Unwinnable Monthly – June 2025

By David Shimomura • June 20th, 2025

One snake, two snake, boss snake, you snake!

Here's the Thing
A screenshot from Robocob: Rogue City shows the titular fellow all shiny and chrome.

I Don’t Know How I Feel About Robocop: Rogue City

By Rob Rich • June 17th, 2025

After finally playing that one recent Robocop game, Rob has conflicted feelings.

Forms in Light
A goron from Tears of the Kingdom grimaces as if ready for a fight. His face his painted in electric red designs that seem to glow.

Echoes of the Mountain

By Justin Reeve • June 13th, 2025

Goron City exemplifies how architecture, when viewed from a phenomenological perspective, can truly transcend the limitations of traditional production.

Dialogue
Two Men before a Waterfall at Sunset by Johan Christian Dahl

A Dialogue with Jacob Geller

By Autumn Wright • June 12th, 2025

“My dream of dreams was maybe I could do this as a job, maybe I’ll get paid millions of dollars to talk about video games, but more it was just I want these conversations that I’m having as one side of writing a blog.”

What Are We Talking About When We’re Talking About Star Wars?

By Natasha Ochshorn • June 10th, 2025

A screenshot from Split Fiction shows Mio and Zoe clad in medieval garb, very confused about the baby dragons on their shoulders.

Space Without Story

Messing around in a space with a good buddy is hardwired into the human brain and it doesn’t matter whether or not that space is digital.

Rookie of the Year
A Yankees player squares up for a hit at home plate.

A Rocky Road To The Show

By Matt Marrone • June 5th, 2025

Sure, Matt Mambo is fictional. And yes, for whatever reason, the real Yankees manager had been replaced by someone who frankly lacks the gravitas to assess my performance.

The title screen for Kara Stone's Known Mysteries, a delightfully low fi design that hearkens back to the video graphics of the 90s.

Designing for Land and Body

By Phoenix Simms • June 4th, 2025

Kara Stone is one of the game designers to watch when it comes to designing in an eco-conscious manner.

Don't Stop Believing
In key art from the first game, Bayonetta stands facing away from the viewer in front of the full moon, giant on the horizon.

She doesn’t want to rule. She just wants to live.
