Fifteen years ago, Capcom released a game that would redefine the puzzle genre: Ghost Trick. Created by Shu Takumi, the mind behind the beloved Ace Attorney series, this inventive title offers players a unique blend of narrative and gameplay that remains unmatched in the industry. As you navigate the afterlife as Sissel, a spirit seeking to uncover the mystery of his own death, you engage with a vibrant cast of characters and clever puzzles that challenge your wit and creativity.

In an exciting turn of events for retro gaming enthusiasts, the long-lost NES puzzle game Xcavator, developed by Chris Oberth in 1991, is making a comeback. This unreleased gem is being revived through a collaboration between iam8bit and the Video Game History Foundation, offering fans a chance to own a piece of gaming history. Priced at $100, the polished cartridge edition set for release in 2025 will not only include an authentic NES cart but also a detailed manual that dives into the game’s tumultuous past and Oberth’s career.
