Raid Hour (also referred to as Legendary Raid Hour) started as an experiment in March 2019. Initially called Legendary Lunch Hour, Niantic set aside an hour on Wednesdays for Pokémon GO Trainers to find 5-Star (Legendary) Raids easier by increasing the appearance rates.

The cozy game genre has been growing over the last few years across all gaming platforms. It’s easy to find charming, cute games featuring farming, befriending cute little creatures, and participating in dance battles?

What if Dark Souls… but crab? That’s the main promise of Another Crab’s Treasure from Aggro Crab games – what if you took the tight, difficult combat defined by FromSoftware and took it under the sea. As a hermit crab whose shell has been repossessed, you’ll explore a…
Today’s Indie World had a few oddities but few caught my eye quite like Wayward Strand and its alternate 1970’s Australian flying hospital. Yes, that’s really the setting.
