Welcome to another Wednesday! I have been preoccupied with other tasks and haven’t had time to play games recently, other than terrible phone games. I’m deep into season three of Love Island The Game 2, which is… I mean… it’s like… I guess it’s okay, but it lacks season two’s awful dramatics and entirely lacks the charm of Love Island The Game. I’ve also just learned that there’s a Too Hot to Handle game, which so far is pretty dull. Why are all these people so respectable? This is not what reality TV is for!
Anyway, here’s what’s been going on in the news lately.

Welcome to another week of gaming news! I haven’t played much over the past few weeks, but I will eventually write about Mask of the Rose, the visual novel entry into Failbetter’s extensive Fallen London universe. It’s lovely, if you like squid faces, Victorian manners, and flirting with everybody in sight.
But let’s move on to the gaming news! (more…)

It’s another week of games and another week of games news, and it seems like there’s been a recurring pattern in the industry lately that I can’t quite put my finger on… (more…)
Elvie somehow finds bliss in purposefully complicating the art of storytelling and undertaking the painful practice of animation. If you see her on Twitter at @lvmaeparian, she is doing neither of those things. She currently helps with managing the socials to ensure that the secret recipe will never be revealed.

Hello and happy Wednesday! I’ve been recovering from PAX West for what feels like ages, especially since I haven’t had time to write up my experience there yet. When not attending PAX West, I’ve been dabbling in Get in the Car, Loser!, the JRPG-inspired joy that is Love Conquers All Games’ latest game. Except when I’m playing a game for a review I should also be writing. Except when I’m playing Regency Solitaire. Yes, I still play Regency Solitaire. Find me a better Solitaire. You can’t!
Anyway, here’s what’s been happening in games while I fall further and further behind on self-imposed deadlines. (more…)

Welcome back to Get Your Game On! My name is Zainabb and I’ll be your guide through this week’s gaming news. My brain and body have been mush lately from sickness and hot weather so I haven’t been able to do much gaming. However, I did build a 1980s-themed high school in The Sims that I’m extremely proud of, and I’ve also been watching playthroughs of The Mortuary Assistant, which has some great scares I would never be able to handle playing through myself. Just call me a pro gamer.
Anyway, here’s what’s been happening in gaming this week. (more…)
