Out of the host of games that I got to check out during BIG Festival in July, Death Squared was easily the one that caused the strongest emotional response. That emotion was bewilderment, with a pinch of rage. It’s a really clever puzzle game that makes fantastic use of dual analog controls as you keep…
You’re being summoned to a new co-op piece! This time, we tackle From Software’s newest game, Elden Ring.
This new version of the classic Oregon Trail pays homage to its history while also introducing plenty of new content.
