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.

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?

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.

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.

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.
