What we've been playing - Good manors and finger patterns


Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we've been playing over …

You're forever outrunning the depleting natural resources: hacking down forests and animals you'll struggle to replace, and pulling up rocks and ore from the ground that don't grow back. A few months ago I was invited to try a gong bath, an experience which essentially sees you laying on a yoga mat for an hour while someone sends soundwaves crashing over you, enveloping your ears in a rhythmic alternative to white noise. Its puzzles are straightforward enough to never be taxing, which I appreciate, and while I've already begun to forget some of its earlier brainteasers, Botany Manor itself - its relaxing spaces and sunny gardens - will live long in my memory, no yoga mats required.
