Creature collector RPG EvoCreo brings its turn-based monster battling to Steam, a decade on from mobile

I found the opening 15 minutes of EvoCreo’s demo to be a laugh riot, mostly because I accidentally named my character “Help”, not “Helen”. This lent a certain urgency to all the routine scene-setting and tutorial dialogue. Help, Farmer Whatshisname is looking for you! Help, I’m adding a map feature to your tablet! Help, there are over 170 Creos to discover! Given that RPGs can be sluggish at first, I think I’m going to adopt this as standard practice g

Steam's ancient behemoths face increased competition from new games in the store's 2025 money-making rankings

Right, get ready for some chatter about where the contents of our collective wallets have gone over the past year.

Mates, I promise I haven’t fallen victim to a scam of some kind. There are weird spiderwebs in RDR2. I read about it on the internet! The spiderwebs app

SteamOS seduces another handheld as a new Lenovo Legion Go 2 readies for June

That poll I posted the other day suggests that over half of you RPS reader types play games on Linux, either in part or exclusively. And if a poll says it, I’m in no position to argue, so boy do I have just the CES 2026 story for you: Lenovo are making a SteamOS version of their premium Legion Go 2 portable, joining the lower-end Legion Go S in spreading the Linux-based SteamOS beyond the confines of Valve’s own Steam Decks.

Help! I'm caught in the grip of a clicker game where you feed the belly of a fusion reactor

In my defense, there's something a lot more active and engaging at the core of this 'idle' clicker than I'm used to. Though, it also helps that Feed The Reactor's theming has me picturing myself as a lab boffin, carefully crafting the mix of fuel and ignition sources that will fire up the heart of a
