Had a weird dream last night that The RZA dropped a new album called Black Belt and the front cover was him wearing a karate belt as an eye-patch. He doing subliminal marketing?

I own several versions of La-Mulana going back to the Wii release, but I've always wanted to play the original MSX style version. Tried to run it on my new laptop but came up with a known grey box problem. Downloaded wrappers and tweaked a few things but no joy. I'm useless at this sort of thing..

TOP TIP: If you are foraging blackberries and you want to cook them, I recommend soaking them in a mixture of water and vinegar for about 20 mins to get all the wee creepy crawlies out first and then give them one last rinse. I remember my granda would sit and patiently extract them with a pin.

The blackberry bush in my garden has grown massively since last year. This isn’t even half of the haul. Crumble anyone?

Arriving to my first Civil Engineering job in Infra (2016) and right away I stumble on a bucket of jobbies. Do you think I can carry one all the way to the end of the game like the gnome in Half-Life 2 - Episode 2?

A thing I'll say about Big Walk is that if you're at all sold on it already, consider not reading any reviews until you've played it, because it's even better when you don't know what's coming. I tried to tread as lightly as possible in my review but probably spoiled a couple of small things.

Started playing Hell is Us (2025) last night and it’s a very strange (good) game. Here you see a bunch of faceless dancer-like enemies approaching me like a jittery version of the Jets and Sharks from West Side Story…
