This weekend, many gamers have discovered new hobbies. Mark is determined to finish Assassin's Creed 3, a game he had previously abandoned.

Callum plans to continue his horror game marathon, including the new Haunted Paws demo and Rolla, a unique city-building game.
Jeremy will be playing Castlevania: Belmont's Curse, a game he enjoys despite its divisive fanbase. Ollie is excited to introduce his brother to Factorio, a game he considers his favorite. Edwin, however, has a different goal - to create his own text adventure game. Julian is also playing something secret, but promises to play Dreadline Express when he's not participating in a book club reading of SAS: Rogue Heroes.
