Outer Wilds is among the best games of 2019. Mobius Digital’s time-bending tale is a must-play if only to see that stellar ending. However, a new fan project is aiming to bring the game into a brand new dimension. NomaiVR is a fan mod that lets you step into the shoes of a Hearthian and

This year has been an odd year for gaming, hasn’t it? We may not have followed a boy and his godly father or became a cowboy in one of the most realized worlds in a video game, but 2019 was filled with bangers, some of which I will remember for years to come. With it

I saw a bunch of cool games at PAX East, but most of them didn’t match up regarding both quality and intrigue when compared to what I saw from publisher Annapurna Interactive.
