Zlin City: Arch Moderna is a diorama city builder made with actual, physical models and based on a real Czech city

City builders, kind of by definition, tend to be quite large in form. You're constructing an entire city here after all, and all the complications that come with that. So how about a citybuilder that's going for something a bit smaller? Meet Zlin City: Arch Moderna, a city builder designed to look like you're making dioramas, made by scanning actual, physical models, inspired by the real Czech…

Citizen Sleeper creator Gareth Damian Martin's new game is something quite different: a first-person "fungalpunk" narrative role-playing game inspired by post-punk Britain, in which you play as a literal parasite, infecting and navigating the lives of people in Signet City.

Tomodachi Life: Wo Träume wahr werden - Update 1.0.2 behebt weitere Fehler

Tomodachi Life: Wo Träume wahr werden hat ein weiteres kleines Update erhalten und steht damit aktuell auf Version 1.0.2. Genau wie beim vorherigen Update Ende April gibt es auch dieses Mal keine großen Änderungen oder neue Inhalte, dafür mehrere kleinere behobene Probleme. Im Gegensatz zum letzten Patch haben wir dieses Mal allerdings konkretere Informationen darüber, was genau behoben…

"Everyone would hate you": Stardew Valley creator is "open" to adding adultery and NPC divorces, but he's against it "on a moral level"

The first thing I read this morning was a lifestyle headline about how humans simply aren't "built" for monogamy. The second thing I read was Eric "ConcernedApe" Barone toying with the idea of introducing adultery and, by extension, divorces to cosy life sim Stardew Valley. If the third thing I read this morning is, for example, a bus advert for Paramount show Caught in the Act, I will interpret…

Like fleshy, diaper-wearing cars, infants in The Sims 4 have been "tuned up", making them faster to feed and change, and it's easier to clean up their poop

I've never been into a pediatrician's office to confirm this, but I've always suspected that in the centre of the room there's a concrete trench beneath a metal lift. It just stands to reason that when an infant goes in for a check up, they're plonked down on the metal frame, raised up two or three feet before the doctor goes down into the trench to inspect the baby's fleshy chassis from below.…

What we've been playing - "Meanwhile, Lara Croft and Breaking Bad's Walter White have just had their first child"

What we've been playing - "Help me, someone, please, I have pets to feed"

Hello and welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little about the games we've been playing. This week, Mat remembers when games were just games and not world-shaking conquerers; Marie is impatient for her vampires to get it on; Bertie discovers depth in ridiculousless; and Dom politely calls for help.

Animal Crossing da Ubisoft cancelado depois de 3 anos em desenvolvimento

A vaga de cancelamentos na Ubisoft fez mais uma vítima, mas a notícia não veio (pelo menos para já) da própria empresa. Segundo um exclusivo do Insider Gaming, a gigante francesa cancelou internamente o projeto com o nome de código Alterra, um simulador social fortemente inspirado no sucesso da Nintendo, Animal Crossing.

Tomodachi Life: Wo Träume wahr werden im Test – An Nintendos schrägen Sharing-Regeln kommt kein Spaghettisaurier vorbei

Diese tägliche 15-Minuten-Sitcom ist wunderbar herzig und bringt häufig zum Lachen. Wie ein Ball, den man immer wieder ins Rollen bringen muss, macht sie jedoch nur so lange Spaß, wie ihr bereit seid, eure eigene Kreativität zu investieren. Gelegentliche Wiederholungen und Nintendos Sharing-Beschränkungen nerven.

Análisis Tomodachi Life: Una Vida de Ensueño - Creatividad... ¿sin límites?

Los videojuegos no tienen mucho sentido a veces. Si sois familiares con la sensación de tratar de explicarle a alguien que no juega mucho en qué consiste o cómo funciona uno de vuestros juegos favoritos, sabréis exactamente de lo que hablo: ciertas dinámicas, o conceptos, son difíciles de poner en palabras. Me he sentido un poco así, en las últimas semanas, tratando de explicar Tomodachi…

What we've been playing - "I'm playing with my balls again"

Hello and welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little about the games we've been playing. This week, everyone's playing the same games again. Bertie's probing Slay the Spire 2; Connor's getting frustrated with people in Marathon but not in Old School RuneScape; Kelsey's playing Pokémon Pokopia while also trying to 'ship Leon Kennedy and Lara Croft; and Dom's playing with their…

After blasting through its free Switch demo, Tomodachi Life's bizarro blend of The Sims and Animal Crossing is exactly the kind of weird I was hoping for

I'm sure it's just a coincidence, but the fact Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream's free Switch demo arrived on the 3DS' 15th anniversary earlier this week feels - to me at least - entirely fitting. Tomodachi Life is probably the 3DS game I think about most; not so much in the fond memory sense, but more like a particularly vivid cheese dream. On paper, Tomodachi Life is something like Animal…

Avance de Tomodachi Life: Una vida de ensueño

Para quienes no conozcan la saga Tomodachi - aunque llamarla así, en Occidente, es hacer un poquito la vista gorda: sólo hemos podido jugar una de sus dos entregas anteriores a esta - puede parecer que lo que se viene el próximo 16 de abril a ambas consolas de Nintendo es un lanzamiento menor. Un título pensado para los más pequeños, por un lado, o una simulación demasiado de nicho, por otro. Y…
