Hey everyone, this is Kole. The postcards for April are way late because I've been super tied up with my move. You can expect them in a little bit. I'm very sorry about the delay, and I hope you understand.

Watch Out for Fireballs! 99: Amnesia: The Dark Descent
Gary Butterfield and Kole Ross hide in a corner while Amnesia: The Dark Descent happens.This game won our Spring Survival Horror poll, and for good reason. Frictional mastered the "first person, pursuit-based exploration horror" genre, and created a game that's so scary that a lot of people can't even play it. Listen in, especially if you're one of those people.LINKS OF NOTE:[Danse Macabre](en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danse_Macabre_...

Abject Suffering 86: Bad Rats: The Rats' Revenge
