The new game from the makers of Botanicula and Chuchel is like 1984 meets the Keystone Kops, but in a way that actually works

Phonopolis, developed by Amanita Design, was released last week and has received positive early impressions. The game features straightforward puzzles that resemble interactive toys, with a notable sequence involving evasion during a parade. It is inspired by the works of Karel Čapek and George Orwell, showcasing themes of class division, surveillance, and punishment. The soundtrack by Tomáš Dvořák contrasts the game's harsh environment with a gentle, dreamy lullaby. The game is described as having overt thematic elements, making it feel heavier and less joyful than previous titles like Machinarium and Botanicula. Phonopolis is available for purchase on Steam, Epic, and GOG for .49/£18/€19.79, with a collector's edition and a demo also offered on Steam.

This Android gaming app might kill handheld PCs

GameNative allows users to play PC games on Android devices without an internet connection, supporting Steam titles, Epic Games Store, Good Old Games (GOG), and standalone game files. It features a known configs capability that optimizes game settings for better performance. The app's creator, Utkarsh Dalal, aims for GameNative to replace handheld PCs within two years, despite challenges related to compatibility with ARM-based chips. The Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5 processors promise significant enhancements, and the release of Turnip drivers in early 2026 has improved gaming experiences on these devices. GameNative is free and open-source, with a monetization strategy focused on partnerships with game stores. It has recently added support for the Pixel 10 family, which uses an Imagination PowerVR GPU. The app collects user feedback to refine game configurations and plans to improve compatibility and support for third-party launchers.

There’s a game coming out this year where you fight your Steam backlog, and it’s more dangerous the more you’ve spent

Many PC gamers struggle with a growing backlog of unplayed games due to the ease of accumulating titles from platforms like Steam and GOG. Some gamers feel pride in their backlog, while others feel guilt over neglected purchases. Games like Tex Murphy: The Pandora Directive can be enticing at low prices, but busy schedules often prevent players from actually playing them. For example, after purchasing Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous at full price, players may find themselves distracted by other games like Overwatch 2, leaving their intended gaming sessions unfulfilled. Game Quest: The Backlog Battler is available on Steam, highlighting the irony that players may buy it knowing it could also become part of their unplayed titles.
