One thing about Elden Ring's open world leaves me a bit confused
My level-senses are frazzled
Elden Ring is on my mind. When I go to bed and I close my eyes, I see giant crabs clack about. When I see a horse in a field, I think of Torrent the spectral steed. I consider laughing at the end of all my sentences. So yeah, to say my time with the closed network test was infectious is an understatement. But there’s …

Obra Dinn fans should also check out The Devil In The Dark Water
I've been thinking a lot about video game recommendations recently.

Conway: Disappearance At Dahlia View review: a classic locked room mystery
One nosy pensioner, please
The key to a good mystery, in my opinion, is narrative constraint. When the rules of a mystery - what the investigator can and cannot do, who and what was where and when - are laid out clearly for the audience, working within those limitations to puzzle out the case (a la any book by Agatha Christie, the who-dun-it queen) becomes irresistible.
