The more I play the more annoyed I get by the lack of camera control, how superficial your interactions with what look like really interesting and intricate areas are and just the feeling of moving around in the world. The regular introduction of new mechanics has just about kept me onside

I’m (I think) about 2/3rds of the way through Keeper and I don’t really know how I feel about it. It’s gorgeous and has a very distinctive art style and the non-verbal storytelling is very impressive… but it’s just not a huge amount of fun to actually play, mechanically

I had it on Vita and it was fantastic. The controls were a bit different but at the time, better than PS2 performance on that gorgeous screen more than made up for it

We played our first game of SETI last night.

Really enjoyable, kinda feels like peak Eurogame with elements of Brass, Terraforming Mars and Terra Mystica. Extremely well designed and lots of variety. Visually stunning. Looking forward to repeat plays #boardgames

There was a 15 year period where the back page was just substituting the word ‘you’ for ‘Roo’ when writing about Wayne Rooney

Probably my greatest professional achievement is that two throwaway derisory phrases of mine have been fully embraced by colleagues and have taken on a life of their own.

“Big number must go up”

“Vibes-driven decision making”

Time for my bi-annual reminder the Between The Buried and Me and Bring Me The Horizon are different bands

(The new BTBAM album is pretty good)

Probably my greatest achievement as as parent is that when I say “potatoes” to my kids, they reply with “Boil ‘em, mash ‘em, stick ‘em in a stew”.

The dodgy gift shop on Princes St story is such a great piece of investigative journalism. I’m so glad that my subscription to @edinburghminute.bsky.social (and other subscribing to hyperlocal media in other cities) makes this sort of work possible

First time playing a friend’s copy of Inis tonight.

I absolutely loved it, and the Irish mythology theme and glorious Jim Fitzpatrick artwork were the icing on the cake. I’ve got my own big box edition arriving hopefully in a few weeks! #boardgames
