I dette nummeret

Welcome to issue 190 of The GameOn Magazine! The fans are blowing full force across GameOn Towers as I type, and the sun is threatening to melt the parking lot. But, our PCs and consoles have high-tech cooling solutions which I don’t fully understand, so swings and roundabouts.
Amongst our articles this month are looks at being a bad Borderlands fan, the recently-announced Deadpool VR, and Helldivers 2. Someone also played too much League of Legends (by their own admission!), and we’ve got a new From The Top! We also have an interview about Quantum Witch.
On the preview front, both TurretGirls and Is This Seat Taken? are releasing this month, and the other three games are already out in Early Access. One even fits with our Book Lovers Day article (celebrate it yourself on 9th of August).
Finally, our reviews have Dylan absolutely Lost in Random: The Eternal Die, Bex trying to Date Everything!, and Jacob engaging the Star Overdrive. Of course, Violet put a spell on Quantum Witch, Mike lived his best FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time, and Joshua played the Crown Gambit.
There’s plenty more, of course, so just get to reading and GameOn until next issue!

Game Over: Follow the meaning

Follow the meaning is a point-and-click puzzler that's described as short, strange, and satisfying — and it certainly is! I'm glad one of my late-night Steam browsing sessions led me to this little gem from HiKing Mind Studio. Across my two-hour playthrough, I've helped cats find their way home, deceived a bouncer into letting me enter a club, met three-eyed folks who are shunned by society, and even briefly found myself transported to another dimension.

Why Addon Changes Are a Positive Step for World of Warcraft

Love or hate them, World of Warcraft's addons are up for changes. Game Director, Ion Hazzikostas, recently sat down with PC Gamer, announcing plans to limit combat addon functionality, which prompted mixed reception from both the PvE and PvP communities. If you've found your way to this article, you might be feeling excited, confused, sceptical, or convinced that this is a poor decision for WoW; that's all valid, so let's talk about it.

Marvel's Deadpool VR Looks Fun

I Played 367 Matches of Brawl (Yes, Really) — Here's What It Got Right (and not)

I've been a fan of League of Legends for a few years, starting back in Season 2 when Darius was adorning the login screen by smashing in the head of a hapless soldier.

Story-Driven Games That Feel Like Reading a Good Book

I don't know what I love more: curling up on the couch with a blanket and reading a good book or playing a narrative-heavy game that lets me craft my own adventure and meet memorable characters. There's really no way to choose between the two, so why not do both simultaneously?

Dragonkin: The Banished

I decided to check out the Early Access of Dragonkin: The Banished, an isometric hack-and-slash action RPG developed by Eko Software and published by Nacon. I've always been interested in playing something like Diablo, but due to Activision-Blizzard's less-than-stellar track record over the years, I've avoided it like the plague until now. So, what did I experience in this little slice of dragon slaying?

Is This Seat Taken?

I'm a fan of puzzle games — I just happen to be a bit useless at them. However, a wholesome puzzle game with no move or time limits, like Is This Seat Taken? I just had to give it a spin.

FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time

The Nintendo 3DS was home to some truly fantastic RPGs, with Fantasy Life being one of my personal favourites. So, when developer Level-5 announced FANTASY LIFE i: The Girl Who Steals Time in 2023, needless to say, I was pretty excited! Now, two years later, the game is finally here, and it looks just as charming as the first!

Lost in Random: The Eternal Die

Lost in Random: The Eternal Die is an action roguelite developed by Stormteller Games and published by Thunderful Publishing (which I didn't know was a sequel until literally as I upload this review).

Date Everything!

Hello, and welcome to Valvidian, where you'll be starting your first day in a new role (brought to you by your friend Sam), and where you'll finally make use of your customer service degree! Now, as a remote worker, you won't have many perks, but you don't even have to leave your office.

Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo

Grab your Pocket Trap Game System and pop in the Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo cartridge to jump into this 2D top-down adventure. This game looks like it was released for the Game Boy Advance, with a vibrant and pixelated look. Developed by Pocket Trap — thus the name of the fake console you are playing on — and published by PM Studios, get ready for this retro-inspired yoyovania (coined by the developer, not me). Will this game capture the magic of titles like Legend of Zelda and Startropics on the NES, or will it feel dated, like it should remain in the past?

Mandragora Whispers of the Witch Tree

I will admit, I am not the biggest fan of side-scrolling games that aim to be the next DARK SOULS. However, let it never be said that I won't try new things.

TRON: Catalyst

The TRON franchise has been around for more years than I've been alive and started by telling the story of Kevin Flynn, a videogame developer and computer programmer who is pulled into the world of a mainframe computer.

Cubic Odyssey

Cubic Odyssey looked like if a combination of No Man's Sky and Minecraft had a baby, and as someone who enjoys both of those titles? Well, I had to try it out. Developed by Atypical Games and published by Gaijin Network Ltd, this has been Atypical Games' newest release since Infinite Tanks in 2017. However, it's also Atypical Games' first one that hasn't been published in-house. So, while I've never played an Atypical Games title before, I thought that Cubic Odyssey looked interesting enough to try out.

Crown Gambit

When it comes to dark fantasy, there's no doubt that Celtic and Breton folklore is something of an untapped market. However, the most recent game from WILD WITS, Crown Gambit, wants to take you into the dark. The question is whether this title should be added to your deck, or will it fold on release?

Star Overdrive

Star Overdrive is an action-adventure title developed by Caracal Games, and it has left me feeling unbelievably mixed.

LUNAR Remastered Collection

2025 has been a great year to be a fan of turn-based role-playing games, with many titles receiving the remaster treatment, releasing for original fans and new players to check out.

Guards II: Chaos in Hell

Have you ever wanted a game that you could play in the background without requiring hours of your emotional time? I'm talking about a game that you can pick up after a long break and not have to spend half your playtime trying to figure out what happened the last time you played. Well, that's the kind of game Guards II: Chaos in Hell from developer Battlecruiser Games wants to be, so let's see if this is a journey into Hell that is worth taking, or if you’d be better served playing Minesweeper again.

Squeakross: Home Squeak Home

I've been a fan of nonograms, also known as Picross if you want to get Nintendo-y with it, ever since I picked up a random free game on my phone in high school.

Tainted Grail: Fall of Avalon

The first person fantasy RPG genre has been dominated by a certain bundle of geriatric vellum, so seeing another title throwing their hat in the ring is both a surprise and a pleasure, even if dethroning the Elder Scrolls can be a monumental task.

Quantum Witch

Developed and published by NikkiJay, Quantum Witch is a pixelated 2D narrative-driven adventure that I feel is best described by one of the (clever) sentences on the Steam page: \"Not an action platformer: a story PLOTformer — you're here for the narrative!\". In it, we embody a 20-something shepherdess named Ren, a charismatic character who starts off her day looking for her lost flock and ends up caught up in a situation that could (and can and probably will, depending on how many times you play it) end her world.

FBC: Firebreak

What could be better than enjoying a shower with one of your best friends / coworkers? That's right, sharing a shower with TWO of your best friends... This is an oddly common occurrence within FBC: Firebreak, and one that sets the tone of this bizarre title well. FBC is a three-player coop horde shooter, set within the Remedy universe (Alan Wake and Control). More specifically, you play as a member of Firebreak, an elite crew formed to handle the bizarre and supernatural events that take place within The Oldest House.
