Today in the Den

New release Deskrawl towers over the rest of Monday's releases, if not over its reviews First Day Games' idle ARPG peaked at 19,413 players on day one and is still sitting there, though its 284 reviews land at 78 percent positive. Everything else out yesterday is in the hundreds.
  1. Night Crawl · Week 1 · Chapter 2 of 7 Someone cleaned the club before Rook picked the lock. They were not searching. They were tidying. The Glass Orchid. 3 choices, vote by →
  2. New release Antivirus Survivors 2003 Professional: small crowd, almost perfect score A peak of 1,161 players, yet 212 reviews at 99 percent positive. Whatever Shaun Hammond Business Solutions Limited is selling, the people who bought it are very happy indeed.
  3. New release 灰エト shipped two games on Saturday and only one of them landed The Bell Echoes has gathered 188 reviews at 95 percent positive despite a peak of just 178 players, while stablemate The Great Wastes sits at 64 percent. Same developer, same day, very different receptions.
  4. Everyone’s writing about Blizzard is everywhere this week, from a MOBA revival to a WoW crit bug Polygon reports an unexpected comeback for Blizzard's MOBA, PC Gamer has a WoW: Forever dev teasing a new mega dungeon, and Wowhead confirms that PvP crit nerf was a bug all along.
  5. From the archive A Capcom modder puts Third Strike's missing stages back where they belong Time Extension covers a long-awaited restoration of the 2nd Impact and New Gen stages absent from Street Fighter III: Third Strike. Worth an evening with the arcade stick.
