Ludocene is launching Monday for early access backers and my picks as an expert are LOCKED IN. My focus leans more mystery/detective but I'm also all about queer, cozy, and experimental indies✨

Around 4 hours into Arco and loving it. The turn-based / real-time combat combo is fun, the story is a great twist on the classic Western, the guilt mechanic is haunting (literally) and just look at it✨️✨️
