Since you likely spent dozens of hours slurping virtual noodles and scraping for chits on Erlin's Eye, you probably have a specific expectation of what a sequel to one of the best narrative RPGs of the decade should feel like. You want that same desperate, cozy, terrifying sense of precarity, but you want it to…
If you’ve spent any time in the puzzle-gaming community over the last year, you’ve probably heard people talking about "the notebook." Not a digital log or an in-game menu, but an actual, physical stack of paper filled with scribbled safe codes, floor plans, and family trees. That’s the legacy of Blue Prince. Ever since it…
The digital lobby is a strange place. You’re standing there, waiting for the countdown, and you look at the names floating above the other characters. You see a "ShadowSlayer99," a "DarkKnight_Vengeance," and then, suddenly, there is "Tactical_Toaster." In an instant, you know who you’d rather have a conversation with. There's just something about a funny…
There was a time, maybe ten or fifteen years ago, where a "funny card game" almost exclusively meant one thing: matching a prompt card with a shocking or "edgy" answer. You know the ones. They were revolutionary back then because they gave us permission to be irreverent. But as the tabletop hobby has matured, we’ve…
Sony really knows how to keep things under wraps when they want to.

Is it possible that a three-minute promotional clip just put decades of Hollywood movies to shame? If you’ve seen the new live-action trailer for Resident Evil Requiem, you might be nodding your head. Capcom just dropped this short film, titled "Evil Has Always Had a Name," and it hits on a level that the flashy,…
Finding that perfect game to play with friends and bridge the gap between "we’re all just staring at our phones" and "we’re actually having a blast" is harder than it looks. You've probably been there: the group chat is buzzing, someone suggests a game night, and then you spend forty minutes debating which title won't…
Finding a game that actually captures that fluttery, "crush-y" feeling without being cringey is a bit of a tall order.

This is where Poki's love…
When you're looking for a way to kill an afternoon, "funny games" can mean a lot of different things.
