Nighthawks" by @richardcobbett.bsky.social and published by @wadjeteyegames.com is a lot more than a simple click-to-progress visual novel. Only five hours in and I'm totally mesmerized by its story and eclectic cast.

"Crowns and Pawns: Kingdom of Deceit" by Tag of Joy was a great adventure! Now we wait for the release of the sequel, hopefully of the same quality, but perhaps a bit longer ;) I for one have already wishlisted "Crowns and Pawns: Amber Road"!

Its brutally difficult old-school design will feel like “udder” madness to most, but if you have a thirst for impossible puzzles, "Lost on Cow Island" may just charm you with its beautiful indie production values.

I really liked "Thimbleweed Park", except for the ending; it nullified everything that happened before in the game. But I really enjoyed playing through it, and I was extremely happy - and very nervous - to have @davidbfox.com sign the box last year! So I'm looking forward to this new installment!
