In recent years, Waffle House has made headlines due to the shocking incidents of violence that have occurred there. Numerous factors may contribute to this phenomenon, and the fact that the diner operates 24 hours a day means that alcohol often fuels late-night aggression. Videos depicting all-out brawls between customers and staff have gone viral. Even the television show «Saturday Night Live» recently parodied the rough-and-tumble nature of this all-hours breakfast spot.
The sheer number of fans requesting a Waffle House stage became too large to ignore. Even the game’s lead producer, Katsuhiro Harada, could no longer overlook the will of the people, responding on X to fans asking for further clarification on the admittedly strange request. Initially, it seemed like the developer was uninterested until Harada commented on a clip of a Waffle House-themed fan creation in. The clip features a 3D Waffle House interior where two prominent characters battle it out in a breakfast brouhaha. Whether or not it happens, Bandai Namco is listening to the fans.

One enterprising Stardew Valley player may have found the most profitable method of gathering flower honey that the game allows.

There’s a view amongst some psychologists that boredom is a vital part of a person’s mental wellbeing. Take psychologists James Danckert and John D Eastwood, who in an article in the Guardian propose that “boredom can steer us towards realising our potential and living full, meaningful lives.” Indeed, the suggestion is that, in our tech-soaked culture, we don’t spend enough time being bored. Danckert and Eastwood believe that “boredom has been the push for much creativity, innovation, and growth” in human society. For anyone looking to improve themselves via the benefits of boredom then, I have the ideal solution: play through Harold Halibut. As good as it looks, it is sadly one of the dullest video games I’ve ever experienced.
After over a decade of development, the gorgeous stop-motion narrative adventure Harold Halibut has finally arrived. For the most part, the game doesn’t focus that heavily on puzzles and guides you by the hand through its story, but there still are a few parts in the game where you might find yourself a bit lost.

Dead Island: Riptide has been seeing a major uptick in player count on Steam as of late. The 11-year-old Dead Island spin-off has received a new surge in players, who have begun to breathe some new life into Dead Island: Riptide.
Almost all video games are painstakingly made by human hands, but Harold Halibut takes that idea so literally that you can almost spot the fingerprints of its creators on screen. This colourful, story-driven adventure features meticulously hand-sculpted characters that have been seated in detailed miniature sets, digitally scanned, and brilliantly brought to life in a 12-hour interactive stop-motion movie that we get to star in. Yet, like the oceanic alien world in which it takes place, Harold Halibut is deeper than it first appears. I came for the unconventional art style, but I stayed for the cast of quirky characters and a playful mystery to unravel that features plenty of warmth and humour beneath its striking stop-motion surface.
