His homework was easy enough that he could complete it on the bus or in class, which allowed him to maximize the time he spent gaming. After school, he would often play video games for hours with his cousin and a small group of close friends before going home for dinner. Then he would head to the den and play on the family computer for a few more hours before bed. When his parents complained, he told them it was no different from their habit of watching TV every night. Besides, he was doing his homework and getting good grades — what more did they want? They relented.
Luigi's Mansion 3 video game review - The Washington Post
Mario may be the most recognizable mascot in gaming but I've long been partial to his brother Luigi, probably because he seems like the more conflicted of the two. Whereas Mario is short, round and confident, Luigi is lanky and bumbling — qualities dear to my heart. Yet, despite my affinity for the younger brother — one of my go-to's in "Mario Kart" — I haven't settled my thumbs around a "Luigi's Mansion" game until recently. I never had a GameCube, for which the original was a launch title, nor the leisure to try its sequel, "Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon" on the 3DS. Having arrived late to the party, it's taken me some time to acclimate to the ghostbusting and puzzle solving for which the series is known. Although I still find the controls a tad awkward, "Luigi's Mansion 3" strikes me as a diverting, fall treat.
In the middle of the night, Luigi awakens to the scream of Princess Peach. Shivering with fear, he gets out of bed and goes into the hallway where his surroundings have undergone quite the metamorphosis. Wilted, thorny looking plants lay on the hallway tables along with candles and piles of skulls. Door frames and picture frames are askew and the walls are drably colored and stained with age.

Kine turns the drama of aspiring musicians into a puzzle game - The Verge
It can be difficult to find time to finish a video game, especially if you only have a few hours a week to play. In our biweekly column Short Play , we suggest video games that can be started and finished in a weekend.
In the simplest terms, Kine is a puzzle game in which you try to move a block through a maze to a specific point. The block moves one space at a time by rotating. Say the block is a cube and the side facing up is red while the rest of it is white. In order for the block to move to the right, it tilts to the right until it lands in the space, putting the red face on the right side of the cube rather than the top. If it moves one more space to the right, that red face would now be on the bottom. What complicates your movement through the maze, though, is that you are attempting to navigate through it with things that take up more than one space. On top of that, they can change their shape. (If you're finding that hard to follow, check out the trailer below.)
