I've finished two new games that look at the intersection of technology and the impact of climate change over the next 30 years. Not a similarity I was expecting from the names Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss and Aphelion, but there you are

Someone recommended Is This Seat Taken? to me a couple of weeks ago and they were absolutely right to do so. Lovely little puzzler to play on the Switch

Picked this up, mostly because the date lined up quite well with when I was watching the show and I've devoured it over the last few days. It's incredible to take a peak behind the curtains and see what went into something like that, highly recommended if you're of a similar vintage

A well-written book about (in my opinion) the greatest game ever made. Smashing to see it back out there for people to read who didn't get a chance last time. I'm due another playthrough soon so will be picking it up to see what's new.

Just finished listening to this. The only 60s Irwin Allen I'd experienced before was Lost in Space and this certainly lives up to that. A wonderful cast, heartfelt stories and a fantastic pace. I have to agree with

I've finally got round to submitting my new talk! Had a great time last year and really excited about what I've been working on for 2026. There's still plenty of time to submit if you're thinking about doing it.

Slightly late to the party, but I've finally got round to watching The Long Walk. I thoroughly enjoyed it, with another standout performance from David Jonsson.

Given it's what he's been doing for over 20 years, it does feel quite cruel to the others to have a task that's basically "Make a weird short film" when Reece Shearsmith is taking part.
