19 games for 35 nicker
19 is such an annoying number in terms of the page layout that I’m almost convinced to never give to charity again, but there are some very nice games, including the aforementioned Shadows Of Doubt,Dungeons And Degenerate Gamblers,Citizen Sleeper,Another Crab’s Treasure,Two Point Campus, andDeathsprint 66.
The bundle itself is joining a bunch of other streaming events over December in raising money for eight charities. That’s War Child, CALM, Autistica, Cool Earth, Sarcoma UK, The Trevor Project, Bristol Children’s Hospital, and Whale And Dolphin Conservation. You can find the details of each, including the stream timeshere. If there’s a specific charity from the list you’re especially interested in supporting, different streams each have specific causes they’re fundraising for.
Of the games, I’m quite fond of both Two Point Campus and Dungeons And Degenerate Gamblers. I suspect my actual favourite will turn out to be Citizen Sleeper - I’ve just been holding off on playing it for the right time. I like to meticulously block-in calender dates on which I expect to experience strong emotions, lest they interfere with my usual schedule of detached ennui.
My autocorrect won’t let me write ‘Brendy’ today without changing it to ‘Brandy’. Is this you trying to be Christmassy, Google docs? Please do not try and enforce your regime of cheer on me, it’s horrible. Anyway - Brendan’s favourite from the list would, I imagine, be Shadows Of Doubt,to which he awardeda coveted and delicious RPS Bestest Best. “Officers! Arrest this game, it’s brilliant,” wrote he. “I think the immersive detective sim has found its first true killer”. Come for the thoughtful breakdown, stay for a detective named Dick McClumps.
