My first YouTube video is out, made with love for my fellow imsim enjoyers and fans of Arkane & Wolfeye. Turn on closed captions for gameplay explanations and funny conversations. Like and share are greatly appreciated, please enjoy! ⬇️ www.youtube.com/watch?v=IiDd...

Dishonored and Arkane were trending on the bird site, so I created some gameplay videos to help keep the love going. It's a shame I can't upload anything that's not blurry and longer than a minute to Bluesky due to the 100MB size limit.

Chapter 2 of SCP: Fragmented Minds introduced a new mechanic that's very familiar to Dishonored fans.

4 indie immersive sims in 1 month.

Thick As Thieves has pivoted its focus from Multiplayer PvPvE to Singleplayer and Co-op.

if you actually want something new similar to cruelty squad i think you should give BLOOD FACSIMILE a go www.youtube.com/watch?v=GdF8...

She's back, Dizzie's back, Fortune's run back!

I've never met a single transgender person in real life, but the education I received as a child/teenager and the principles I follow during adulthood never allows me to misunderstand, disrespect, discriminate people that's unfamiliar to and different from me.

happy trans day from rhell :)

I didn't realize Hunter: The Reckoning is inspired by Deus Ex and Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines

I don't wanna be the person to tell you that it used to be "Arkane Studios Sale"

Arkane Studio Sale on Steam

Rhell is so good that I wrote a Reddit post.

Here's an early puzzle in Rhell: a burning bridge across the river and a nearby ice rune. Let's see how different people solve it: 1. Olexa on YouTube (intended solution) 2. A friend whom I recommended Rhell to 3. Yahtzee on YouTube 4. What I learned after playing for a while

I bought the call and ball bundle.

Rhell is fast becoming one of my favorite immersive sims (and I’ve played plenty of them). PLAY IT!

One of my most anticipated games, Moves of the Diamond Hand, will launch into early access on April 13! This new TTRPG immersive sim hybrid is Cosmo D's most ambitious game, 4 times longer than Betrayal At Club Low even in early access. An updated demo is also available NOW.

If you type 0451 at any time while playing The Magic Circle, the achievement Cultural Collaborator will be unlocked. "There is no keypad here, but you did it anyway."

An immersive sim that players of all ages can enjoy is super rare, I can’t wait to play it when I wake up in the morning, good night!

Some immersive sims and adjacent games at the Computer Worlds showcase by noclip_2: NEW GAME ANNOUNCEMENT World of Dogs Brush Burial: Bruiseland DEMO OUT TODAY Brush Burial: Bruiseland 500 Caliber Contractz RELEASE ON JUNE 17 goblinAmerica

100%'d The Magic Circle. It's half an immersive sim where you assign verbs to different minions to explore and solve problems, and half a fourth wall-breaking fever dream where the developers invite you on a sweat and tears behind-the-scenes tour.

Important new information from NO LAW, a cyberpunk immersive sim FPS (Edge #421): 🧵

I was expelled from the Party. "Every comrade saw you jumping there, it was embarrasing!", they said.

Beautiful risings gamers, Spectra demo is out RIGHT NOW

I have tried the playtest/demo for this System Shock-inspired puzzler FPS-RPG, it's pretty neat!

Today (March 3) is the Chinese Lantern Festival, which marks the end of the Chinese New Year. I pray for peace, harmony, prosperity, happiness for all.

Spectra

Death to imperialism.

Did you play any immersive sim demos at the Steam Next Fest? 1️⃣ Hark the Ghou: Kings Field-inspired action dungeon crawler 2️⃣ Rhell: semi-open-world adventure puzzler 3️⃣ Cralon: Ultima Underworld-inspired old school dungeon crawler 4️⃣ Blood Facsimile: surreal sci-fi shooter

Thick As Thieves (pvpve multiplayer stealth game by OtherSide Entertainment, Warren Spector, Greg LoPiccolo, and Paul Neurath) playtest invitations have been sent out!

ARC Raiders just killed its own Deus Ex "LAM Climbing" moments: - stacking traps to create a foothold to cancel fall damage ❌ - using explosion to turn fixed mine into a mobile nuke ❌ - building barricade contraption to send yourself up ❌

Learned this tech from other players, great feeling when it worked: - Trigger 'Nade (remote c4) gives the blast - Remote Raider Flare provides a non-fixed stand - Deadline (timed explosive mine) attaches to one side of the flare and gets blown away with it to kill boss ARC

Half of the things you can do with a grappling hook in ARC Raiders. I'm impressed as a singleplayer immersive sim enjoyer.

ARC Raiders might be the best multiplayer game I can recommend to singleplayer immersive sim enjoyers, better if you are the stealthy, pacifist, packrat, introvert type (like me).

Happy Spring Festival!🧧🎉🎆

My new year has come. Happy Chinese New Year! You met me at a very Chinese time in your life. 🐴

Do you know any more examples of mechanics like body morphing from Fable (absent from the reboot) and demon points from Phantom Pain? They are such interesting ways to show consequences of player actions.

Immersive sims are notoriously hard to describe or define, but amusingly easy to demonstrate

It's hard to find footage on the internet so I recorded my own. Prey is still my favorite immersive sim.

Reminds me of the good old Gloo Cannon ball + Huntress Boltcaster ricochet trick :)

Johnny I thought you had the key what the heck

Epic Mickey having immersive sim design in places that no one would notice 🙃 - Give 1 mask; steal it back, give again; give 3rd mask; owner doesn't notice - Give 2 masks; steal them back, give again; numbers don't match, two sets too obvious; owner gets mad - Give 3 masks

"Well, I'll eat it," said Alice, "and if it makes me grow larger, I can reach the key; and if it makes me grow smaller, I can creep under the door: so either way I'll get into the garden, and I don't care which happens!" Alice is ONE OF US immersive sim sickos.

What is the biggest challenge in creating narrative for an immersive sim? I asked Wolfeye writer Lucas Loredo through my friend Andy. He not only answered, but also went on to talk about Prey, Weird West, Fallout and Wolfeye's next game "as much as legally possible". Link 👇

Caught up with all the new Gloomwood updates, such an exceptional game even in early access. It's going to be a monumental immersive sim when it reaches 1.0 with more areas, AI and QoL improvements.

Pathologic 3's time-travelling concept sounds pretty cool, I wish I had the time to play it soon. www.youtube.com/watch?v=BaQx...

The antagonist keeps shooting itself, but the antagonist is a bullet sponge.

Post-apocalyptic bounty hunter imsim FPS-RPG ExeKiller released its gameplay overview with developer commentary. youtu.be/dEeUzd4nAmQ?...

Project Shadowglass aims to be the first Thief-inspired imsim to feature raytraced audio reflections, along with dynamic shadows, physics-based interactions, and day/night cycle. It seems to be still at prototype stage, but a demo is promised to be coming this year. youtu.be/IZIc4IFNeGQ?...

Epic Mickey remake permanently dropped price to $39.99/39.99€/£34.99 today, likely due to poor sales. Who at THQ Nordic thought $60 was a good idea for Epic Mickey when all the SpongeBob and Destroy All Humans games are in the $30-40 range.
