Back in 2018, a Doom 2 total conversion mod called Total Chaos came out and immediately became one of the most eye catching of the many, many great games to come from the classic shooter's mod scene. Created by a designer working under the wonderful handle WadaHolic, Total Chaos features an ominous atmosphere and a hardscrabble combat system that emphasizes scavenging and crafting weapons in order to survive against vicious enemies. In the time since it launched, its maker has gone on to put out acclaimed throwback shooter Turbo Overkiller as Trigger Happy Interactive and, notably, been hard ..read more

There are some games that are so interwoven with the fabric of Steam that it's hard to imagine the platform without them.

Games are messy things and games that are the size of MMOs like The Elder Scrolls Online tend to be extremely complicated to keep running smoothly. Tinkering with one part of the game can have unexpected effects in a completely separate area, causing problems that no-one can predict.

If there was one game that everyone with a desktop PC seemed to own in the '90s it was Myst. Cyan's puzzler took cues from point and click adventure games like LucasArts' Maniac Mansion and Sierra Entertainment's King's Quest but presented its world through a first person perspective and early 3D visuals that were, at the time, wildly impressive. Its 1997 sequel Riven: The Sequel to Myst was another landmark, which makes its upcoming remake an exciting prospect for both returning and new players. Now, after not having heard much about the project since it was first announced, creator Cyan Wor ..read more
