Just a quick observation: a fox is currently in my backyard, behaving rather strangely on the lawn. Luckily, I’m quite fond of foxes, and my garden’s condition isn’t a high priority. This has no relevance to gaming, I just thought I’d share this amusing sight.
So, let’s get to the main question: What games are occupying everyone’s time this weekend? We’ll start by sharing our picks, and then we encourage you to chime in with your own in the comments!
Jeremy
This weekend, I’m abstaining from video games. The task of finishing up our comprehensive guide to the challenging encounters in Wuchang: Fallen Feathers has left me depleted. My plans involve venturing outdoors, perhaps reading a comic – engaging in some restorative, non-digital activities. The healing animation speed in that game… let’s just say a faster healing animation would be a game changer (thankfully, the patch slated for the 11th is poised to significantly enhance the experience for newcomers).
Nic
Nic is likely out and about, showcasing his impressive beard, as usual.
James
I’m currently engrossed in a playthrough of 1000 Deaths. It offers a depth that goes beyond its initial quirky platformer impression. While it is indeed a unique platforming experience, I’m finding particular enjoyment in how the game revolves around shaping the destinies of its characters, rather than solely relying on precise platforming maneuvers.

My weekend, and the following week, will be consumed by extracurricular pursuits, so gaming is off the table. However, come Friday, I fully intend to dive headfirst into a game centered around one colossal, continuous escort quest.
Ollie
During my vacation, I dedicated a considerable amount of time to playing Satisfactory alongside my brother and roommate. The level of playful insults exchanged as we evaluated each other’s automated factories reached unprecedented heights. Beyond that, the trailer for CleanFall has captured my interest, and I intend to give it a try this weekend. I’ll be trying to survive long enough in its wild environment to build one of those enormous, laser-equipped engines.
Mark
As a wise person once asked: “All this from a slice of gabagool?” Yes. Although we didn’t obtain a review copy of Mafia: The Old Country in advance, rest assured that I now possess it and am actively immersing myself in the world of organized crime in early 20th-century Italy. So far, so good. I’m curious to see how my opinion evolves after playing for more than three hours.
And now, dear readers, what games will you be enjoying this weekend?…
