Ballionaire is a pachinko roguelike where you build your board as you play

Ping ping ping A trend of gambling-inspired games has surfaced in the wake of poker-like deckbuilding roguelikeBalatro. It’s more straightforward than the chaos of that trailer makes out. You earn cash for each little bumper or bonkable doohickey the ball hits along the way. Some of these bumpers (called “triggers”) will have special features. It only gets wackier as you go from level to level, seeking bigger payouts to appease the gods....

Create cutesy fire hazards in socket management puzzler Plug It In

Who dogs the outlet? While some cosy tunes play in the background, naturally. Rather than, y’know, the dusty, back-creaking tedium of sorting an extension socket in real life. What was wrong with the first one? !

Deadlock is an adrenaline soaked successor to the brawls of Dota 2

Dota you want me, baby? Deadlockgives me the shakes. Valve’snot-so-secretthird-person MOBA shooter is a fiercely competitive game of push and pull through monster-peppered city streets. It is tactical, deep, instinctive, and an interesting work-in-progress. It elicits adrenaline almost as much as it forces murder economics down your piehole. I need to get as far away from it as possible. I won’t get swept away. Kill them to earn yet more souls and handy spell slots, then push on toward the enemy base....

Gone Home studio Fullbright are now making games about horrible toilet spiders

Now, imagine a faint scuttling behind the skirting boards. A rattling in the pipes. Was there a toilet in Gone Home’s autumnal mansion? I can’t recall, but you should probably steer clear. Fullbright’s games have always contained the suggestion of horror, of course. Fullbright’s subsequentTacomamakes that more overt, being set aboard a space station haunted by holograms. Could the giant spiders be a metaphor for something as well? I wouldn’t be surprised if the game’s B-movie stylings were another red herring....

Alan Wake 2 Lake House expansion trailer hints at Control 2 overlap, also features ghastly paint monsters

If you haven’t, you’ll find them woven into the base campaign. “Night Springs episodes were all about these kind of crazy ‘What If?’ With The Lake House, we wanted to again lean into thehorrorside of things.” The best comparison from Alan Wake 2’s main storyline is the Valhalla Nursing Home section, apparently. As for the plot connections to Control, Remedy suggest that Control character Dylan Faden may be involved. The new Painted monsters have a knack for getting behind you....

Archons doubles the chaos of Vampire Survivors by giving you two characters to control at once

Archons doesn’t have a go at hide its influences. Also, each character is independently controlled by one gamepad stick, likeBrothers: A Tale Of Two Sons. It sounds like a gimmick, and it is. But it also feels nicely put together. Best of all though, every single attack is synced up to the music. Goddamn, I love it when things are synced up to the music. It certainly requires a lot more active thought than the far simpler Vampire Survivors....
