“Clickers”, a type of game where you literally do nothing but click a button, tend to be very simple things. Universal Paperclips is a clicker, but it’s also a lot more. Made by game designer Frank Lantz, it puts you in charge of a young paperclip startup, with an enterprising online vision for the creation…

It’s been almost a year since Civ VI was released, and in that time Firaxis has been trying to address some of the issues fans have had with the enormous and otherwise excellent game. The upcoming Fall Updatecontinues this process. Coming later in…the Fall, it’s going to flesh out religion by adding some new beliefs…
In 1994, Jean-Jacques Beineix made a documentary called Otaku. It features a nine-minute tour of Nintendo’s offices, and it is wonderful to watch. The original recording is in French (and has circulated online for a while), but ComputerTales recently uploaded a version featuring machine translation into English, which while jarring still at least lets you…
Ruben Aguilar is a young French footballer who plays for Montpellier in Ligue 1.

Alyson Tabbitha, a regular around here for her astounding make-up and costume work, returns with this temporary diversion where she ceases to be a human cosplayer and becomes an Amazonian ass-kicker. Note that as amazing as this outfit is, it’s not yet done: the shot began as a simple test, because she still hadn’t done…
Being Australian, I don’t have much time for baseball. That doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy baseball video games, though. Especially when they’re from the future Super Baseball 2020 is a game developed by SNK and was first released in 1991 for its Neo Geo platform. It is, as the name suggests, an idea of what…

Washington running backs Keith Marshall and Rob Kelley were in the Gamestop store at the Dulles 28 Centre in Virginia on Tuesday. When they saw a kid wearing a Colin Kaepernick jersey then asking how much Xbox One consoles were, the pair got together and bought one for him. The duo were in the store…
I have a thing for isometric video games, so big thanks to Mark Mayers for linking this gallery of Ocarina of Time areas cut open and laid out. They’re from the site VGMaps, “the largest source of screenshot maps on the Internet”, which incidentally is now where I’ll be spending the rest of my week.
Let’s keep this simple: Total War: Warhammer was a very good strategy game. Total War: Warhammer 2 is better. The game continues Creative Assembly’s tradition of building on the release of a new Total War with a sort of semi-sequel. In the past we’ve seen a bunch of these, from Napoleon (following Empire) to Attila…

Board games. They’re fun! And loads of people who play them also play video games. And the companies who make board games are really starting to figure this out. Steamforged games, who made a few million with their Dark Souls adaptation last year, have now turned their eye to Resident Evil. Resident Evil 2, specifically,…
Because Skyrim’s dragons and dead guys were never quite tough enough, the game is now adding something more dangerous: weather and hunger. They’re part of an update called Survival Mode, which is coming to Skyrim Special Edition on PC, Xbox One and PS4. Whole parts of the map (below) have now been zoned to reflect…
BIGO is an artist from Brazil working in both video games and books. I love this Star Wars stuff. It looks like the best iOS game Disney never bothered to make. An XCOM-y adventure game that looked like this would change the world. You can see more of BIGO’s art at their ArtStationand Behancepages. To…
