my latest "cutscenes" column is a conversation with @mrsambarlow.bsky.social and @nataliewatson.bsky.social that we recorded back in january, about FMV games, and about full-motion video as moment and medium, from DRAGON'S LAIR to PHANTASMAGORIA to IMMORTALITY mubi.com/en/notebook/...

There's a round of GOTY discussion going around, and I realized that a lot of my favourite games this year have been absolute Sicko Picks.

So here's a few games I've loved so far in 2025, starting with a mild one: Babushka's Glitch Dungeon. A scrunkly lil' puzzle-metroidvania with so many fun verbs

Oh hello dearie.. Babushka needs to clean up her big magical cellar. Use hag magic, or just hit stuff with your broom.
