Mirthwood Foreword This review is based around final release, patch 1.0.41.p2. Overall, my thoughts – and Steam review – are negative, with the observation that I’m still playing and that Mirthwood is not a terrible game – just that I don’t think it’s not worth buying yet. Overall reviews at present are mixed, with only

Len’s Island Guide Flow Studio – a four-man Aussie indie – have been working on Len’s Island for seven years now and expect it to be finished later this year (i.e. mid 2025). I played in early access (0.9.041) and found it bug free and very polished. The final release will add a multi-player option

Baldur’s Gate: Act 3 There’s plenty to do in act 3, but it can be summed up as explore Rivington and the south span of Wyrn’s Crossing, explore Wyrm Rock, then onto the main action in Lower City, where all the real action is. There are a few challenges (depending on difficulty setting, of course);

Baldur’s Gate: Act 2 All paths lead to Rome, or at least Moonrise Note first: There are two ways to enter the Shadowlands, via Grymforge or via the mountains, bringing you out in different points. The Grymforge is the best option. In some ways, while meandering, Act 2 is pretty much linear. Clear, move forward,
