"A wordless world that speaks": Lofsöng is like a Playdead game set in a Brutalist nuclear exclusion zone

Lofsöng is an ash-blown, top-down exploration game set on an Earth ravaged by nuclear winter, whose Brutalist structures form a sleeping, sunken language, revealed by sound. You are a "childlike figure" – notice the qualification – accompanied by a magic origami sculpture that refolds into such unlockable forms as gliders and sailboats, allowing you to zip ever more gracefully among the post-apocalyptic monoliths.

Masters of Albion and Sintopia show god games are nothing without a deity's twitchy fingers

I've been thinking a lot about hands this week. Weird little things, covered in fingers and nails, always clenching and unclenching. Though, for once, they're not on my mind because I can't shake the realisation that they're basically boney squids attached to my wrists.

One of the first times I remember seeing an optical analog gaming keyboard hit the mainsteam was the Razer Huntsman V2 Analog launch in 2021 - what feels like naffing ages ago now. Since then, we've seen keyboards gain more controller-like tech, like rapid trigger inputs and Hall Effect switches, but optical analog boards are where it all started, and the Huntsman v2 Analog remains a fine option today - especially when it's going cheap. When this keyboard was new, it retailed for $250, although

Save 35% on one of the best budget racing wheels of all time for console and PC sim racing

The Logitech G29/G920 racing wheel design has been around for the best part of a decade, and has introduced countless people to the world of sim racing - myself included. It's a humble but well-made wheel with gear-driven force feedback, a full set of on-board controls, and convenient compatibility with console and PC (the console depends on the model you choose; both work with Windows) that makes it a versatile choice for sim racers just starting out.

Don't miss The Third Shift, a Game Boy horror museum that cleverly entangles Resident Evil-style CCTV perspectives with point-and-click investigation

The most horrifying thing that ever happened to me while playing Game Boy was a school 'friend' flicking the power switch while getting off the train, just as I'd finally beaten that one maddeningly obscure block puzzle in The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening. He's lucky he's not buried somewhere under the railway lines between Shipley and Baildon. There were Game Boy horror games, but they were mostly crammed-down approximations of Resident Evil and the like, and I found them about as spooky
