23rd February 2024
Hello! Welcome back to our regular feature where we write a little bit about some of the games we’ve been playing over the past few days. This week: deliveries, hotlines, and awkwardly hung paintings.
If you fancy catching up on some of the older editions of What We’ve Been Playing, here’s our archive.
Death Stranding, PC
I’m playing through Death Stranding at the moment, and it’s the perfect drizzly game for February. Has there ever been a game so in love with the rain? Not just when it’s falling, but the way it leaves the landscape after it’s stopped, and the way you feel when you know that rain is coming. Death Stranding is the very spirit of that magical, sonorous word Petrichor. Just looked it up properly: the smell of rain.
