@willdwebster1 @hanachronism @elliotpage @Jade_Pickering @_ajohnstone @rebeccafrausel Oh absolutely - the only way I could complete Discworld I was by following a walkthrough in PC Gamer magazine (because when I was young we had to BUY our walkthroughs and do them UPHILL BOTH WAYS)

Six games I love, six tags.

1. Life Is Strange

@micaelaalcaino @LR_Lam @tordotcom @dawbooks @hodderscape this is so so gorgeous ❤️

[Catriona Silvey @silveycat]

@LizySimonen ooh me too, I love to see it travelling! Hope you enjoy!

On the subject of things Ted Chiang said that are NOT being twisted into strange reductive arguments, I really love the idea of sci-fi being tied to a feeling of awe. When I read sci-fi, I usually do crave a sense of wonder. Leave me humbled by nature, the stars, the universe!

@sarahbonner101 @HarperVoyagerUK aaah thank you so much - I'm so glad you enjoyed it! ❤️

[Catriona Silvey @silveycat]

@rebeccafrausel @hanachronism @elliotpage @Jade_Pickering @_ajohnstone @willdwebster1 Ooh yes this is on my list! (prob for when the kids are grown up at this point, sob)

[Catriona Silvey @silveycat]

@hanachronism @elliotpage @Jade_Pickering @_ajohnstone @willdwebster1 @rebeccafrausel as Wittgenstein taught us, the concept of "game" is indefinable (or: sure, why not)

[Catriona Silvey @silveycat]

@mikechenwriter @hanachronism @elliotpage @Jade_Pickering @_ajohnstone @willdwebster1 @rebeccafrausel isn't it amazing?? I still need to finish my second playthrough

I love @BookcaseTiny - 3 new stories, written to the same prompt, always different, but often with a surprising common thread. For 'Grievances', they all had at least a touch of comedy...

Fear the machines!

Episode 92- in which we are joined by E.M. Faulds (@BethKesh) with three stories written for the prompt "Grievances", listen here: https://t.co/J9nRIeit0P

@mikechenwriter sorry I now realise this looks like I'm yelling at you in incomprehension - for clarity, this should have read "oh my god whaaaaat??🥃🌚" 😄

[Catriona Silvey @silveycat]

@mikechenwriter OH MY GOD WHAT
