The gaming industry is flying forward like a motorbike without brakes, but some traditions cling to the hardware and stick around like bugs for the release of Cyberpunk 2077. One such tradition is Easter eggs. These are the same gamer trinkets - hidden jokes, inscriptions, sometimes entire quests that developers shove into the game to sit and wait for someone to find them and jump on Reddit with joy. Easter eggs keep the culture alive: they create a community, motivate players to turn the game inside out, and make you feel like you're not just a user, but a co-conspirator with those who wrote it all at three in the morning while drinking their sixth coffee. We've dug through the biggest releases of 2025 to find the most interesting Easter eggs for you.

Lost Records: Bloom & Rage is a new adventure by the creators of the iconic Life is Strange that I've been waiting for since it was first shown at The Game Awards 2023. So gg's editorial team couldn't miss this project. We can say right away that the game (or rather, its first part) leaves a pleasant impression after completion, and the adjective that we constantly want to describe it is magical. At the same time, Lost Records evokes one of the strongest feelings of nostalgia I've ever experienced while playing a game. And that's despite the fact that I never lived in the US in the 90s. But besides all the charm, the game is also not ready to answer a lot of questions that we had before the release and that arose during the passage, so there is also an element of paranormality, which contributes to the fact that I almost completed Part 1 in one go and could not put it down.

This day has arrived - Xiaomi is going to release a USB stick with artificial intelligence called Mi AI Stick. It is common knowledge that in 2025, in order to excel in the release of gadgets, you need to add artificial intelligence features to them.

Koira is a debut 2D adventure game by Belgian studio Tolima that tells the story of a man trying to survive with a small dog in a dangerous forest, while revealing several important themes. Gameplay-wise, the game is simple and requires the player to solve simple puzzles, but thanks to the magical atmosphere, short timing, and hand-drawn visuals, you can play the game in one breath. And given that the publisher is Don't Nod, which is known for games like Life is Strange, Jusant, and Lost Records, which I love, gg's editorial team couldn't pass it up, because in the first 4 months of the year, it has already become a glut of game releases. Just think of Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, Split Fiction, and Assassin's Creed Shadows. And after this hurricane of blockbusters, you want to take a break somewhere more comfortable, and projects like Koira come to the rescue.
