Warhammer Age Of Sigmar: Realms Of Ruin review: a decent RTS heavy on micromanagement
I feel like I can let a lot of you know whether you’d like Warhammer Age Of Sigmar: Realms Of Ruin with just a few words: it’s about micromanagement. Victory is dependent on rapidly issuing movement, attack and ability commands to several small squads of soldiers, and your units will pay a heavy price if your attention leaves them for more than a few moments.
If that’s not your thing, move along. If it is, Realms Of Ruin is a solid, button-down war ’em up and you should read on.
Amazon Games cut 180 jobs shortly after Amazon report massive profits
2023’s games industry jobapocalypse continues with news that Amazon Games are laying off 180 people. This includes the entirety of the Twitch service Crown Channel, plus its Game Growth division. According to Amazon themselves, it’s all with a view to refocussing on Prime Gaming, which serves up games to Amazon Prime subscribers.
Shadows of Doubt modding tools will let you build cities and write your own murder mysteries
Shadows of Doubt is the voxel-based 1980s detective sim in which the glass is always rain-slicked, the coffee as bitter as the human soul, and the whodunnits, procedurally generated. Hard-nosed private eye Rachel (RPS in peace) pronounced herself fascinated but a little stumped by it, back in April, while Graham described it as his “ideal game” in a post about the recent addition of infidelity cases and lost-and-found jobs, adding to my suspicions that Graham is some kind of jigsaw killer and that his news posts are actually ciphered confessions of his terrible crimes.
Well, these already viscous plots are about to thicken into a borderline-immobile soup of intrigue, for ColePowered Games are adding modding tools to the game. These will allow you to pen your own detective mysteries, and even alter the surrounding city to fit.
Logitech’s $19 K400 Plus keeb is the perfect upgrade for media PCs, Steam Decks and sim racing rigs
Sometimes, all you need is a wireless keyboard and touchpad mouse to get things done. Whether it’s selecting the next movie on your living room media PC, changing settings on your racing rig or getting your Steam Deck set up just the way you want it, having a convenient, all-in-one wireless option can be just the ticket.
Logitech’s K400 Plus is a popular model in this niche category, and normally retails for an affordable $28. Today though, it’s down to $19 on Amazon, a sweet 32% discount that makes it near impulse buy territory for anyone that has a PC for which a regular mouse and keyboard setup isn’t quite convenient.

Modders polish Metal Gear Solid’s PC Master Collection with ultrawide support, sharper textures and more

Alan Wake devs Remedy reboot “Vanguard” shooter as premium game due to the “risks” of free-to-play
Alan Wake and Control developers Remedy Entertainment have announced that their untitled co-op shooter, the artist formerly known as project Vanguard, will no longer be a free-to-play game – largely, it seems, because the free-to-play business is looking a bit dicey. The game has been given a new codename to celebrate: Kestrel. It’s still a co-op multiplayer affair, however.
The reboot follows an evaluation period during which Remedy and publisher Tencent discussed a proof-of-concept version of the game, as we reported last month. They’ve now kicked it back to the concept phase “due to uncertainties in creating a successful game [in] the rapidly changing free-to-play market and associated risks”. A few members of the old Vanguard development team have moved to other Remedy projects, while the core leadership and certain select developers carry on with Kestrel.
