It’s easy to lose moments watching the ambience of the gameboard change in the demo for haunted house boardgame RPG The Horror At Highrook. The colours alter from daytime greyness through winey shades of sunset into pale lavender moonlight. There are little details to notice and zoom on: a fleeting embroidery of rain, the seep of flames in the kitchen and guest rooms, a fidgeting of moths in the archives. Ah, nice. The last time I felt so beguiled by a view of a house was while looking out from the hamlet of Darkest Dungeon. Read more View the full article

As an RPG, players are likely curious to know how much their choices will matter in Avowed. Any game that includes dialogue trees and makes conversation an active part of the game likely has at least some element of choice to it. Still, despite being able to choose what the protagonist says, it doesn’t always mean that the game at large will be affected by those choices. It can be understandably frustrating to learn partway through a game, after carefully weighing dialogue options, that they ultimately don’t matter as much as they initially seem.

The base Shooting (81) is really low, and Whipped Cross+ can hardly be considered as a meta. If you have already used him the TOTY Blueprint evolution, it makes little sense to complete this SBC. The recently-released Andrea Pirlo Future Stars Icon SBC and Fernando Torres Future Stars Icon SBCs have far better value proposition in comparison.

I've been kind of jazzed for Hell Is Us since it was announced in 2022, in large part because the project is being headed up by Jonathan Jacques-Belletête—I loved his work as art director on Deus Ex: Human Revolution. (Yes, I am an unrepentant fan of the piss filter.) But then it fell off the radar for a couple years and I forgot about it until a surprise appearance in Sony's 2024 State of Play showcase, with a 2025 release target. And now, thanks to the most recent State of Play, we have a full-on release date: Hell Is Us will be out on September 4... Read more.View the full article
Obsidian Entertainment's latest venture is Avowed, and even though it's a first- and third-person RPG, the closest, most relevant comparison that can be drawn regarding map size is to Larian Studios' isometric Baldur's Gate 3. Many eager Obsidian and Pillars of Eternity fans will be jumping into Avowed during its early access – Avowed shares its setting with Pillars – but many others may be curious about the game's scale before committing to purchasing a full-price game. Avowed's availability on Xbox Game Pass will make it easy for many to try as well, but the game still interestingly shirks its genre's most common map design elements. View the full article
