Having grown up in the era of Disney’s film renaissance, I am well versed in all things mouse. I know the songs by heart, have watched every animated movie, and have visited Disneyworld more times than an adult probably should. But what’s never really jelled with me is Disney games – the last one I enjoyed was Toy Story 2 for the PlayStation. Until now.
Disney Dreamlight Valley feels like a Disney game created just for me. It combines all the things I love most in games: life-sim, character customisation, narrative-driven stories, and very cute critters. There’s faithful voice acting and music throughout, and many easter eggs for Disneyphiles to find. It’s a Disney game made with millennials in mind, featuring beloved characters from the ’90s films alongside modern favourites like Elsa and Moana.

CELEBRATING 10 YEARS OF THE ELDER SCROLLS ONLINE
Few online RPGs have transformed as much in the past decade as The Elder Scrolls Online. First debuting in April of 2014 as a confused, awkward thing, loved by few. Today, it proudly stands alongside its singleplayer peers. Here's how TESO escaped Oblivion's grasp and reconnected with Elder Scrolls fans.
