Episode of Opal Hunters is breaking from the usual discussions of how likely a ceiling is to collapse to have someone peer down a hole and explain that "all those dark bits are rat carcasses, and that one rat there has been feasting on his mates"

The temperature is getting colder here in London, so this is an excellent time to remind you that every hour, the monster goes out to the weather station in London to check the temperature and sets the price for A Good Snowman is Hard to Build to match the weather.

All’s Fair is terrible in terms of dialogue, plot, acting, characterisation, styling, morality, kink-shaming, feminism, model boats, kissing, candle placement, and the law, but it does at least take a strong stance on how gloves need to make a comeback

I’m hooked on this game!! The puzzles are challenging, it feels great to play, it’s good spooky vibes for Halloween, and the music and sound design is top notch
Spooky Express has just launched into Halloween and it's the perfect cozy-spooky puzzler for the long nights.
Take charge of the Spooky Express; the only rail service willing to carry the undead passengers of deepest, darkest Trainsylvania.
