At the Bluecreek apartments, Sara has more fun with puzzles, riddles, and looking for the map as they continue their juicy Pyramid Head analysis (we love death of the author over here!) and roots for Angela over James every step of the way. www.youtube.com/watch?v=miPp...

At the Woodside Apartments skulking around doing puzzles and picking up keys, Sara discusses Pyramid Head's status as an Internet Sexyman, the prevalence of how straight women are fascinated by male monsters, and the intersection of sexuality, misogyny, disableism, and horror. youtu.be/k4cN44nxiwg

Saga encounters an employee of a certain familiar agency, and her investigation takes her further into the mysterious and also pasty white side of her family. I, for one, would be scared. youtu.be/-dewrS19JRg

While investigating the Cult of the Tree, Saga meets some long, lost family members… which explains… maybe something about what’s going on here? It’s certainly interesting that one side of her family is white! youtu.be/8QYB6tIwU4g

Jumping back into a sceptical Saga’s shoes, we jump back into our investigation of Nightingale’s murder, now with information from Alan. We head to Watery, Washington, and Saga continues to find herself implicated in Alan’s story… youtu.be/Wps3B2gIoak

Game Assist 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ @gameassistyt.bsky.social · 13/08/2026

For the first time in any meaningful way, we hear the voice and see the perspective of Alice Wake. Will this cause any real self-reflection in Alan, and what does this mean for the player? We sure will see… youtu.be/8nO8lqZbaFU

Game Assist 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ @gameassistyt.bsky.social · 10/08/2026

Alan’s search for Alice is interrupted by the first episode of Night Springs - a delightful, campy diversion from the main story (or is it?) On tonight’s episodes, we step into the shoes of Rose, Alan Wake’s #1 fan (now with shotgun). youtu.be/Gofw-G-8YPE

Alan begins narrating his own story, introducing new game mechanics that revolve around the idea of “re-writing” reality. But in re-writing reality to escape his purgatory, does Alan spare any thought for who is affected by his creative decisions, or how? youtu.be/c3GFvwr1cSY

Game Assist 🇵🇸🏳️‍⚧️ @gameassistyt.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

The quest for Nightingale’s heart brings Saga’s path into contact with Alan’s: the author meets his protagonists (or a god, his creations)... what will this mean for the story, and for reality? youtu.be/Y_z08J9bP_c

Saga heads to Bright Falls, and we explore the town a little. Beyond the establishing murder mystery, things start getting a bit weird for Saga, personally… Why does Rose seem to know who she is...? youtu.be/s19LArkLhmQ

Back in October, Rockstar Games fired 34 employees for alleged gross misconduct. The severity of these firings could have spelled the end for a burgeoning union effort that was underway, but it didn't. In fact, the union is now *bigger* than it's ever been before. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ym4z...

Sooo... what do we think this Game Assist video is going to be about?

A book on a white table. The book is a paperback with a cover image that depicts a building or city of some kind obscured by shadow and fog, all in black and gray. The title reads, "Partisan Ruptures: Self-Management, Market Reform and the Spectre of Socialist Yugoslavia" by Gal Kirn.

WE STAND WITH WORKERS - OUR STRUGGLES ARE CONNECTED After a year of record high returns profiting from genocide, Microsoft announces 20% layoffs in Xbox. No Games for Genocide renews its call to boycott Xbox and divest from Microsoft & Xbox. Sign the pledge: nogamesforgenocide.com

Text in white and green against a green and white background. It reads:

"WE STAND WITH WORKERS - OUR STRUGGLES ARE CONNECTED.

After a year of record high returns profiting from genocide, Microsoft announces 20% layoffs in Xbox.

No Games for Genocide renews its call to boycott Xbox and divest from Microsoft & Xbox."

"Our struggles are connected. To maximise profits, Microsoft and Xbox maintain various partnerships with Israel, aiding and abetting their ongoing genocide in Gaza and oppression of the Palestinian people. Meanwhile, they make workers’ conditions ever more precarious to hoard wealth for themselves. The same institutions that are laying off workers to line bosses' pockets are providing the technology that Israel uses in its colonial regime of oppression to get richer.

We deserve a games industry by and for the people who labour to make games; we deserve a games industry that refuses to profit from the colonisation of Palestinians."

"OUR CALL TO ACTION:

1) Head to our website and sign our pledge at nogamesforgenocide.com.

2) Spread the word about the boycott and mobilise others to join.

3) Read more on our website about what you can do to divest from Xbox and Microsoft as a gamer, worker, journalist or content creator to build power together."

This time last year, Sara and Charlotte sat down to discuss an early Game Assist video essay about Life is Strange 2. Here's the full upload of the stream (minus tech issues!) six years on from the release of the video. youtu.be/ftUw0vYLxyM

The text reads 'Reflecting on institutional racism in Life Is Strange 2.' In the background, Sean and Daniel walk along the hard shoulder of a road, surrounded by trees.
