As the Troupe moves deeper into the Cloakwood, Jaheira warns that this part of the wood is infested with ettercaps and spiders. They encounter Tiber, who asks them to seek out his brother, Chelak. Chelak foolishly went into the forest with a magical sword, believing he would leave a hero.
Video Games
I do this for a living and for fun.
Failed Conquest of Quebec
The Total War series has been a staple of slow, realistic war games since Shogun: Total War came out in the year 2000. Since then there have been numerous titles in the series, each set in different periods of time.
The Wild Elf Hunter’s Quest
The Troupe helped the Druids of the Cloakwood defend themselves against hunters that murdered one of their kin. Seniyad, the leader of the Druids, then enlisted Jaheira’s help to find two druids who may have been captured by Shadow Druids deeper in the forest.
Mysterium: A Psychic Clue Game
Have you ever tried to communicate with a ghost to solve their murder? In Mysterium, that’s exactly what you do; only instead of words, the ghost communicates through cryptic visions. It’s a fantastic concept for a board game, blending deduction with eerie, dreamlike imagery.
The Druids of the Cloakwood
Aegon leads the Troupe to the Cloakwood in pursuit of Tazok. They learn that the Iron Throne has a facility in the forest where they hold prisoners. They meet some hunters in the forest who murdered a druid, and are now poised to help the druids defend their home.
It is Time to Get Serious
I never played Serious Sam when it came out, despite it looking like a fun game. At the time of release I was heavily invested in playing or modding Quake and Counter-Strike, and didn’t see the need for another FPS in my collection.
Into the Cloakwood Forest
Aegon leads his troupe to the Cloakwood Forest in pursuit of Tazok. Tazok’s role in the Sword Coast Conspiracy is as yet unclear, but one thing Aegon knows is that in finding Tazok he will be one step closer to finding Gorion’s killer.
This Time It’s Miracle Sudoku!
In my quest to play through my Steam library, I found another Sudoku game that reinvents the formula with clever new rules.
Massacre at the Bandit Camp
Aegon and the Troupe decide to follow Tazok to the Cloakwood Forest after exploring the ruins of the Sword Coast. Their first stop is the Friendly Arm Inn where they are accosted by assassins once again. Only these were not the usual type of assassin.
GRIS Made Me Cry in Colour
What if grief could be painted into a living world? A short yet beautiful game this week, GRIS is an expression of loss, and a story of how we cope. It is a work of art more than it is a game, an interactive experience asking for interpretation.
