No time of the week is too early to play 4D mini golf

by

I couldn't sleep last night for reasons entirely of my own making, and my brain feels like that cursed garbage bag you refuse to empty because there's no way to do it that won't turn the neighborhood into Silent Hill. I need to avoid complex writing, or my brain will similarly explode and paint North London grey.

Ah, a mini golf game! I think I can almost hack the concept of minigolf on this most desperate of Mondays. Golf but mini. Bonzai golf. Digestible! Intuitive! Anyway, I managed to write 100 words without even looking at the Steam page. Let's do that now. Wait a minute, this isn't mini golf. This is Mini Mini Golf Golf.

Decade is a techno-noir adventure game where you send kids back in time to prevent metal rain from damaging the planet.

by

One of my biggest challenges as a writer has been tempering my love of vague gestures towards metaphysical concepts with the revelation that the people who read my articles apparently can't read my mind either. Ah. Honestly, if I ever saw one, it was a skill issue. Decade is a fascinating adventure game that drew me in with its apparent ambiguity, but then, like a thoughtful, rational coward, it went on to explain itself eloquently on its Steam page.

The world's ending and you're not too happy about it, so you're going to shove the kids into a time machine with little more than a rotting lunch and some instructions to help you figure out what went wrong.
