Hello and welcome to Get Your Game On! Did you miss me? I, Maddi, am back again for another dose of news this week.

I recently enjoyed both Universal Paperclips and Dicey Dungeons, which had me glued to my phone over the weekend. If you’ve been playing games to beat the heat, tell us about it on Twitter, or, if you’re a member of our Patreon at the Sega Genesis tier or higher, in our Discord! Without further ado, the news.

Hello and welcome to Get Your Game On. My name is Maddi and last week sure was… awful… as the U.S. government continued its assault on people’s rights to bodily autonomy.
