What's this? Two review episodes in one month? That's right! There are so many adventure games we want to talk about that we have added another episode where we review the latest adventure games we have been playing. And what adventure games they are! We go back in time as we review two retro adventure games. Firstly Matt. Johnny and Laura discuss the text parser mystery game from Julia Minamata, The Crimson Diamond. Inspired by The Colonel's Bequest, we discuss if this game stands on its own. Then we also review survival horror game in exploration mode, Crow Country. Also heavily inspired by survival horror adventure games of the 90's but Seoirse reviews the no combat exploration mode so he discusses whether he believes if this game can, uh, survive without combat.Not to be outdone thank goodness Laura is here to review Thank Goodness You're Here as she talks about this comedic adventure game set in Yorkshire. And finally Johnny reviews two new games. Firstly he talks about devil's Hideout, the third adventure game released by Cosmic Void this year! And finally he reviews Thalassa: Edge of the Abyss, a new detective game set under the ocean. All that and much more!PreviewsCressup Gamescom Roundup Part OneCressup Gamescom Roundup Part TwoGames ReviewedDevil's Hideout Steam PageCrow Country Official SiteThank Goodness You're Here Official SiteThalassa: Edge of the AbyssThe Crimson Diamond Official SiteIf you would like to stay up to date make sure you subscribe to the podcast.

This month Seoirse is extremely busy on a podcast assignment in Croatia and is in no way lazily enjoying the sun instead. Therefore Laura had to step in along with Kieran to review five adventure games! They went on a Lynchian adventure with Grunnd, got lost while playing in, er, Lost in Play and then went fishing in Lovecraft Fishing game (yes you read that right) in Dredge. What could possibly go wrong? They also tell a story in Storyteller and went to Indonesia in A Space for the Unbound. They also somehow found the time to talk about the latest news including more cases coming in The Case of The Golden Idol, The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog which is an actual real game and they discuss the latest game from Cosmic Void which is now on Kickstarter.

Exploring the cosmological synergy between galaxy cluster and cosmic void number counts by Davide Pelliciari et al. on Sunday 16 October Galaxy clusters and cosmic voids are the most extreme objects of our Universe in terms of mass and size, tracing two opposite sides of the large-scale matter density field. By studying their abundance as a function of their mass and radius, respectively, i.e. the halo mass function (HMF) and void size function (VSF), it is possible to achieve fundamental constraints on the cosmological model. While the HMF has already been extensively exploited providing robust constraints on the main cosmological model parameters (e.g. $Omega_{rm m}$, $sigma_8$ and $S_8$), the VSF is still emerging as a viable and effective cosmological probe. Given the expected complementarity of these statistics, in this work we aim at estimating the costraining power deriving from their combination. To achieve this goal, we exploit realistic mock samples of galaxy clusters and voids extracted from state-of-the-art large hydrodynamical simulations, in the redshift range $0.2 leq z leq 1$. We perform an accurate calibration of the free parameters of the HMF and VSF models, needed to take into account the differences between the types of mass tracers used in this work and those considered in previous literature analyses. Then, we obtain constraints on $Omega_{rm m}$ and $sigma_8$ by performing a Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo analysis. We find that cluster and void counts represent powerful independent and complementary probes to test the cosmological framework. In particular, we found that the constraining power of the HMF on $Omega_{rm m}$ and $sigma_8$ improves drastically with the VSF contribution, increasing the $S_8$ constraint precision by a factor of about $60%$. arXiv: http://arxiv.org/abs/http://arxiv.org/abs/2210.07248v1
One of these ceremonial initiations is completely life changing. Together they are world changing. Today's episode is with the powerful medicine woman, Blu, who stacked a 4 day darkness retreat back-to-back with an ayahuasca retreat. This episode is a full disclosure trip report, detailing Blu's time in the boundless void of darkness and then our recent ayahuasca sit with El Dragon. The lessons, wisdom, and magic runs deep in this one, leaving no stone unturned. If you want aliens, insectoid beings and discarnate entities, well we got them for you. From undeniable experiential gnosis of the liminal, to the importance of integration, this episode shines a light on what is possible when intentionally entering these ancient rituals.

A Cosmic Void closes out it's holiday block and celebrates the new year with a movie internalizing all your bad feelings, and expressing the good ones (I'm sure that's healthy). It's a movie about busting ghosts. But most of all, it's a movie that we selected not just because it takes place at New Years Eve, but also is synergistic with what's at the theaters right now. Because that's what sequels are for, baby! We're talking about Ghostbusters II.
