    Ball x Pit has a new update because who needs free time anyway?

    I haven't become this obsessed with a roguelike since Balatro. Yes, Ball x Pit sits in esteemed company and, no, I'm not touching Slay the Spire 2 until its full release. Ball x Pit sat high up on my Game of the Year list for 2025, and any time developer Kenny Sun and Friends…

    Ball x Pit was my Steam Deck obsession last year, and its first major update threatens to steal my free time all over again

    'It's like Balatro' is the most overused comparison in indie games , and yet I can't help but return to it every time I talk about Ball x Pit . There are no cards, no poker, no jokers, no bananas, no Jimbo, no tarot, no Ben Starrs, but it is a roguelike where you craft careful…

    The videogame that started it all gets a roguelike reimagining 53 years after launch, and it's free to try

    What's the first game you ever played? Mine was Super Mario Advance 2, a bona fide banger and the only game I owned until around a year after I won a Game Boy Advance in a competition, much to my parents' chagrin. I played it for hours and hours and - you get the picture. I got…
