From October 17 to November 2, the halls are strewn with bat-filled pumpkin husks, arranged as offering to the great Halloween Worms of Pestilence and Horror. To prepare, we finally reveal the ancient rite used to POWER UP BOSSES TO NIGHTMARE DIFFICULTY: Upon teleporting to any boss domain, you find your landing spot encircled by small stones. Using the attack button, action each stone individually, moving clockwise from left to right. You know the action is accepted if the button does not trigger an attack. You will see the beast's power level increase if you have performed the ritual correct

Australia is still burning, but over the last couple of days they’ve actually had some rain! While this is a big help to certain areas, there are still 83 fires blazing around the country, and there’s a lot of people and wildlife still in trouble. It’s good job then that there are even more game devs, companies, and communities banding together to help out our friends down under. A new Humble Bundle, a donation from the makers of Warframe, and a charity initiative run by Eve Online players are just three more ways the games industry is raising money, and you can get involve

I spent a good chunk of time working on it, but eventually had to admit it wasn't going to be possible while maintaining what narrow grasp on sanity we still held. But recently we noticed some people in the community playing online using something called Parsec. We've played a bunch with it ourselves now and had a great time, so we're happy to be able to give it the Official Powerhoof™ Severed Thumbs Up of Approval®! Parsec bas

While local multiplayer was once mostly limited to consoles or LAN parties, PC gamers looking for a dose of that old-school same-screen nostalgia now have more options than ever, and by streaming games to the TV you can play on the couch even while your PC is in another room. Some local multiplayer PC games focus on fierce competition, parroting the arena brawling of games like Super Smash Bros. Others can be every bit as frantic, but pit you and your friends against the game instead of each other. However it is you like to play, these are the best local multiplayer games on PC.

This is The Mechanic, where Alex Wiltshire invites developers to discuss the inner workings of their games. This time, Crawl . Crawl is a game about cooperation, betrayal and murder and accumulating enough eldritch power to kill a god. Made by Australian indie Powerhoof, it s a couch multiplayer game played with up to three friends, but only one of you can be the hero. Everyone else is playing a monster, but when a monster kills the hero, it takes their place. This loop, of ganging up, competing to strike the final blow and then turning on your friends, captures the essential heart of the best

Powerhoof's asymmetric dungeon roamer roguelike Crawl has been in Early Access for so long, I'd actually forgotten it existed. First released into Steam's supported development initiative in August, 2014, it wowed with its multiplayer flare and intuitive catch-up mechanics—and now boasts "Overwhelmingly Positive" aggregate reviews on Steam. It's also now got a launch date: April 11, 2017.  Before we get to the obligatory launch trailer, here's Powerhoof on what it's all about:  "Crawl is the local multiplayer dungeon crawler where y

Ace local multiplayer dungeon crawler Crawl will leave early access after two-and-a-half years to properly launch on April 11th, developers Powerhoof have announced. Crawl is a roguelikelike dungeon-crawling action-RPG, see, with one player as an adventurer and three player controlling the monsters and traps. It’s cooperative/competitive local multiplayer, or compoerative as we definitely do say in The Business. I’ve not played it in yonks but it was fun even way back when, so a full and fancy release sounds grand. …
