It's weird to not only have lived through an information revolution but also now living through its undoing, all within less than a generation.
Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

Like its predecessor Long Live the Queen, Galaxy Princess Zorana is a Princess Maker style game that demands your attention (and multiple playthroughs) if you want to succeed. www.siliconera.com/review-galax...
Review: Galaxy Princess Zorana Is a Worthy Heir to Long Live the Queen
Galaxy Princess Zorana is a worthy successor to Long Live the Queen and a stat-management sim Princess Maker fans shouldn’t ignore.

I'm so very delighted about this! I've been really into Zombies, Run! this year and it's had a massive impact on my physical and mental health. Turns out the brilliant story is exactly what I need for momentum. I'm not allowed to run again yet, but am so excited about ZR's future when I can!
just incredibly thrilled to announce that after months and months of uncertainty over the future of the game, and several I have bought Zombies, Run!, the game I co-created and have been making for the past 12 years:

I love Chinese & Taiwanese Wuxia RPGs, not only for the cool martial arts setting but also for playing differently from Western & Japanese RPGs.
I often get asked for recommendations. I had a big thread on Twitter, so here's a new one!
