Busy week, this one. We have had an entire load of video games introduced over the previous few days, and there’ll likely be an entire lot extra this weekend. Most of them we will not play but. However as a normal rule, speaking about video games makes us wish to play video games, even when they’re utterly unrelated. Everybody has these moments the place they see the trailer for a brand new multiplayer hero shooter or some such factor, and for causes solely identified to themselves, they are saying, “sure, I actually should play extra Simpsons: Hit And Run.” So: here is what we’re all clicking on this weekend!
Alice Bee
is away.
Ed
I am hoping to hop right into a sport I am unable to discuss. It is troublesome not speaking about it, actually. In any other case, I am again watching Love Island aren’t I? Terrible, I do know (I adore it).
Edwin
is away.
Graham
is away.
James
I unexpectedly needed to abort enjoying the Flock demo earlier this week, and now have unfinished chicken adoption enterprise.
Jeremy
I will be trying out some Steam Subsequent Fest demos that I did not have time to cowl for the positioning this weekend. Extra particularly, I am actually interested in Hollowbody, a PS2-esque survival horror expertise crafted primarily by one developer that places the participant within the sneakers of a fixer navigating the ruins of a near-future ruined British metropolis. I like the look of it and the way if I squint I can vaguely think about that I am traversing down the shadowy corridors of my avenue, solely it is a model of my avenue infested with wriggly issues that wish to kill me. Then there’s the 8-hour demo of Enotria: The Final Tune, my candy summer-themed Italian Soulslike that’s at risk of getting completely forgotten as a consequence of the entire different Soulslikes popping out this yr. Edwin preferred the demo effectively sufficient, however different impressions paint the sport as kinda janky. The sport’s Twitter account even takes nice pains to level out that it is an “AA” sport quite than an “AAA” one…which implies it’s in fact the precise form of underdog sport I have to root for.

I’ve some massive tasks developing, so I will most likely play one thing comparatively chill this weekend. I’ll pattern a couple of extra Demos from Steam Subsequent Fest or proceed with my A Little To The Left playthrough. A Little To The Left is an lovable puzzle sport the place you assist organise muddle. Clearing away digital home goods is far more satisfying than really cleansing your individual home. It did very well upon preliminary launch in 2022, however as is commonplace for me, I missed the boat on it on the time.
Nic
Very a lot a nibbles platter of video games this weekend. Felvidek with purpose to hopefully write about it quickly – it jogs my memory of Concern and Starvation in quite a lot of methods. Extra Doom Everlasting. Some Elden Ring. Possibly some Grindstone, which I’ve not too long ago gotten again into. Apart from that, I am primarily simply going to be farting quite a bit. I’ve had the eating regimen of a fussy toddler with an alcohol drawback for per week now, so I am planning to get very into inexperienced smoothies once more.
Ollie
Like others within the treehouse, I will be enjoying a top-secret sport I am unable to discuss a lot about. And oh boy, am I excited. So excited that I’ll should periodically take breaks in an effort to play some Hades 2 to get better.
However you, reader expensive, what are you enjoying this weekend?
