- Some video games that are like Bandersnatch, but better - 9 January 2019
If you ve choosed-and-adventured through Bandersnatch, the recent Black Mirror thing on Netflix, and aren t already a fan of experimental interactive fiction: I envy you. It means you re able to play actually good examples of interactive fiction for the first time. Sure, Bandersnatch has funny lines, surprises and scene stealing performances from Will Poulter doing a pretty much exactly how I, the writer, talk in real life voice. But as a whole, video games have been iterating deeper on the main themes of control, authenticity, forced choice, meta-recursion and non-linearity for years, without also including an unhelpful portrayal of paranoid schizophrenia. When you love enough people who hear voices and suffer from castigatory delusions, maybe you become less enthused about media which depicts sufferers committing murders or throwing themselves off buildings. Fix it, Brooker. The same…

- A Tale of Two Announcements! 🍎🍊 - 20 September 2018
These are the best of times, these are the worst of times, it is the age of wisdom, it is the age of foolishness, it is the spring of hope, it is the winter of despair, it is the season of the apple... it is the age of the orange. https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F11090111%2F2052544f45d91a9ec6c612147dce7ad88b851a2a.jpg https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F11090111%2F20d64f5151732160a70ee37ef88fab00a8043ca6.jpg That’s right! You all guessed it months ago! Accounting+ is coming to HTC Vive and Oculus Rift very soon with ANOTHER big free update for all platforms. Take a bite out of that!

KEEP IT DOWN! We can very quietly announce that Crows Crows Crows is coming back to Steam! We’ve got a whole coffin full of PC games ready to release this instant- from small PC experiments gone wrong, to our very own Half Life 2: Episode Thr- https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F11090111%2Fa6fb101b36ec92d3cc8091366a20a19ad780a2d5.png SHHHH!!! Don’t say the forbidden phrase!! Now, before we can release these beauties we need to set a couple of things straight. The last time you saw us on here we’d just released Dr. Langeskov and Accounting. Look at them over there. Waving to us from the past. How little they both knew… https://cdn.steampulse.org/steam/asset?u=https%3A%2F%2Fsteamcdn-a.akamaihd.net%2Fsteamcommunity%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fclans%2F11090111%2F40628ccbaa212fa80b531b86143e84a7ed39eff0.gif Back in those sepia-snapchat filter days Crows Crows Crows was a smaller collection of dangerous individuals, mostly collab…
- Have You Played Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist? - 10 October 2017
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. A delirious and witty post-Stanley Parable statement of intent from William Pugh’s Crows Crows Crows – twenty minutes long and no-pennies in price, you have no excuse not try it. (more…)
- The 23 best bite-size games for busy lives - 5 May 2017
I am dad, hear me whinge. Too many games, not enough spare time, for all my non-work hours are spent kissing grazed knees, explaining why you cannot eat the food in that cupboard , constructing awful Lion King dioramas out of toilet roll tubes and being terrified that the next jump from the sofa to the armchair will go fatally wrong. I’m lucky in that my job to some extent involves playing games, so by and large if there’s something I really want to check out I can find a way to, but I appreciate that there are many long-time, older or otherwise time-starved readers for whom RPS is a daily tease of wondrous things they cannot play. Now, clearly I cannot magically truncate The Witcher 3 into three hours for you, but what I can do is suggest a few games from across the length and breadth of recent PC gaming that can either be completed within a few hours or dipped into now and…
- A Good Bundle offering 151 games for cheapo - 22 November 2016
The bohemian sewer of neon lights and indie games known as Itch.io has posted a huge bundle of games from over 100 different creators, pointedly called A Good Bundle . It’s got a lot in it. Gone Home is in there, Catacomb Kids is in there, Proteus is there, The Novelist is there, Killing Time At Lightspeed is there. And a bunch of smaller games of note too: NORTH , Windosill , Raik , FJORDS , The Old Man Club , Depression Quest , Capsule jeepers. The asking price for the whole stash a potentially overwhelming 151 games is 20 United States dollars. There s another motive behind this videogame Voltron though. All of the proceeds are going to the American Civil Liberties Union and Planned Parenthood. …

- Have You Played The Beginner s Guide? - 18 August 2016
Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day of the year, perhaps for all time. The Beginners Guide, aka, the sad one. After the Stanley Parable warmed the innards of human animals across the world, the two creators went their separate ways. One of them resurfaced a couple of years later holding a free game with a superbly long name called Dr. Langeskov, The Tiger and The Terribly Cursed Emerald: A Whirlwind Heist . The other appeared with The Beginner s Guide. Both were good, but for completely different reasons. …
