Look at Blanka out here, still biting faces and electrocuting folks at an age others are getting ready to settle in for some golf and orthopedic shoes Seeing as Blanka isn’t in Street Fighter V (yet), if you want to imagine what he’s up to these days at the age of 51, this is probably…
Civilization VI’s barbarians work much like they do in every other game in the series. Well, mostly. There are a few frustrating exceptions. Frustrations that Gotta Keep Moist has absolutely nailed here.

Invisigun Heroes is very similar to Bomberman. Only there’s more shooting. Oh, and everyone is invisible I first wrote about the game last year, but it was finally released this week, so I jumped into the launch build to take a look. It’s pretty good! It works like this: four players face off on a…
