     Kingdom Rush 5 dev calls for feedback as new DLC's Steam rating plummets

Tower defense games are a fantastic distillation of the strategy game format, so it's not too surprising that the likes of Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance, Bloons TD 6, Orcs Must Die, and Plants vs Zombies remain so popular. New Kingdom Rush 5 DLC Colossal Dwarfare, however, has landed to a surprisingly stark reception. Since its launch on Thursday January 30, the expansion pack has found itself with a dreaded 'mostly negative' rating. Just 32% of Steam reviews are positive, a far cry from the base game's excellent 86% score, and developer Ironside wants to know how it can change that.

     The Sims 4 has had ten years to beat The Sims 3, and it still falls short

2025 marks the 25th anniversary of The Sims, and EA has celebrated with gifts no one was expecting: re-releases for The Sims 1 and 2, and an update to The Sims 3. Now that the 16-year-old game is meant to run more consistently on modern PCs, it's the perfect time for newcomers and nostalgic veterans to boot up this classic. Do so, and one thing will quickly become clear – even after ten years of updates, The Sims 4 still can't match The Sims 3.

     Realistic FPS and Tarkov rival Exfil celebrates new update with brief free trial

The rise of tactical shooters such as Escape From Tarkov and Gray Zone Warfare feels like a direct response to the more arcade-style action of Call of Duty and even modern Battlefield. These more realistic, measured FPS games demand you take care at every turn, with realistic movement, damage, and ballistics ensuring the smartest, most well-coordinated players win out. Exfil goes one step further. There's no loot grind, perks, or 'gear fear' metagaming here - this is pure, infantry-led tactical combat. Launched into early access in December 2024, you can try Exfil free on Steam right now to celebrate the launch of its latest update, but you don't have long.

A Roblox character is digging out treasure in Permafrost

Valentine's Island is the centerpiece of the new Dig It update, and you can visit the POI to get up to 23 new diggable items.

The new location has been added as part of Update 1.6, which went live earlier on February 1. Players will be able to visit this POI and try their luck to find all the new items. To do so, they will have to discover it first, and it's a pretty easy thing to do.

Valentine's Island location in Dig It

The Valentine's Island location is pretty easy to reach from the spawn position. Of course, the name of the island won't be available in the database until you visit it for the first time. Just head straight with a boat, and you'll find the new POI.

\It's also very easy to spot the Valentine's Island. It's pretty big and has a pinkish glow that's easy to spot from afar. Once you reach the island, you'll be able to try and find the new items. To be more precise, the limited-time island can be found between Nookville and Badlands.

All Valentine's Island diggable items in Dig It

There are 23 new items to find at Valentine's Island, ranging across different rarities.

Item Rarity Preferred Magnet
Butterfly Ordinary Fossil
Croissant Ordinary Radiant
Heart Ordinary Regular
Lipstick Ordinary Fossil
Love Letter Ordinary Fossil
Rose Ordinary Fossil
Beret Rare Fossil
Chocolate Rare Regular
Cupid Bow Rare Regular
Moustache Rare
Pink Blob Rare
Smiling Heart Rare Urban
Dinner Table Epic
Heart Cake Epic Fossil
Lady Bug Epic
Suitcase Epic
Cupid Hobo Legendary
Gift of Enchants Legendary
Gift of Hearts Legendary
Plushie Legendary
Holy Scooter Legendary
Eiffel Tower Mythical Mythical
Gift of Skies Mythical Mythical

P.S. The items with spaces in the preferred magnet section will be filled with the relevant type once we have more information.

Do note that the Valentine's Island isn't a permanent location in Dig It. As such, you should make the most of it till it's available in the game, and look to complete the 100% collection as soon as possible.

Fisch Atlantean Storm bestiary

There are plenty of creatures you can catch in Fisch, but landing the secret fish is the hardest task to complete.

So far, there are six secret fish that can be caught inside the game, but they can prove to be stern tests. These six creatures are the hardest ones to catch, and they're not even part of the official bestiary. Let's take a look at how you can obtain them inside the game. Originally, there used to be three of them, but the recent Atlantic and Orcas update have doubled the numbers.

How to catch all six secret fish in Fisch

As of the latest Oil Rig/Orcas update, there are six fishes to catch.

Fish Type Location Preferred Bait Season Weather
Banana Fish Secret Ancient Isle None Summer Rain
Long Pike Secret Ocean Territory Insects Autumn, Spring Rain
Mustard Fish Secret Ocean Territory Sea Weed Summer Rain
Resin Secret Mushgrove Swamp None None None
Ancient Kraken Secret Atlantis (Kraken's Pool) Truffle Worm None Night
Ancient Orca Secret Ocean (Arch) Shark Head None None

The greatest difficulty of getting the secret fish are their spawn rate. They're not part of the official bestiary, which means that you're not supposed to find them inside the game. The Banana Fish, for example, is only meant for admins and partnered content creators. Yet, you might get lucky and land one with the correct setup.

Thankfully, you don't really need the very best rods to land them. You should fully focus on Season, Weather, and Bait, along with the locations. The odds of landing these fish are low to begin with. Without the preferred setup, it will be next to impossible to catch these creatures, irrespective of your rod and player levels.
