Really cool to see the Wales in Games YouTube channel tick over 100k views right at the end of the year - diolch yn fawr iawn!

I’m not sure if we can scrape past 400 subscribers before the year is out, but these little milestones are humbling. It’s been a pleasure making videos for you all!

Here's a short clip of @huw2k8.bsky.social talking about the two world records his next game #Slumbox has already achieved.

Can't wait to hear all that #Welsh music!

In #AssassinsCreed Valhalla, Eivor can collect tablets alluding to the ancient #Welsh Treasures of the Island of Britain.

Placing them in Myrddin's Cave grants access to King Arthur's legendary sword Excalibur, referred to by its original #Cymraeg name of Caledfwlch.

Lots of #Welsh references in #DarkSouls!

Gwyn's allusions to Gwyn ap Nudd, his children Gwynevere and Gwyndolin, plus other Welsh origin names in the shape of Lloyd and Llewellyn.

And not forgetting Welsh actor Matthew Morgan's Domhnall of Zena and his "Siwmae" greeting.

#NinoKuni 2 features a few #Welsh references, one of which is Lofty and his lovely south Walian dialect, played by Owain Arthur.

#Cymraeg is present for the location of Cwsg-y-Ddraig (The Sleeping Dragon), and we also have the gloriously Welsh "Proper Tidy" Ring and Pendant.

Here's a video companion piece for those that prefer the audio-visual approach.

Have you played any of these #Welsh content spooky themed games?

Hope it's been a safe and fun Halloween weekend, whatever you're doing!

The 2019 game #Observation stars #Welsh actress Kezia Burrows as main character Emma Fisher, from Cardiff, Wales.

A couple of other Welsh references appear, including the flag of #Wales, and one section of the station being named "Dechrau", the Welsh word for "beginning" or "start".

Plugging away at the #Welsh game developers list for the new WalesInGames.com website.

I'm reaching out to any I need extra details about, but if you haven't heard from me yet, feel free to drop me a message!

If you happen to know a Welsh dev missing from the list, please let me know too! ♥

Shoot 'em up @vampire.poncle.games features enemies based on #Welsh folk creature Mari Lwyd.

"Mari Lwyd" can mean "Grey Mare", but its possible Virgin Mary reference is reflected in Maronna's name that doubles as an Italian pun.

Maronna Meea continues the Welsh-Italian theme.

Perhaps one of the most well-known games with a #Welsh protagonist is Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag.

New rumours have surfaced again of the changes the supposed remake will feature.

Not sure if the RPG elements will make for a better game, but removing the modern day stuff might!

2010 puzzle-platformer Apple Jack's backstory sees the man with an apple for a head travelling from England to #Wales to rescue his dog from Mount #Snowdon.

Each level is named after a town, with many from the #Welsh counties of Clwyd and Gwynedd featuring in the final portions of the game.

Lovely comments on my videos recently that brought a smile to my face. Likes are nice but comments go such a long way and remind me it's worth the effort.

If you love someone's work, don't underestimate the power of a positive comment! It might make someone's day and give them the boost they need 😊

#Welsh references in #Fallout4 include an airship named Prydwen after King Arthur's legendary ship, helmed by Arthur Maxson.

Other characters have Welsh origin names, and Taffington's location is named after the River Taff in #Wales.
