Less jumping in THE MURDER OF SONIC THE HEDGEHOG
APRIL FOOL'S SLAY

Sonic has been murdered—well, not really—and it’s up to Tails, I guess, to finger the suspect from a cast of his anthropomorphic mates. There’s Amy and Knuckles—you’ve probably heard of them. There’s the infamously edgy Shadow, here without his trademark arsenal of guns. And while I don’t know the others, I like them after playing this. This is an affectionate visual novel that redeems an oft-maligned band of mascots.

It’s also, of course, a joke game—an exceedingly polished one—released on April 1, for free, on Steam. Set aboard a luxury train where Amy Rose has organized a murder mystery party, you have to solve the murder of Sonic the Hedgehog— who has really been attacked and rendered unconscious—by examining clues in each train carriage, and interrogating such suspects as Knuckles and Rouge the Bat.

Special Report- Stacked Deck - Monster Train, a deckbuilding roguelike that firmly entrenched itself as the crown prince to the kingly Slay the Spire back in 2020, was the kind of smash success you might call Champagne Big.

Monster Train, a deckbuilding roguelike that firmly entrenched itself as the crown prince to the kingly Slay the Spire back in 2020, was the kind of smash success you might call Champagne Big. Four years later, its successor Inkbound’s launch from Early Access was looking more like Sandwich Big.I’m not just saying that because of the mountain of lamb and eggplants I ate while meeting with developer Shiny Shoe over lunch, to feel out what the aftermath of releasing a game looks like in 2024. I mean, have I thought about that sandwich every day since? Yes. But also, the indie team talked frankly about the struggle of luring Monster Train’s audience on board for its next game.
