Frostpunk 2 Review

Reviews
ss 2d866745c23d9ec66a2c15f623ce2f943be350a0.1920x1080

There was not a game released yet that can challenge Anno in its propensity for balancing districts until the release of Frostpunk 2. Frostpunk 1 is about surviving, Frostpunk 2 is about thriving in the frozen wasteland. It’s a bit of a different take than the first game, which I’d compare to a more visual novel-esq experience. The entire city was contained within the original crater and, revisiting the city 30 years later, the original main character passes and you, the new main character as Steward, take over. Your task is to expand the city outside of the crater, establish a city council and make a decision to embrace or conquer the cold. Before being thrown into the mix, you visit a failed generator where you survive the first whiteout at a Dreadnaught. This tutorial serves as a smaller, easier experience before jumping into the main game. A Perfect City…

Valheim’s Broken Progression Mechanic

Editorials
about bg

Valheim, released in 2021, has a functionally broken progression system. The game’s difficulty ramps up dramatically after the swamp, causing players to focus either on early game content or rely on mods to fundamentally change the game. Valheim’s approach to the survival mechanic has made progression take an exhausting amount of time to reach the best parts of the game and its updates. Many players will reflect on their fondest memories resting between the meadows and the swamps, when the game is still simple and the gameplay loop is refreshing. The manual nature of everything works and the game is challenging and exciting, no matter the settings. Starting at the mountains things change. This comes from a Valheim multiplayer prespective, not so much a single player perspective. The Issues with Progression The biome progression within Valheim is meadows, dark forest, swamp, mountains, plains, mistlands, ashlands and then the as of…

Ark of Charon – How to Win

Guides
image 3 2

Ark of Charon has a very fun “Oxygen Not Included” style of controlling your characters by giving them generalized orders and they more or less use their AI to move around the map. You can prioritize and macromanage your entire fleet of golems in Ark of Charon to build a base on top of a moving world tree. The game has a sinister desire to punish overthinking it and overprepardness. Depending on the RNG of the maps you pull and how you use your wood, your room is nearly predetermined on how successful you’ll be. Let’s get into how to win. Wood is Finite You can grow trees, yes but this is difficult and you use your precious wood on farm tiles to grow them on the world tree. Think of your wood as an extremely limited resource. It’s only plentiful on some maps and other maps have almost none…

Survival Gaming Outdoors Camping Style

Editorials

In LEGO Fortnite, Valheim, Grounded, Ark and even the fluffy Palworld there is a consistent mechanic available: survival. This spring, if you’re a fan of survival gaming, consider doing something considerably more immersive: going camping outdoors. Very similar to the gaming counterparts, surviving in the wild comes with all of the mechanics you love from your favorite video games with the danger that exists in popular Isekai anime, manga and manhwa. Camping in our modern world is very accessible and affordable, with only a few required supplies and lots of places to explore. In this article we’ll look at how you can go from building a hut in Minecraft to actually thriving outdoors in the true wilderness. Camping – Is it right for you? Camping has a lot of safety requirements involved and some minimum mobility requirements that you’ll have to take into consideration. Take into account an inventory of…

Pixel Cafe Review

Reviews
Screenshot 2023 12 28 230055

Pixel Cafe has a smooth lo-fi vibe with some of the best music I’ve heard this year. Released early October, we finally got a chance to sit down with what can be considered revolutionary in its own genre. You’ve got gorgeous pixel-art style beats, a soundtrack that kicks off from the start and doesn’t stop and a hypnotic gameplay loop that’s as mediative or brow-sweating as you want it to be. Quick note: The developers have been active in updating the game. A mid-December 2023 update introduced difficulty modes, giving the game more depth from the challenging kitchen manager that it was to a zen like rhythm game to the challenging kitchen manager that many loved as is. Let’s dig into what separates this game from others. Running the Pixel Cafe The game starts off with a cup and a coffee machine and simple instructions. The game’s complexities slowly unveil…

LEGO Fortnite World Spawn Glitch

Guides
lego fortnite

If your world in LEGO Fortnite has had its spawn moved, there is currently nothing you can do to fix it within your world. Most guides will tell you to make a new world and give keys out and that’s very much true. You can just make a new world and that solves the glitch, but it also doesn’t mean it won’t come back or that EPIC won’t patch your world. There are a few ways to make the issue a bit easier. I’d only suggest the following if you’ve at least got a few hours into your world. Otherwise, it might be more fun to just restart. If you have aerial vehicles, it may be easier to just use those to retrieve your friends. Reach Far Out Friends The first question is what biome(s) are between you and your friends. Hot like the Desert and cold like the Frostlands…
