One of mobile’s best gaming classics has just completely vanished from Google Play. That’s bad enough, but even worse is the fact that you can no longer play it at all – even if you bought it before it was delisted.

Baldur's Gate 3 is a messy business. You're constantly wading through filth and getting into drawn-out fights that leave you bruised and bloody. Typically, you just sleep it off, but before you know it, you're back to looking like Absolute shit.
Players have long sought workarounds, like flinging water bottles at their party members to wash away the muck, but this means A) throwing hard objects at your allies and B) hoarding water bottles. I don't know about you, but I don't fancy pissing off Astarion just to give him a bath. Which I realise now makes him sound like a cat.

It turns out that there's a much simpler solution, as shared by Inactivism on the Baldur's Gate 3 subreddit; "Stand under a waterfall and shower and you look clean! I discovered that yesterday and don't know if everyone already knew that but I want EVERYONE to know! This is so neat."
We've all been on the internet, let's not sugarcoat it. People are horny for Baldur's Gate 3's characters. Everyone wants Astarion to rip their throats out, Shadowheart to step all over them, and Halsin to literally become the bear they've always dreamed of.
So, enjoy this new cleaning method. You can get your party of faves, strip 'em down, and go for an all-natural shower. Live out your thirsty fantasy and wash the blood away, unless, of course, you're into the splash of gore and ripe purple bruises.
"They're all so hot when they're covered in blood though," sznuw said.
"Splattered on their face: sexy, dangerous," NAINOA- said. "Drenching their outfits I meticulously designed: anathema."
Of course, there aren't always waterfalls just lying around. What if you're in the Lower City? Luckily, players have found portable solutions, too. "I always keep Create Water on at least one member," Fluffy-Tanuki said. "Shower on demand."
Alternatively, "There are also water pumps that you can use to achieve the same effect," as noted by Wigu90. "There's one in Last Light Inn, in a passageway that runs along Dammon's workshop and towards the mined bridge. But there's a severe lack of them in the city proper".
In Act 1, there's even a river at camp by Withers, so you don't have to stray off the beaten path to clean up. The problem is that your party won't follow you at camp, so you'll have to do it one by one, which is hardly in keeping with the thirsty spirit.

Baldur's Gate 3 has a bunch of different ways to fend off your enemies, some of which involve getting very creative with the mechanics you have on hand. I mean, who among us hasn't shoved a major boss down a cliff in one turn? Or polymorphed Cazador before he can even start the rite of profane ascension? Well, turns out it can get even weirder than that, and all you need is the right corpse.
There’s a movie, hiding in the recesses of Tubi, Roku Channel, and other ad-supported streaming services, that feels like watching a waking nightmare. It’s an indescribable movie, not really existing in any particular genre. It’s a horror movie, a drama, an arthouse film, and a work of grounded surrealism.
It's possible to immortalize a custom character in , but it can be all too easy to make a mistake that will forever affect Tav's preserved legacy. Whether helping everyone in sight or going down a path of evil, it's safe to say that any protagonist is going to leave a major impact on the world. Making sure that history has something to remember them by might be a touch narcissistic, but it's arguably justified as long as it ends up looking good.
There are many powerful melee weapons in . Some have a high damage dice, allowing for a powerful attack. Others have supportive properties which can make allies stronger or considerably cripple foes.
does an admirable job accounting for player creativity and experimentation, but certain possibilities are blocked off by limitations that can be immersion-breaking and lead to some head-scratching moments. The task of emulating the experimentation of tabletop is a challenging one, as the lack of a dungeon master that can respond naturally to improvisation means that the game has to account for a surplus of scenarios ahead of time. Many of 's biggest failures to manage this are all tied to the same mechanic that feels like it has a uniquely incomplete implementation.
There are many purported cures for the tadpole parasites that plague the party in , and one of those is the bard Volo's experimental surgery. Players are liable to first meet Volo in the Emerald Grove, where he's interviewing a druid in Wild Shape about the recent goblin-tiefling conflicts. He twists their words to craft an exaggerated account of their recent battle, before disappearing from the grove. As it turns out, Volo's been kidnapped by goblins and forced to perform odes to their leader Dror Ragzlin. The party needs to rescue him if they want to see more of the blustering bard.
Thrumbo, an oddly-named zombie, can be either friend or foe to the party. In order to meet him, they'll first have to get through Wyrm's Rock Fortress and into the Lower City of Baldur's Gate. Once inside, they may spy the majesty of Philgrave's Mansion. Knock on the door (or sneak through the hole in the back), and Mystic Carrion will offer a cold greeting. He's an undead mummy, and he operates a fine little shop with some great gear for spellcasters. But more importantly, he needs the party to find his lost thrall. In return, he promises a magic item.
does an excellent job of recreating the roleplaying experience in a video game, but one specific side quest pokes some loving fun at its inspirations. is a tool that can be used for endless creativity, but it also lends itself to certain tropes or familiar gameplay elements that recur in many campaigns. In some cases, tropes can be popular because of their epic scale or memorable impact, but others stick around more because of convenience than out of any particular love that players have for them.

Thisobald Thorm has a memorable presence in Act 2 of , but deciding on the best way to deal with him isn't always easy. The Shadow-Cursed Lands of Act 2 are full of looming darkness and threatening encounters, but a few semi-abandoned locations play host to possibly more peaceful encounters. One of these is the Waning Moon, an old brewery currently occupied by a monstrous barkeep and a variety of ghouls. This barkeep is a strange, Frankenstein-like creature who can seem intimidating, but it's possible to initiate a conversation with Thisobald Thorm without pulling out a blade.

Your party can obtain powerful magic artifacts from this place, but getting through the arcane obstacles that stand in your way can be difficult. Exercise caution when traveling to this trove of enchanted items.
