A Tomb Raider Retrospective

Indie Game: Vessel

by Dan Salvucci under PLAY on Apr 12th

Just recently jumped into a new indie game I saw on steam called Vessel. You play the role of Arkwright the inventor of liquid based automatons. The game progresses as a puzzle based game where you need to solve problems caused by your inventions most of the time. The world is very steampunk in design.

Geek Dad Game Review: Playmobil ‘Alarm’ and ‘Construction’ Value Pack

by Ryan Thomason under PLAY on Nov 23rd

As a geek dad, I’m working a little early on turning my three year old into a proficient gamer. It’s slow going, since he can only really do so much when it comes to playing games. We played Torchlight for the longest time, but my wife wasn’t 100% behind us playing that. So, one day when I got home from work, my son came running up to me, telling me he had a surprise for me. Surprised I was, since I didn’t...

We will never know, EA is silly like that.
