The Troupe visits High Hedge, hoping to gain some arcane insight on their way to Beregost. They seek out the Firewine Bridge Ruins, to follow up on Charleston Nib’s excavation of Kozah’s ancient society. Perhaps some of Thalantyr’s knowledge could help them on their journey.

I do this for a living and for fun.
THOTH is Telling Me to Get Good
THOTH may seem straightforward at first, but it reveals surprising layers of complexity. I’ve completed the main set of levels, but now I have a new challenge being thrown at me. Much harder, much more frustrating, yet somehow still just as fun.
The Perils Near High Hedge
The mist clings to the Wilderness Lake’s edge as the Troupe presses onward toward the Firewine Bridge Ruins. Their mood is lighter after helping Drizzt Do’Urden clear the area of hungry gnoll infestation. But tension still lingers in the air.
I Was Wrong About Super Meat Boy
When I first wrote about Super Meat Boy, I said that I thought Super Meat Boy was just a rage-inducing platformer only for hardcore players. I couldn’t have been more wrong. Ever since that first time I’ve been playing it on and off in short bursts.
The Dark Elf and the Gnolls
After Rose stole the Idol of Kozah from an ancient ruin, the Troupe were forced to defeat the undead Doom Guards cursed to protect the Idol. Having gained a taste for exploring ancient ruins, the Troupe has decided to make their way toward the Firewine Bridge to the east.
Holding Down the Mouse Button
There are games that are extremely popular that I just don’t get. Grim Dawn has a loyal fanbase and a Very Positive rating on Steam. Yet after three hours, I still can’t understand the appeal. Am I out of touch, or is it the children who are wrong?
Doomsayer: Curse of Kozah
While the Troupe helped protect an archeological dig, they were forced to fight their way out through possessed archeologists. Before they left the tomb, Rose stole an artefact from the ruins of the ancient society.
THOTH – Frustratingly Fun
THOTH, unlike the Egyptian god of the same, is a minimalist game that feels like playing a work of abstract art. It was created by Jeppe Carlsen, former lead developer on Limbo and Inside. It’s a game of short, fast-paced action and problem solving.
Day of the Tentacle Remastered
One of the most beloved classic adventure games of the ’90s, Day of the Tentacle, returns in a beautifully remastered version that breathes new life into a quirky, time-traveling tale.
Mods That Improve Villagers
I’m taking a break from development this week as I am focused on other things. So instead I decided to recommend some mods I enjoy using in my personal mod pack.
