Being a games critic is fun, sure. Sometimes, you get to connect with game developers, give and receive feedback, and if all goes well, spark a conversation. But others, your negative opinion may be taken too seriously, inciting backlash. I want to talk about it.

Encouraging to see the game industry hardship fund reach its goal and give laid-off devs a much-needed respite.

I concur! I remember mulling over how you'd do a cozy soulslike (as one who gets TERRIFIED of them myself 😬), so am I glad Andres found this! While this still has some edge, I found myself SUCKED IN! Bravo to the dev team on this one!!

Every action in The Mermaid Mask is handled with painstaking detail. Each item you ask the suspects about will have a witty answer to. Not a single line is wasted. It's a joy to both witness the mystery and artistry in motion.
