Post-Hades roguelikes are a dime a dozen, but Lost In Random: The Eternal Die stands head sand shoulders above the pack. It matches the gold standard set by Supergiant's action classic with its strong art style, tight combat, satisfying progression, and build variety. Unlike much of the genre, it also respects your time; and it will take luck, thought, and skill to craft your winning build, and earn your winning run.

In the roundup: Next Fest, Gecko Gods, MIO: Memories In Orbit, The Drifter, and more.

Switch 2 is here! This week's show reviews Nintendo's brand new hardware, and the launch lineup — and wonders whether Switch 2 can become another indie game powerhouse. There's also a review of Spilled, a lovely little eco-game about cleaning up waterways and making the world a better place.

In the roundup: Symphonia, Star Overdrive, Tainted Grail, Pipistrello & The Cursed Yoyo, Fast Fusion, Mario Kart World.
