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've been a fan of Deadpool since the early 2000s, and wound up with quite a collection of comics featuring the Merc With A Mouth over the years.

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.

THE MAKING OF DRAKAN
EVERYONE KNOWS LARA CROFT, THE TOUGH 3D ACTION HEROINE. BUT HOW MUCH COOLER WOULD SHE BE IF SHE COULDN'T JUST JUMP AND SHOOT, BUT COULD ALSO DISH IT OUT IN HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT AND RIDE A FIRE-BREATHING DRAGON? WELL, THEN HER NAME WOULD NO LONGER BE LARA, BUT RYNN

NINJA COP
Hudson Soft's Ninja Cop swung into action on the Game Boy Advance, delivering fast-paced, justice-fuelled thrills and playing like a cross between Strider and Bionic Commando. It now demands a hefty price on the second-hand market, but is it actually worth the effort to track down?

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!

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?

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.

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.

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?
