PAX East 2023: The Lord of the Rings: Gollum Preview

The demo of The Lord of the Rings: Gollum at PAX East left me feeling connected to the duality of Sméagol and Gollum in a way I did not expect.

I love stumbling on interesting games, this year at PAX East I checked out a Bachelor show style experience centered around Dracula and a strategy game featuring monsters and demons. Both were quirky and quite fun.

Was able to check out two great games in the wrestling genre at PAX East, both WrestleQuest and Wrestle Story are promising and different takes on making a wrestling RPG game.

Day 3 of PAX East was busy - from a Warhammer shooter and a roguelike dungeon crawler with cooking to an open world desert themed RPG and a kinky Japanese RPG many games were played.

Wayfinder is a fun, fast character based Online RPG that offers a ton of gameplay and story leveraging a simple fair free to play format.

The second day of PAX East was full of games including the gorgeous Strayed Lights, Steampunk RPG Sovereign Syndicate, surreal road trip Road 96: Mile 0 and dark startegy tabletop game Eschaton.

The Mageseeker: A League of Legends Story was a standout experience at PAX East and a game that will bring new experiences, and gamers, into the LoL world.

While I saw a ton of great games my first day at PAX East the terrific squad game Aliens: Dark Descent and co-op space game Void Crew were standouts.
