Closing out Riot Fest 2019, Kelsey and I got engaged. So naturally, for our fifth wedding anniversary, we decided to renew our vows at Riot Fest 2025.

As silly as it may sound, this music festival has meant the world to me for a decade plus. Beyond thrilled we were able to do this.

Cloverpit is pretty much the perfect option if you want a break from Balatro but still want that same thrill!

Read Becca’s full review here:

CloverPit Review | Luck Be an Elusive Lady — Six One Indie

Cloverpit is a roguelite slot machine game where you must pay off your debt each round or be thrown into a seemingly unending pit.

Seconding, and it’s not my Sonic Sicko™️ bias. The game is just such a dang banger.

I know I sound like such a little contrarian "look at me I want attention" dweeb when I say this but...........to speak my truth.......

I like Sonic Racing: CrossWorlds more than Mario Kart World

THERE I SAID IT
