Yeah, this game rocks. If you’re tolerant of text-heavy RPGs that you play entirely through dialog prompts you should pick this up. It’s like Quest For Glory + Oregon Trail.
Anyone heard about Foretales? It’s a card-based adventure game that looks pretty well done. Released today and amazingly not another early access game. It got a favorable write up by Rock Paper Shotgun.
It looks really interesting. The mechanics are built around giving you all kinds of ways to approach problems by using different resources (gold, fame, grim, food) or character abilities.
I really enjoyed playing Norco on PC Game Pass recently, and wanted to point out that it’s coming to Playstation and Xbox soon (as well as Xbox Game Pass). Totally worth a look if you’re into point and click adventures.
This is giving me good good Gitaroo Man vibes:
OH! And great news! The sequel to Butterfly Soup is coming in October. One of the best written visual novels of all time.
(The original is free, here. PLAY IT)

That Trombone Champ trailer made me grin!
And this Steam review:

Y’all are giving me the Joneses.
“Rogue Glitch” is a lot of fun; can anyone tell me if online mode is worth it? $5 is a lot to me, these days (quietly sobs)

As a former All City tromboner in high school, I definitely want to try that game.

Heart of the Machine was announced by Arcen Games. The “demo” is some kind of editor and not a playable version. Seems like “The Last Federation” style simulation tinkering.
I think this is one of those games where the longer you play, the harder you laugh, the sloppier it gets, and the funnier it becomes.
The feed is blowing up with it now
As an occasional trombone player, watching these game clips hurt my brain so much I am paralyzed.
I don’t need to buy the game, I live with a 5th grader who plays trombone.

As a person who lives with a 9th grader who plays trombone, it gets better! The teenager stuff gets worse, but the trombone gets better.
