Oh God. "Not" is an absolute game-changer!

Brave Rats is usually what my wife and I play on a plane. You need very little space. 2player only, though. A typical game only lasts about 4minutes so you could keep rotating.

Loads of people already said this, but it'd be a crime not to get Celeste if you're interested in it.

What is it?

Celeste is worth every penny three times over. Just buy it.

"It's not for everyone" to the highest degree.

I do think it's a genuinely good game. It's butt-clenchingly tense in the best way, at points. But I found myself stuck banging my head against a wall trying to progress and gave up, in the end (though I still haven't ruled out returning at some point). The systems involved seem very clever, but are also very opaque. If you like doing a lot of experimentation, you'll probably love this aspect of the game.

It's hard as nails. It's my favourite game that I just can't get into. There's a lot to love, but in terms of hand-holding, it makes Dark Souls look like a nurturing mother.

Which character are you using? As a general recovery tip: if you're finding that people are guarding you from getting back, mix up how you get back. You have several options to help you return (your double jump, up+b, air dodge and extra options depending on character), but if you approach the same way every time, you're predictable and easy to guard against. Also, vary your get up options from the ledge, for the same reasons (you can jump up, attack up, drop and jump or just do a normal get-up).

A few things: Ness feels so damn good in this game, especially with the new dramatic finish on PK Thunder 2. Is Piranha Plant a preorder bonus? Did anyone who ordered through Simply Games get a code? Are rllmuk lobbies for this a thing yet? Because if not, let's make it a thing.

Wait til you discover the wonders of his down-B.

If I remember correctly, you barely get a reward for the third trial at all (other than the satisfaction of completing it).

No problem
