Bluey’s Quest for the Gold Pen Review – A Simple Adventure That Younger Players Will Love | The Outerhaven

Licensed kids games usually don’t have the best reputation, especially when they’re tied to massively popular shows. More often than not, they feel rushed out the door to cash in on the brand recognition and little else. Thankfully, Bluey’s Quest for The Gold Pen manages to avoid most of those pitfalls by leaning heavily into the same charm and imagination that made Bluey such a beloved series in the first place. While this is very much a game designed for younger players, I’d be lying if I said...

Editorial: Plantation Simulator Is the Kind of Game the Industry Should Reject | The Outerhaven

There are controversial games, and then there are games that exist purely to indulge in cruelty. A game that was recently brought to my attention, Plantation Simulator, falls squarely into the latter category, and the more I looked at it, the more I kept asking myself how something like this even made it this far. This piece of crap was released onto Steam on May 12, 2026, and it’s still available to be purchased. I’m not even going to leave a link to the title, but I’m sure you can find it for...

The Original Metro 2033 And Metro: Last Light Complete Edition Now Available On GOG | The Outerhaven

This is one of those preservation wins that PC gaming needs more of. Following the reveal of Metro 2039, the original 2010 version of Metro 2033 and the 2013 version of Metro: Last Light Complete Edition are now available on GOG. That matters because the original versions were delisted from Steam years ago after the Redux versions arrived. Players who already owned them can still access them, but new players were forced to skip out on the original experiences. And while the Redux versions modern...

Tell me if this has ever happened to you: you’re in the middle of gaming and your wireless headset, mouse, or keyboard suddenly dies because you forgot to charge it. Next thing you know, you’re falling off a cliff, running off the road, losing a match, or scrambling to finish an important email while hunting for a cable. Yeah, that was me, and I hated it.
