What we've been playing - fitness games, old classics, and Dungeons & Dragons
Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we've been playing over …
This week, we get sweaty in a new fitness game called Quell; we mull the ways in which Dungeons & Dragons combat is exciting but also frustrating; and Ian goes digging through the crates and revisits a classic. Blood Omen is a top-down 2D game, a bit like an emo Link to the Past, while Soul Reaver has that instantly recognisable PS1 3D look that the Tomb Raider series and, um, Duke Nukem Land of the Babes adopted (both of which are also available on the Evercade, I might add). Then again, we survived that moment because the DM - a real person don't forget - pivoted and had me make a soul-pact with a demon in order to save our party, which led to a unique piece of storytelling and made the game richer in terms of entertainment and drama.
