This year is flying by! This month I've been having fun playing the Return to Monkey Island which I just finished and thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend you check it out if you haven’t already. As for this week we’ve got some indies and AAA titles, more than one of which is set in Ragnarok..

No Ted Lasso mode in this one. It’s the latest installment in the franchise that lets you manipulate headlines, pick your squad and meet your board. Snooze…Would have been way cooler if it was more a Mortal Kombat style game where you pit NFL coaches against each other. Parcel’s fatality move would definitely involve not answering any questions and de-sleeving a hoodie.
