Amazon Luna Games with Prime – November 2026

Let’s get started so I can get back to playing Football Manager 27. November’s Prime/Luna (still hate the name) has been announced, and I’d argue that it isn’t terrible this month. However, it is the time of sports releases, so as part…

Flotsam and Chants of Sennaar are free on Epic

Remember, remember, yesterday was the 5th of November, celebrating resistance, revolution, and FOX “News” broadcast weather during election night coverage. Monday, apparently Gears of War is still a thing, and that’s bad for the industry. Tuesday, news is drier than a nun…

SNW “Once La’an A Time” – Review

Fairies, a princess, and dopplegängers – it is like Pride but less interesting. Returning for only her second episode of Strange New Worlds following various Walking Dead projects, Reservation Dogs, Nancy Drew, and Heathers, we’ve got Sydney Freeland. Freeland previously directed “The…

Football Manager 27 – First Impressions

I was about to be prosaic about the state of Football Manager, but despite it now being Tuesday, it really is a beautiful Sunday. Aside from doing The Slosh since Sunday, I’ve also been like most of you and playing far too…

Death at Fleming Manor (PC) – Review

SNW “Orders of Magnitude” – Review

Do Henry’s ends justify the means? Oh fun, we have a pair who made one of my most hated episodes of last season – I wonder how this goes. Directed by Sharon Lewis, you may remember her from “What Is Starfleet?” Since…

Witchbrook gets 2027 release date

Finally, a witchy school thing that isn’t covered in astroturfing (with an E) or whatever 3G is. For what feels like a lifetime now, many of us have had Chucklefish and Robtotality’s Witchbrook on wishlists, some (myself) because pretty games are my…

7 save ideas for Football Manager 27

Well, tomorrow is finally the day. Football Manager 27 releases into Advance Access for free between October 29th and November 3rd, at which point you can only continue playing if you pre-order. I am beyond excited to get hands-on, especially with all…

Sker Ritual and Home are free on Epic

Monday, Gothic/fantasy themed cleaning up game Cluttermancer got a release date, meanwhile, apparently everyone still thinks this Backrooms thing is fun, and Kingmakers is still delayed. Tuesday, Coral Island gets a Switch 2 release window, and There are No Ghosts at the…
