RATZ INSTAGIB 2.0
ratzinstagib.com
In the tradition of Unreal
Tournament’s instagib mutator,
everyone’s got a one-hit-kill gun, and
is encouraged to hop around like the
floor’s lava. Hardly anyone plays Ratz
anymore, because most people are
uncultured bores. Please come shoot
at me so I can stop playing bots.
BUNNY HOP
THE HUNTER:
CALL OF THE WILD
callofthewild.thehunter.com
A family of deer used to munch on
grass near my house, eyeing me
suspiciously. I loved them. Their tails
were so cute. And those big eyes! I
never want to shoot a deer or a rabbit
or anything else, so I cannot explain
why I enjoy punching holes in them
in The Hunter: Call of the Wild.
DROP A BUNNY
RAINBOW SIX SIEGE
rainbow6.ubisoft.com
Siege is like Home Alone, except
there are five Kevin McCallisters, and
they all have guns. It’s all about
hijinks, like the time a spectating
teammate shouted “left!” at me, and
I turned left, unloaded into my only
living teammate’s back, and then got
tangled up in barbed wire. Exactly
like in Home Alone.
ROCKET LEAGUE
rocketleague.com
Rocket League is no longer a
‘game’ to me. It’s a ritual, a
performance, a part of life. I don’t
play it for ‘fun’. What a vulgar
thought. I’ve spent 1,000 hours
tracing circles in the grass, flying,
yelling, transcending my limitations.
Rocket League is about cars who
play hockey and soccer.
HIT THE BALL
PROJECT
WINTER
projectwinter.co
I once let two survivors freeze to
death in a blizzard because I was
convinced they were the traitors.
They were not the traitors. The
traitors were the friends standing
next to me saying things like, “I think
those guys are the traitors.” I’m very
clever and smart.
BETRAY YOUR FRIENDS
THE YAWHG
theyawhg.com
The Yawhg only has local
multiplayer, but I played it with
friends by streaming through
Discord. There’s no delay, so they
could easily tell me what choices they
wanted their characters to make.
Note that most choices lead to a life
of loneliness and misery, which, to be
honest, is just like real life.
GOLF WITH
YOUR FRIENDS
blacklightinteractive.com
It’s janky. It’s fun. It’s golf, and you
can do it with your friends. Get a big
group together in Discord (up to 12
players), find some Steam Workshop
maps, and have a stupid time,
guaranteed. So grab your worst
jumper and put a hat on your golf
ball. Don’t ask questions.
WHAT IT SAYS
SESSION
crea-turestudios.com
Unless you’re any good at its
two-stick control system, you’ll be
nothing like Tony Hawk in this
skateboarding sim. I’m not. I coast
gently into picnic tables I’m trying to
grind, and then flop all over them. Or
try to do a kickflip and dislocate my
thumbs. So it’s like me trying to
skateboard, but in a game.

I hang out in Discord
and play games with
people. Sometimes I
garden. The garden
doesn’t play any
games with me.
Maybe my tomatoes
would get more water
if they’d play Siege
with me, but all they
do is provide
nourishment.
Ridiculous.
