It might just be that this logic puzzler sticks its thumb out noticeably from the omnipresent gaggle of post-roguelite survivalyptic soulsbuilder decklikes, but I suspect it’s also down to the deeply satisfying bloopy twinkle that plays whenever you drop someone into a seat with your floating hand … Read more
I was completely hooked the first time I played Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
