The latest Chinese PC gaming hit is an indie game that spent the last 8 years growing into something you’ve never played before

The Scroll of Taiwu is a Chinese indie game that debuted in early access on Steam in 2018 and has recently reached its 1.0 release after eight years of development. It offers an immersive experience rooted in Chinese mythology, contrasting with the fast-paced action of many contemporary games. The game features an expansive open world where players can hone martial arts skills, manage towns, and navigate conflicts. Despite its popularity among Chinese gamers, the lack of English localization has limited its reach, but the recent full release includes ongoing English translation efforts. The game has over 5 million words in its script, making complete translation challenging. The game's publishing advisor, Leye "Yager" Yu, has invested over 1,200 hours into it and believes in its potential to attract a broader audience. The developers are focused on improving localization and addressing bugs post-launch, while Yager plans to promote the game through collaborations and word-of-mouth.

Carcass Clad is less story-heavy than Mouthwashing, but ‘a lot of thought’ has gone into it: ‘We haven’t discovered how much we can push it’

Developer Wrong Organ is set to unveil their latest project, Carcass Clad, a roguelike co-op tank simulation game, following their previous success with the narrative horror game, Mouthwashing.

Developer Jeffrey Tomec stated that while scripted narrative elements are not the focus, storytelling and worldbuilding remain integral to the design. The core idea of Carcass Clad revolves around the tank, with an emphasis on evoking emotional responses from players. Each game element is crafted to enhance the player experience, connecting them with the environment and mechanics. The reveal trailer has garnered attention, suggesting a fresh take on cooperative gameplay and immersive world design.

Netflix has finally figured out how to get viewers off their phones with its newest horror game, but it doesn’t quite stick the landing

Point-and-click horror games face challenges in maintaining player agency due to predetermined paths, especially when using smartphones for interaction. Netflix's game Unhinged, created by Zach Cregger and David Fincher, allows players to use their phones as the protagonist Ava's device while she seeks help from her friend Claire and avoids a pursuer. The game lasts about 30 minutes and features immersive but occasionally frustrating gameplay due to distractions from notifications and the smartphone's role in executing quick-time events. The atmosphere is eerie, and the performances by Zoë Kravitz as Ava, Sadie Sink as Claire, and Troy Baker as the antagonist enhance the experience. Unhinged offers a glimpse into interactive storytelling, despite its limitations.
