windrose, the co-op pirate survival game which lured plenty of folks aboard its demo decks in the Steam Next Fest earlier this year, is set to launch into early access next week. Better start practicing those shanties and, er, preparing to stab a giant flower once you've fought weird plague creatures. Read more
