by Lindsay
June 9, 2025
Indie/News

Musical adventure game There Are No Ghosts at the Grand announced

Give me a musical, narrative-driven adventure game and I’ll be quite pleased. Throw in renovating an old hotel using a weird gun, a spray-painting mechanic, and spooky ghosts, and I’ll be chomping at the bit to play… as I am when it comes to There Are No Ghosts at the Grand. Take on the role of Chris David, who unexpectedly…

Don't Nod/News

Don’t Nod is aiming for heightened emotions in Lost Records: Bloom & Rage, and considering its track record with narrative titles, I’d say it will push past the boundaries of the stories it has told in the past. The game will launch in two tapes (parts) in early 2025; Bloom…

I’m trying to keep my excitement about Life is Strange: Double Exposure in check fearing total disappointment. (More on that later.) The direct sequel to Life is Strange – remember, Life is Strange 2 is a completely different story – was announced at June’s Xbox Games Showcase. A reveal livestream…

Dear Villagers/News

It was only two weeks ago that there was an announcement made that cozy, semi-open world exploration adventure game Caravan SandWitch would be launching sometime this September, but at gamescom 2024 a specific date was announced via a new trailer (that also shows off gameplay for the first time). In…

Don't Nod/News

There aren’t enough adjectives that I could add to the word “excited” to describe my level of anticipation for Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. Lost Records is a new IP for Don’t Nod, and Bloom & Rage is the first game. It brings Don’t Nod back to its narrative adventure…

Here’s everything you need to know from today’s Life is Strange: Double Exposure Reveal Livestream

June 14, 2024
News/Square Enix

Don’t Nod has been adamant that Max Caulfield’s story end when Life is Strange ends, but Max Caulfield is no longer in Don’t Nod’s hands. That was clear with the Life is Strange comic series, which was supposed to start as a four-part limited miniseries but soon ballooned to 23…

Don’t Nod introduces four main characters from Lost Records: Bloom & Rage and releases a new ’90s-style trailer

April 30, 2024
Dontnod Entertainment/News

Rarely am I left speechless, but the reveal trailer for Lost Records: Bloom & Rage did just that. Very little was known about the upcoming Don’t Nod game at the time (December 2023) – so little that I had to put in a catch-up – but we did learn that…

The original Myst is an iconic narrative adventure exploration puzzle game released in 1993. Riven: The Sequel to Myst launched four years later. A remake of Myst came to us in 2020, so it only makes sense that a remake of Riven is delivered (again) four years later. Riven has…

Indie/News

I kind of love when I get excited for a game, but it takes so long to launch that I kind of forget about it. It makes the actual launch a happy surprise. It’s been ten years since Harold Halibut first came into existence, with the team building real-world sets…
