The Troupe have escaped Bone Hill Castle via the tunnels underneath. They have defeated the Wraith and prevented an invasion of Restenford. But it came at the cost of Viconia’s life.
Bok McDonagh
I am Bok, a British-born expat living in China. I was born in Lancashire but identify as a 'plassie-Scouser'. I spent my youth growing up in Cumbria. Here I developed a great taste for exploration, climbing mountains and camping in the wilderness - a taste for travel that has defined my life.
Bukit (Phuket) Elephant Park
One of the things I wanted to do in Thailand was to visit an ethical elephant sanctuary. This turned out to be really simple, but it left a few questions lingering in my mind. Is there such a thing as an ethical sanctuary in Thailand.
Frostpunk: Tough Decisions
Another post-apocalyptic game, this one is set in a world that has become a frozen wasteland. You take the role of leader as the survivors attempt to rebuild society. In this game your greatest enemy is the environment itself.

Experimenting with Banana

The Butterfly’s Final Goals
I’m getting close to finishing version 4 of Bok’s Butterflies. I just need to cross some Is and dot some Ts. A couple of new goals and a bugfix or two, then port the mod to all supported versions, and it’s ready for release.
Noodles Too Hot for Denmark
Recently, Denmark recalled a brand of Korean ramen for being too spicy. At the time I read about this I was on Koh Tao, and I noticed the 7-11 nearby was selling this specific brand.
