This Week in Gaming (Week 1)

In a couple of days, it'll be a new year, which will bring with it a wealth of new game releases, but before that, we have a couple of days left of this year and a few slow days or possibly weeks in the new year. This week's release includes knights with machineguns, bottle caps, also with guns, a futuristic cowboy, too many alien bugs and what appears to be a new take on the classic game RISK. See you in the new year.

SN2716057That Alice-forgot-to-take-her-pills game ..wow. I'm too intoxicated to play that.

So yeah, I had to scroll past a lot of 'games'..to find this one
store.steampowered.com/app/2277870/The_Midnight_Crimes/

Mixed reviews..so.
Design looks sooo much like A Wolf Among Us !

Studio did nothing good so the mixed review is not a surprise.

This time of the year, it's not easy to find anything that looks remotely interesting, although I try my best.

Things aren't gonna pick up again until the second half of January. And even then it's mostly just indie games and remasters until February. And then in February we're getting Civ 7, Kingdom Come 2, Avowed, and Assassin's Creed Shadows in the same week. :eek:

Well, that's usually how it is, nothing, nothing, nothing and then all at once.
