Nick Cage and FKA Twigs in a horror take on the Jesus origin story was not on my 2025 bingo card. Can't wait for the rest of the BEU releases (bible extended universe)

we love to see it

Lauren ‘Morri’ Bergin 🪶 @them0rri.bsky.social · Aug 28

I vehemently hate survival games. Like, really hate survival games.

BUT, @envar.bsky.social’s Witchspire may just be the game that changes my mind. Here’s why. ✨

www.pcgamesn.com/witchspire/g...

The best thing I played at Gamescom was a witchy fantasy survival game, and I really, really hate survival games

Blending the vibrant visuals of Genshin Impact with the creature-catching survival elements of Palworld, Witchspire is my Gamescom favorite.
