Some games hide mystery in their titles, practically begging for every narrative thread to be pulled on to discover the secrets behind those words. PowerWash Simulator is not like this. Its direct name reveals that it is exactly what you think it is: the chance to live out your fantasy(?) as a water gun for

Remember those two-penny games you used to play on lazy school lunchtimes? Push-rugby, penny-football, or whatever regional name you might have given it? The only kit needed was a mate, a few coins, a well-honed flick or knuckle-push, and a table. Rules might vary, but you were either trying to get a coin as close

With an elaborate set of puzzles to solve and no shortage of jolting jump scares to shock you with, unraveling the morbid central mystery of Madison is a bit like trying to evacuate an escape room while simultaneously struggling to prevent the vacuation of your bowels. Taking clear inspiration from Hideo Kojima’s superb 2014 Silent
