Sword of the Sea (Multi, XP'd on PS5) Restore a dried up ocean world to its former glory as you surf along the land on a magic sword.
From the people that brought you Abzu, The Pathless, and Journey, SotS is the latest gem in their crown of gaming goodness. If you've played any of the previous games, you already have a good idea what to expect from SotS (and should have already played it TBH 😆 )
Basically, this is Journey x Tony Hawk. You travel this world as a Wraith on …

"You must know victory-runes
if you want to know victory. Carve them
into your sword's hilt, on the blade guards
and the blades, invoking Tyr's name twice."

Today I have procrastinated by rearranging books. I have far too many for such a small house.
(Doing this reminded me of a piece by a #Palestinian academic I read recently. He has just started teaching again, but all his books have been lost or destroyed. To be without my books would be very hard for me)

The #NewYear is barely a week old and shows already that Ares will be busy. Let's not forget he is also the god of riots and rebellion:
