Labelled as a murder mystery, 'Debt Repayment RPG' The Good Life is somehow even more confusing than the description given by the developers. That said, if you persevere through the onboarding and tutorials, and punch ahead through the…

When it comes to adorable, relaxing games I can’t seem to get enough of them lately. I enjoy spending my evenings on the couch — not having to think too much — while Dann and I play video games together. Our latest adventures took place in…

The stages themselves look gorgeous, with an art style that’s a cross between Hilda’s muted colour palette and Scribblenauts’ animations. There’s a lot of life to them, with items that just make sense to see in a national park, whether…
