I just got The Blackout Club and should be around for an hour or two on Saturday afternoon. When would be best? Would 3pm or 4pm UK time be okay? Who else is in?

AM

not in.

But I look forward to hearing what you think of the game.

If anyone wants to snap up (https://store.steampowered.com/app/572160/Golf_for_Workgroups/) Golf For Workgroups for 2,50€ tho I'd be happy to play a few rounds.

Either of those is fine for me. Whatever works best.

Let's go for 4pm UK time then. There's a slim chance I may have to bow out (my dad-in-law is ill and we may have to go see him), but I'd let you know if that happens.

Wow. Thats quite a large amount of games you got through.

I picked up Cultist Simulator in GoG's Winter Sale, and I think it definitely belongs on my list of titles from 2018 I can recommend others try out.

So that makes my current "Good titles of 2018" list (in alphabetical order):

Cultist Simulator
Dead Cells
DRAGON BALL FighterZ

Two 2018 titles that don't make the list are:

Subnautica - It needs a bunch of mods to be worth about half the asking price for me
Forged Battallion - The devs jumped ship on this before it left Early Access to work on a Conan RTS, which they apparently put on the back burner the second they were allowed to work on C&C Remastered...
