Forest-Fire Deathgames and Buddhist Starships Lead This Week's PC Releases

Rock Paper Shotgun’s May 5–8 PC release roundup highlights a mix of music-themed titles (Wax Heads, Dead as Disco), space dogfighting spin-offs (The Black) and curious strategy titles (Amberspire, Rainbow Legends, Plentiful, Mixtape), along with Arsonate’s forest-fire “deathgame,” Dread Neighbor, Wardrum, and the Buddhist spaceship puzzler U.V.S. Nirmana. The piece blends humor and philosophy while inviting readers to vote on their favorite sim genre and notes a few ongoing in-jokes about editors and colleagues.
