Ho-ho-ho! It's the first day of the c.s.i.p.g.a. Game's Give-Away. Just like an advent calendar - where everyday you open the little door and get a piece of chocolate- here I'm giving away a free game between now and Christmas. But also like an advent calendar, there's only one goodie behind each door, so you gotta be fast; it's first-come, first-serve, and if you aren't quick, somebody else is gonna get the toy (so it's a lot like when your little brother used to sneak out to get the chocolate before you even woke up, the little brat!) We're starting off slow. Today's game is: Life Is Strange - Episode 1 -------------------------------- The "Life is Strange" game is an episodic adventure title developed by DontNod Entertainment. Critically and popularly acclaimed, it's a character- and story-rich tale that follows photography student Maxine Caulfield, who suddenly discovers she has the ability to rewind time. Story and character arc serve as the central point in the game rather than traditional graphic adventure tropes like point-and-click puzzles, although there are plenty of the latter as well. The series is five episodes long, but this give-away is only for the first. Still, it's enough to see if the game is something you might enjoy and, if you like it, well, you've saved a little money on the whole game. Available for: Windows PC Available through: Steam Steam Key: QT28V-8WLKX-3NC7J Happy holidays, and - if you were the swiftest in the bunch - enjoy the game! If you weren't fast enough, don't worry, there are 23 more games to go! Ho-ho-ho!

Arkham VR was an eye opener on how good adventure games can be in VR. And the funny thing is, that Arkham VR would not even be a very good game in non VR mode. But this is getting off topic. What I wanted to say is give Life is Strage an chance, it really deserves it even if you are not into adventure games.
