https://www.pcgamer.com/escape-from-tarkov-adds-ground-zero-a-dense-urban-area/
Extraction shooter Escape from Tarkov dropped a big new update this week, bringing a new urban area, new weapons, a new boss, and a rework of the shoreline area.

My new favorite idler is about these little guys who hit their heads against a rock

It's hard to argue with a game that sprays particles all over your screen, if you are me, and recently-released indie incremental idler The Gnorp Apologue sprays some particles right good. Starring little things called gnorps, it's about how they smash a rock and bits come off the rock, and then they use those bits to make stuff: Houses, buildings, hot air balloons, guns, bigger guns, rockets, helmets to use when they smash their heads against the rock—you get the drift.

Curious little turn-based medieval strategy game Rising Lords musters for a January release
https://www.pcgamer.com/curious-little-turn-based-medieval-strategy-game-rising-lords-musters-for-a-january-release/
Turn-based strategy game Rising Lords will release on January 18, 2024 after nearly three years in Early Access. The hybrid of PC turn-based strategy with more traditional board game and card game design focuses around strategically expanding a medieval fiefdom's economy while raising armies to defend yourself against—or conquer—your neighbors.

And that's it, until next time, I wish you a happy and gaming weekend and beyond!
