     This Warcraft 3 inspired RTS game is like building castles with Lego

Castles have always been a great place to hold out against the hordes, and that's as true in the likes of Lord of the Rings as it was in real-life human history, and even in the best strategy games such as Warcraft 3. Cataclismo is a new RTS game all about the beauty and function of great castle design, and PCGamesN spoke to Digital Sun's game design director Vicent Ramírez Luzón at GDC about the game and the design inspirations of the team.

     Become a Jet Set Radio Uber Eats rider in this upcoming Steam indie

Parcel Corps is what happens when Uber Eats and Jet Set Radio get mashed together into their own, vibrant indie game. You're skidding, grinding, and doing tricks on a free-flowing bicycle across a colorful cityscape while trying to carve out the biggest piece of the pie for your bicycle courier business. You've just got the competition and the newly arrived crude oil CEO Rich Villainé to contend with, that's all. After the incredibly slick gameplay and style of Parcel Corps caught our eye, we decided to go hands-on and interview some of the team from Billy Goat Entertainment while at GDC in San Francisco.

     Into The Breach and Persona fuse into ultra stylish new tactical RPG

Blending the ineffable style of the Shin Megami Tensei and Persona games with their 'students fighting demons' aesthetic, and the satisfying turn-based tactical combat of Into the Breach, Final Fantasy Tactics, Fire Emblem, and even the recent Like a Dragon games, Demonschool is one of the slickest and most stylish RPGs set to hit Steam in 2024. Ahead of the game's launch, PCGamesN spoke to Brandon Sheffield, creative director at developer Necrosoft Games, about the team's influences and how it's working to make Demonschool approachable for players of all experience levels.

     This 2D minimalist soulslike perfectly understands why the genre works

Since Dark Souls exploded, adding a whole new chapter to the RPG playbook in 2011, soulslikes have been a dime a dozen. Every man and his dog has taken a swing at the formula - where the game world's friction goes against the player any way it can, with no care for how they'll react - and quite a few games have done a decent job. Lords of the Fallen, Nioh, and Lies of P are just some of the bigger examples. But when we talk about soulslikes, we're almost always looking at them through a lens of third-person action roleplaying games. So what would happen if we removed an entire dimension from the genre: how would it play, and would it even work? This is a question Void Sols wants to answer, and it's the most unique spin on soulslikes I've ever played.

Dragon's Dogma 2 is seemingly a superb game, when it's not buggy or surprising its players with microtransactions.

CD Projekt Red are no stranger to releasing buggy games, but they're less keen on microtransactions - at least for singleplayer games. In an interview with a Polish investor site, CDPR's chief financial officer Piotr Nielubowicz said that they "do not see a place for microtransactions in the case of singleplayer games", but they wouldn't rule it out for multiplayer.

The Oculus Quest launched back in 2019, just five years ago, but come May new apps released in the Quest Store won't be playable on the Quest 1. This isn't because the Quest 1 isn't powerful enough to play them anymore, but because developers will no longer be able to upload them and players won't be able to see them.

It's part of the planned obsolescence of the Quest 1 which Meta announced last year.

I still think of Rain World as the beautiful, brutally hard game about accidentally going down tunnels butt-first and being crushed to death by weather, but it's grown and expanded a lot since its release almost seven years ago. It's about to grow again with a new DLC: The Watcher.

death trick double blind review header

What's better than a murder mystery set in the allure of a 1940s circus? Two murder mysteries! Or, to be more precise, a single murder and two investigators with access to different clues, testimonies, and locations. In its seven-hour playtime, Death Trick: Double Blind presents an intriguing story of magic, jealousy, and family.

The story of Death Trick: Double Blind follows Jackie (a magician) and Jones (a detective), who drop by a traveling circus for different reasons and at different times. The magician and ringmaster of this circus, Hattie, just died. It's up to Jackie and Jones to figure out just who killed her. However, there's a catch. They only have until seven o'clock to find the culprit, as Jackie (Hattie's replacement) has to go on stage at seven, and the circus will be leaving right after, meaning that Jones won't get the chance to investigate any further.

The game allows you to perform a limited amount of actions per hour. You can go around the circus to ask people about themselves and the case, as well as search for clues. Some characters are not available at certain hours. When that happens, you have no choice but to collect clues from other circus workers as you wait. Because Jackie is a replacement magician and Jones is a private eye, they'll be able to hear different testimonies from everyone as well as collect different pieces of evidence. Another thing about the suspects is that they lie or omit details. If you have enough evidence in your collection, you can point out contradictions between them to gain further insight from the suspects. It plays in quite a similar way to Ace Attorney Investigations: Miles Edgeworth, but without the "battles" and goofiness.

This play style actually makes the case very easy to solve. I figured out the culprit by 2 PM in-game thanks to the UI rather than my own deductions. However, the mystery of why and how the culprit committed the murder kept it from becoming monotonous. As mentioned earlier, you only have a certain number of actions per hour. You can increase this after completing tasks, though. While this is very helpful for the early stage of the game as you're getting your feet underneath you, it becomes a bit tedious later on. Once you max out your AP, you'll have more than enough to figure out all the mysteries in the circus. After that, you can only aimlessly wander around and ask about random things to make time progress. I wished that there was some sort of button to let me skip forward in time.

death trick double blind characters

In saying that though, I did enjoy talking to everyone. Though we only get to know the characters for a little while, I found myself becoming genuinely invested in their lives, histories, and personalities. Considering that two people did virtually all the creative work in the game, I was very impressed by the writing and art. If there's a sequel with these characters, I would jump at the chance to play it. Though short, Death Trick: Double Blind was like any performance worth its salt: sweet, riveting, and unforgettable. 

Death Trick: Double Blind is readily available on the Windows PC and Nintendo Switch.
