600 words is nowhere near enough for the audacious, frequently brilliant Penguin Colony. But I hope there's enough here to pique your interest: brave the howling Antarctic, I say, and bear witness to spectacular cosmic horror — & Nazis eating one another alive. www.theguardian.com/games/2026/o...

Roman Sands RE:Build is out. After so many years, you can finally play our labour of love. It's deranged, it goes SO MANY PLACES, it probably shouldn't exist, and I've no idea if you're going to like it or not but that ain't the point. Roman Sands RE:Build. store.steampowered.com/app/2231460/...
