A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

Usually I’d be making this post from my main account, cod, but for some reason I’ve tried posting multiple times today and it hasn’t let me, it keeps giving me an error. So here we go! Weekly post from a different account this week. Hopefully next week I can go back to my main again.

I'm still neck-deep in solving the mysteries of Blue Prince. Hopefully it's permissible to talk about here as it's hardly the most patient of gaming I've done (I bought it on release day). It did have a release week 10% sale though so technically I didn't pay full price?

The game is absolutely great and it's extremely hard to talk about without spoilers, which would ruin your experience. It's a half-roguelite/half-puzzle game and it's so well made and so intricate. It will take you a little while to start peeling back the layers, but once you start getting into it you realise just how much depth there is under the surface.

If you have any interest in puzzles you should play this game. Like right now. It's cheap too, not even €30 full price. It'll probably be a GOTY candidate and it's definitely the best new game I've played in quite a while. Absolutely beautiful distinctive art style too, which meshes perfectly with the themes of the game.

I'm right there with ya! I didn't even know it was a thing until I just happened to be looking through the PS Plus catalog for something new on release day. Such a crazy coincidence.

Absolutely beautiful, wonderful game!

The hidden depths and secrets are just completely insane. I'm loving piecing together the narrative, but every time I think I have seen (though not completed!) all the puzzles a new hidden layer opens up with new objectives and challenges.

Amazing game!
