The other seasons will bring other mobs, too. Everyone has different ways of handling these massive enemies and bosses and although you can read about them and read other people’s strategies, the best way to learn how to handle them is through experie
This time, Willie Nelson lends his legendary abilities to Cruel World , and you can hear this version while playing as John Marston (we warned you, spoilers) when he decides to leave his old ways behind him. Of course, this change of heart won’t last , but it’s a beautiful moment coupled with an equally-moving s
This list also showcases the sheer variety on offer for those consuming indie games. From nerve shredding Circadian rhythm horror games titles, existential puzzle games, divisive narrative experiences and boarder control simulators, this year has been marked by the diversity on s
You play as an astronaut stranded on the space station Theseus, a research facility studying a group of rocks that may or may not offer intelligent life called ‘The Watchers’. To navigate the space station, players must solve puzzles using the Swapper, a device that can replicate a person several times. It works in a similar fashion to Portal , but instead of creating portals, you are making clones that all move at exactly the same t
Another huge bonus is the fact that his crockpot can be taken anywhere. Unlike the regular crockpot in the game, Warly can pick up his portable crockpot and take it wherever he wants. So, if you find yourself away from your permanent camp for a while, you won’t go hun
Many of these games are jumping off points to get the community talking about bigger ideas, and for many, even if they don’t enjoy every game on this list, it will clarify their point of view about experimentation in the medium. That is exciting for those of us who have been consuming games for vast portions of our li
Plus, the rain during the spring can be a real drain on your sanity, so you’ll likely find yourself trying to manage your sanity more than in other seasons. Cooking various recipes is a good way to help manage your sanity, so you’ll need a crockpot. And, in order to keep your food fresher longer, you’ll need an ice
The nominations are in and the finalists have been officially selected for the 2013 Canadian Videogame Awards. This year, the fifth for the relatively young award ceremony, is quite a bit different. Reboot Communications and EP Media are moving the show this year from Vancouver FanExpo, where it’s traditionally been held, to Toronto but recently delayed the production to the fall where the 2013 awards will be announced alongside (but separately from) the 2014 awards as w
The 2014 show will include 2013 and 2014 made games to be awarded separately, based on the nomination year, in one ceremony. Information on 2014 nominations will be released in June while the votes for the 2013 winners must be submitted by April 21st. The award ceremony takes place November 21, 2014 at the Carlu in the heart of downtown Toro
Reus has players take charge of four huge elemental avatars, allowing you to terraform an earth and maximize its output to please the population. This is a god game that isn’t about imbuing the player with all the power of an omnipotent being. This is a game about how futile that power is in the face of human gr
Playing as Stanley, you find yourself one morning in your office job only to find everyone has vanished. All you have is a path ahead of you and a narrator in your head. Choosing whether to abide or rebel against the voice is up to you, but thanks to the game’s short story structure, you can complete a story line and hop right back in from the beginning compelling you try every possibil
There is a prevailing argument in the industry that horror games don’t sell, with Dead Space and Resident Evil ‘s failings in the market used as examples showing that the genre just can’t be profitable . Red Barrel showed earlier this year that that isn’t true. In the film world, horror films are rarely mega-hits but are often profitable due to their small budgets. Outlast proves that video games can work on a similar mo
God games are a genre that slowly died out over the last decade or so, but it was a genre defined by games like Black and White and Populus . It’s hard to find a good experience of late that allows you to control your earth and your population. If you long for such power once again, Reus is something you should consider giving a wh
Nothing sets the tone for a cowboy game quite like a banjo, but Mountain Banjo isn’t your typical hoedown, cheery and chipper square-dancing type song. A banjo has never sounded so cool or so dangerous as it has here, and as YouTube user HPNomad points out , it’s a fretless banjo played with the clawhammer technique. Not gonna’ lie, that just sounds c
The 2013 finalists for the Canadian Videogame Awards span seventeen categories and include 29 games, narrowed down from 75 nominated titles. To qualify titles, at least in part, must be developed in Canada. Assassin’s Creed IV: Black Flag leads the pack this year with an impressive 12 nominations. Last year’s show saw Far Cry 3 take him the most awards , including Game of The Y
