Hello, and welcome to our new series which picks out interesting things that we'd love someone to make a game about. This isn't a chance for us to pretend we're game designers, more an opportunity to celebrate the range of subjects games can tackle and the sorts of things that seem filled with glorious gamey promise. Check out our 'Someone should make a game about' archive for all our pieces so far. Read more

Have You Played? is an endless stream of game retrospectives. One a day, every day, perhaps for all time. Truth be told, this is probably best played on a touch screen, because it feels like it s meant to be interactive in that slightly more intimate way. But whatever you play it on, you should have a go at Gorogoa. (more…)

A Panel Shaped Screen is a monthly column where Giada Zavarise explores how comics and video games inspire each other (and is supposed to be on a Thursday, my bad. This week Giada is looking at the games that are actually comics. Drawing a comic book is like playing Tetris with narrative beats. You have to somehow put on a page everything the script requires you to draw, give the right amount of space to important moments, make sure the reader s gaze flows naturally from panel to panel, and all your panels must look nice and clear but also in harmony with each other. So you, the artist, sket

Hi all! We just released an update for Gorogoa that now includes the original 2012 demo of the game. The demo is unlocked once you complete the full game, where you can see how the art style has progressed, as well as similarities and differences with a few puzzle mechanics. For eagle-eyed fans, you may have noticed a new achievement added a few weeks ago related to the demo, which is now unlockable. Additionally, the game is also available to purchase and download for Mac owners! We hope you continue to enjoy the game, as many others have already had, and please follow Gorogoa on Twitter for

This is The Mechanic, where Alex Wiltshire invites developers to discuss the difficult journeys they underwent to make the best bits of their games. This time, Gorogoa . Gorogoa is a game about fitting things together. Fitting a detail in one image with a detail in another and see how it produces something new. And in making it, developer Jason Roberts found that making things fit was one of the greatest challenges he faced, whether those things were puzzles into the game’s tiles, sequences into its story, or details into players heads. Gorogoa is also a game about linking things togethe

We’ve been following the development of mind-bending, reality-warping, picture-based puzzler Gorogoa for five years, since it was first revealed in 2012. It then went on to win an IGF Award in 2014, despite being unfinished. And now, finally, it’s here. And as our review says, it’s magnificent. We spoke to lone developer Jason Roberts about the long development, the process of what to leave out, and how unknowability was woven into the fabric of the game. (more…)

Gorogoa feels like a sort of magic that might fall apart in the understanding. It’s a beautiful story in which you solve puzzles more by instinct than deduction, and their solutions feel as magical as the process. Its impossibly overlapping world weaves a delicate fiction that stretches beyond the boundaries of its central conceit. (more…)
