It's an idea for Blue Prince DLC; set in an airport, where the player must create a path to the fabled Room 46 where missing luggage goes.

I quite liked what Eurogamer had for a time, where the only ratings were 'recommended', 'avoid', and the rest.
As it is, they've since switched to a five-star rating which works just as well (no half-scores either, or you may as well go to scores out of 10).

That was shortly followed by a "HOW much?!?!" from me when I learned how ludicrously inflated memory prices have become in the past few months.
A great video, however much it angered and depressed me.

I really loved the little vignettes on the long journey as the party got into various mini-adventures, and the campfire chats. Makes me fancy the idea of a whole game being a long, cozy road trip punctuated with engaging character moments and occasional mild peril.

I do think that the requirements for working in a bank should include 'must be able to add things up right'.

Finally got to play Old Skies over the new year, and thoroughly enjoyed it - definitely helped by Fia being such an interesting and well-written protagonist. All the great reviews have been well earned!
(And yes, the 'reluctant American accent' made me genuinely laugh out loud)

It most recently saved me from water spurting in my face when part of my wall-mounted shower fitting got slightly loose and was leaking. I brainfroze, holding the wrench around the nut, until I'd remembered this phrase.

I think my favourite scene in the whole series is when the ruddy-faced stepfather in The Speckled Band barges into 221B Baker St to threaten Holmes. Jeremy Brett makes the scene by peppering his dismissive response with laughter and half-second smiles in the face of a man ready to explode.

I watched the whole series on ITVX last year. Thanks to that, and this 'A-Z' video, I cannot say 'vividly' any other way now: www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4dH...

The most effective Fire Awareness training session I ever had was led by someone who showed a video of the Bradford City Stadium fire. That was a sobering morning.

Blue Prince has rightly had a lot of love from so many critics, but I'm particularly pleased to see it get praise from the @outsidexbox.bsky.social gang here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=zlCp...

As someone who has been struck with a properly sore throat in the past 24 hours, this stuff is great - it's fast-acting and effective. I'll also be using a combo of Lemsip Max and Supahoney.
