This is probably my favorite preview I've ever gotten to write. One of those games that feels like it creates genuine magic. Can't wait for the full release 💜

"[It] follows the feats and foibles of a legendary weathermaker and, much like its title character, the game seems to have the power to change the very atmosphere around you as you play it." Read our preview of The Marvelous Raincaster of Yell Holler Preview - nosmallgames.com/2026/10/the-...

My sweet girl had to get basically all her teeth removed at the vet this week. She’s been such a trooper overall, and yet… For the next two weeks I’ll be starting and ending each day by wrestling my 10lb dog to the ground to give her her antibiotics. I’m telling you, she’s stronger than she looks 🫠

Shoutout to Robin for picking this game!! I probably wouldn't have gotten to it for another couple months otherwise and I'm SO glad we go to play it now! What a fun chat 🥰

I was on my best behavior for this guest episode (I didn't describe any of the things I want Ursula to do to me in detail and only took ONE completely unprompted jab at Dispatch)

No Small Games@nosmallgames.bsky.social · 5d ago

We had an incredibly fun time deep diving with @robinbombus.bsky.social about all our shenanigans in Sovereign Tower!! Get ready, that episode drops tomorrow! Robin hosts @girlmodepod.bsky.social, @dotzip.online and In Sequence, and is a voice in games media who we hugely admire 💜

This week has been brutal. Whether we’re talking about it publicly or not, I think it’s safe to assume most (all?) the women in your life are some level of not-OK right now. I’m grateful for the people who are finding the words for this moment. I only have sadness and screaming to offer.

I feel like I have so much I want to say but it’s just this incoherent ramble. But do you know how much it weighs on me to be the one woman on staff at GameSpot? To be one of VERY few women in the industry? To be one of ever fewer moms? To walk into press events and be the *sole* woman?
