Rogue One: A Star Wars Story - Magic: the Gathering Set
I absolutely adore Rogue One. I remember when I saw it in theaters and the entire range of emotions I felt as the plot unfolded. I rooted for Jyn as fate called her to take a stand, I was thrilled to see series main stays cameo throughout the movie, I was awed by the battle and fight sequences and saddened when I realized the end that was coming for the heroes.

Introducing Children to Role-Playing Games
There are many ways to introduce children to role-playing games (RPG) for tabletop such as Dungeons and Dragons (DND) and Pathfinder. There are cute RPG board games out there that have been reviewed online that are fantastic for children, just search “children + rpg” with Google. However, I ended up introducing my two young nieces to DND on a whim with just a couple of dice and our imagination.

PalWorld Doesn't Sit Right With Me
PalWorld leaves a sour taste in my mouth. There, I said it. Listen, I think that Nintendo are the bad guys in most situations. They shut down ROM creators who make some of the best takes on Pokemon games, they crank out uninspired mainline Pokemon games year after year, they make it difficult—even impossible sometimes—to acquire their best games from their golden age legally or cost-effectively, and they keep remaking Kanto. I won’t get on PalWorld’s case for being uncreative in a lot of their Pal designs. A lot of them are uncreative, I agree, and several of them are derivative of vastly superior Pokemon designs. The game was marketed as “Pokemon With Guns.” It’s going to happen a lot.

How my moldy scanner exposed an exciting (and troubling) future of Biodigital Convergence
One afternoon, a few years back, an uneasy aroma of musty cheese wafted from an unlikely source in my office — the flatbed scanner. Upon investigation, I discovered a thick, crusty, and moldy residue smeared across its transparent scanning bed, accompanied by an unmistakable odor. But I wasn’t that astonished by this revelation, as it turned out to be a peculiar side-effect resulting from a research project I had conducted a few days earlier.

When Computer “Bugs” Become Real
It’s likely that you have come across the term “glitch”, in the context of computer games. They are essentially small coding errors where the algorithm running a video game doesn’t quite function as intended. One of the most famous glitch effects in the gaming world is the Minus World glitch from Super Mario Bros. When a player executes a specific jumping manoeuvre near the end of world 1–2, a slight error in the game’s collision detection algorithm triggers a chain of unintended scenarios. The glitch leads to the loading of an unintended world — the Minus World — and the creation of a visual pathway, like an extra green pipe in the “warp zone,” to access this new world.
