“I often think how unfairly life’s good fortune is sometimes distributed. Why has fate given you two such nice children (excluding Anatole, your youngest, I don’t like him),” she put in peremptorily, raising her eyebrows, “such lovely children? And you really value them less than anyone and are therefore unworthy of them.”
		And she smiled her rapturous smile.”

Save 10% on The House of Hikmah on Steam The House of Hikmah is a fully voice-acted, narrative-driven 3D adventure game exploring grief, legacy and the search for answers after profound loss. Solve puzzles, encounter historical scholars of the Islamic Golden Age, and uncover timeless lessons in a beautifully imagined House of Wisdom.

If you've played the House of Hikmah, the beautiful Arab-made narrative platformer about the grief of losing a parent - please do leave a review. It's really hard to make bespoke human games like this in 2026, and the team really gave it their all.

I think it's a missed opportunity that wrestling games pretend it's a real sport instead of letting you create wrestling storylines to please the audience. Like The Movies with wrestlers.

Hey if you still have an Angelfire or Tripod site, or if you like one, now is the time to back it up, like, urgently

a book with 'great titties' written on the cover turns out to be full of teeth and mauls a man.
In some ways, though, you want a little danger in your literature.

Been rewatching Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles (2008-9) and it's interesting from a 2026 perspective to watch a show where the premise is just "let's go find everyone making AI and assassinate them"

In a similar vein, bring back developers making their own music for the games. The GTA 1-3 radio stations were full of absolute bangers.

bring back when games were voice acted by the developers! i don’t want good voice acting anymore. give me the stuff someone had to power through reading, and it’s obvious whoever is being recorded is doing it as a last resort.
