I know as a Danganronpa fan I can hardly talk, but I'm playing Zero Escape and the amount of times characters will stop in a deadly situation to have long-winded conversations about random stuff is WILD.

Seeing claims that Steam is blocking games that contain "mature themes" from releasing through early access. If you have been affected or have any info on this, I'd love to hear from you. Either pop me a DM here, or email me rhiannon.b@thegamer[dot]com

I know Murder is already a card, I know this a supervillain, and I know this doesn't matter, but something about his name being a cutesy pun for a violent crime bothers me.

The cool thing about autism is that you can get an easy rush of dopamine when everything else in your life is going to shit just by: - Looking at your Assassin's Creed cards - Thinking about how much you like Assassin's Creed - Imagining how you could be playing Assassin's Creed right now

Kirby and The Forgotten Land is still utterly darling on Switch 2. I don't think the new campaign does anything particularly novel but jumping into this world for a bunch of new levels is far from a bad thing. For less than $20 this feels like a pretty good deal.

Hellraiser: Revival might have been my highlight of Gamescom. I adore Alien: Isolation, but for years it feels like licensed horror has been more interested in multiplayer instead of single-player experiences. With this, things are finally changing:
