We’ve stumbled into some uncertain times, dear readers. I can’t say I’ve ever experienced anything as intense as the Social Distancing Era. As we watch doctors of all kinds on the news recommend that we stay home as much as possible, we’re faced with new challenges to overcome. Those of us who self-isolate may find this to be a troubling time — especially if it affects our income, work, childcare or health. Yet “social distancing” doesn’t have to mean completely cutting yourselves off from your support network! Path of Exile is a beautifully robust ARPG that will help bridge the gap. It’s like if Developer Grinding Gear Games basically wanted Diablo 2 back, so they created their own Grecian-inspired version. It’s all there: awesome loot, a unique ability-gem loadout system, a massive skill tree that allows you to create inspired builds. It features online co-op so you and your buddies can play through the story together. The best part is that it’s free-to-play, so it’s an ease on both your mind and your wallet during these trying times. Path of Exile can be found on Xbox One, PS4 and PC which means a wide audience will be able to enjoy playing.
Witches aren’t exactly the most imposing enemies in Minecraft . After all, they simply look like a Villager dressed in “spooky attire.” One might mistake them for a Villager celebrating Halloween, but ignoring their presence is a mistake. Witches have a nasty poison that lasts for an agonizingly long 45 seconds for any player that’s hit by their toxic concoct
Castles are always a safe choice for Minecraft players since they’ll often end up looking impressive and fantastical no matter the location or setting. Plus, the blocks and the aesthetics of the game are simply perfect for more medieval-style bui
Despite looking like a simple title, Project Zomboid ‘s fun gameplay and tough challenges made it a huge hit among survival fans. Every death feels like a lesson learned as players try to develop a wealth of skills to tackle the zombie apocaly
Rather than going for an evil wizard’s castle, however, why not instead create a lava blade house, which looks like a sword stuck into the ground? That’s the path AtrixStd went for in their build, which also has a tutorial available on their YouTube chan

Updated on March 20, 2025, by Mati Kent-Nye: 14 years after its release, Minecraft Guide continues to be updated regularly, bringing with it countless new blocks to build with and biomes to build in, whether on land, underground, or at sea. Its creative limits are constantly expanding, drawing in beginner and veteran builders alike. The most recent 1.21 update gifted players with an array of new copper blocks, opening up a whole new world of mechanical-themed builds. A new material mechanic, oxidization, was also introduced. Unless waxed, copper blocks will slowly change color from bronze to teal. They can also be waxed in their semi-oxidized state, making for versatile bui
The hand-drawn art style employed by Deli Interactive’s We Need To Go Deeper is incredibly reminiscent of the one used in Don’t Starve Together , making this a great option for those who liked the look and feel of Klei Entertainment’s smash hit. That’s not the only thing that’s similar though, with many of the survival elements found throughout the title feeling incredibly familiar as w
This beacon megabase by Trollyn_ is absolutely gorgeous and took them over 12 hours to build. That still seems like an insane feat, considering the sheer amount of detail and planning that probably went into crafting something as elaborate as this. Adding beacons into builds is also a fantastic idea, as they can often serve as a centerpiece or something to build aro
Who said a home has to look like one? Any place that’s safe and has a bed is a valid spot to call home, and that thought alone should get anyone’s creative juices flowing. Why not make something completely different, something unexpected and even bizarre that most players wouldn’t even think of using as a ho
Minecraft: Story Mode – Episode 4: A Block and a Hard Place is the strongest episode yet in basically every aspect. Employing emotional factors as well as hard story elements, Telltale has managed to create a story that originated from just a few blocks. Every second of this two hour episode was spent towards making the player feel as though everyone really is depending on them to save the world. Hard times fall, but Jessie and his friends make this episode an unforgettable experience that one can only hope to be transferred to next and final episode of this series.
Despite being in Early Access, many players consider Valheim to be one of the best survival games ever made . The objective of gaining Odin’s favor in a world inspired by Norse mythology makes for a truly great time in every
