Crafting a world that begs to be explored is a tricky thing to do, especially when the world is kind of sucky, doubly so when it’s woven mostly through words with only supplementary imagery to provide a broader context. Yet Citizen Sleeper’s is one I’m often thinking about because amongst all the grand sci-fi concepts is a grounded sense of reality that you’ll always find in the best of the cyberpunk genre. And here I am, a year on from the second game’s release, tempted to return once more, but this time in a form based on its tabletop origins.
There are not enough games in the world where it feels like the initial concept was born from the thought, “wouldn’t it be funny if…” I’m no fool, I know this is because developing a video game is akin to getting hit by a car, miraculously coming away from it unscathed, only to be hit by six more cars as you continue your journey. In any case, this is still how I would like to imagine Trust Me, I Nailed It was born, a turn-based strategy game where you have to make cool video edits of some warrior to make him seem like a monster slaying legend.

You know, I’m surprised that EA has never made a Sims reality show where contestants have to act out odd, Simish challenges on a Truman Show-esque production lot, given how much the games themselves feel like simulators for the trashiest (said lovingly) TV show genre. In the meantime, while it isn’t at all themed reality shows, The Sims 4’s next expansion, Royalty & Legacy, seems like a perfect fit for a fictitious one of your own making.
RuneScape: Dragonwilds just held its 2026 summit this week, and with it came a bevy of details about future updates and plans for the survival game. Oh what joy for you scaper or runes! The main thing that got a look-in was the game’s next big update, Dowdun Reach: Madness of Zamorak, which certainly has an air of someone looking at any section of a given Dark Souls and thinking “yeah, I want a fortress like that.”
Resin-dent Evil?
For past me, the idea of 3D printing — just the mention of it, the sound of the words — always conjured up images of stuff like Tom Cruise and his wee red balls in Minority Report.
I know, the ‘precog’ machine in that particular movie wasn’t really a 3D printer, and Tom’s wee red balls seemed to be made of some sort of weird wood rather than filament, but it was the same sort of magic inside my simple mind, and the first time I’d considered a machine that could create a fully 3D object in this way. So the two are forever connected, I’m afraid.
