What Are You Playing This Weekend?

The weekend is for watching all of Bojack Horseman with your friend and probably not crying. Or only crying a little. Or crying a lot. And then playing video games. I am super close to finishing Dishonored 2, and it’s really grown on me. I’m excited to finish it up in time for Death of…

What Are You Playing This Weekend?

The weekend is for going to the farmer’s market near your house for the first time, because that seems like a very modern long weekend thing to do. Also, video games.

What Are You Playing This Weekend?

Weekends are for making up for last week’s lousy meal prep by toning down your learning to cook ambitions a little. Also, video games.

Which Games Scared You As A Kid?

What Are You Playing This Weekend?

The weekend is for cleaning the house. No, really. Really this time. Also, video games. I’ve got some games to check out for next week, but I’ll also be playing more The Long Dark, because there are a lot of places in the new map where I haven’t died yet. I’m also pretty keen on…

The Long Dark‘s New Story Has Problems, But The Game Is Still Brilliant

A journey through the world of the freezing woods of the survival game The Long Dark has long been wonderful. The sky constantly changes; the snow is breathtaking.
