Explained simply
Rock Paper Shotgun is a games website whose writers cover new releases, older favourites and the wider culture around gaming. Its staff often share what they are playing, giving readers a chance to join in with their own recommendations and plans.
The games mentioned range from Hard Void, a strategy game with cosmic horror themes, to Big Walk, a co-operative puzzle game, and established titles such as Skyrim and Dirt Rally 2.0. Review embargoes are agreements that can restrict when journalists discuss a game, so writers may have to keep some details under wraps until a set date.
