This week’s testing highlights: 5 games across Epic, Amazon storefronts, including fun finds like Faaast Penguin and Gravity Circuit running flawlessly. All 5 games work perfectly out of the box!

G’day!

What a week for wildlife here in North Cove, Kawau Island! We’ve had a pod of dolphins visit twice this week, and between their appearances, a group of orca showed up right at our mooring. Living on a boat has its share of compromises and challenges compared to life on land, but experiences like these make it all worthwhile. Watching these magnificent creatures from our floating home is something we never could have imagined in our previous landlocked life and honestly, we wouldn’t trade it for anything!

Unfortunately, our internet has been playing up this week, which meant I could only download and test a handful of games. I’ll do my best to catch up next week with the ones I missed, that is, if our internet decides to cooperate! Anyway, here’s what I managed to get through this week.

Looking Forward

Next week’s Epic Games giveaways look absolutely fantastic! We’re getting Samorost 3 and Amnesia: The Bunker, two games I’m genuinely excited to “test” (read: play for way too long). Meanwhile, Prime Gaming is delivering three GOG keys this weekend: Empty Shell, Fallout: New Vegas Ultimate Edition, and True Fear: Forsaken Souls Part 1. What an incredible lineup for the weekend!

We hope you’re having a wonderful time wherever you are in the world, and as always, if you’ve got any questions about these games or Junk Store in general, please don’t hesitate to reach out through our community channels.

Cheers,
