Hello and welcome to Get Your Game On. My name is Maddi and I hope that wherever you are, you’re staying cool during this intense July heatwave. I’ve been playing even more games than usual since going outside has started to feel like walking into an oven. 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 GYGO! I’m Kael, your local mythology kid, and I’ve finally started playing Hades. I’m about 20 hours in and so tantalizingly close to my first escape attempt it feels like Zeus himself placed it just out of my reach. I took a break from metaphorically rolling a boulder up to Elysium and gathered this week’s gaming news. Enjoy! (more…)

Buckle up y’all, this is going to be a long one. But first, hey, how are you doing? Been playing games, staying hydrated? I’ve been doing a lot of the first and probably less than I should of the latter—I recently finished Va-11 Hall-A and have been working through Murder By Numbers, a delightfully campy visual novel in which you investigate dramatic murders by solving nonograms. Now, as for the nonfiction dramatic events of this week… let’s get to it. (more…)

Hi everybody! Animal Crossing: New Horizons is out! I’ve been doing nothing but playing it! Lots of other things happened this week but they’re not important! Just kidding, I’ll talk about them also! I’m just so excited about Animal Crossing and its amazing power to make all the chaos of the outside world simply melt away! Nothing could possibly be wrong, everything’s fine on my island! Speaking of Animal Crossing: (more…)
