I know you’re probably thinking, “but food and drink is in practically every video game ever!” and you’d be right, dear reader. But we’re looking for games where food and/or drink is more than just something used to replenish your health. As tasty as Streets of Rage’s bin chicken probably is, the games in this week’s MSR need to involve food and drink in a more meaningful way.
Once again, everyone stuck to the rules. We’re on a little streak ever since theUK-based games episode… but there’s still some butting of heads, of course.
If you like this, then you may very well enjoy this week’s episode ofThe PC Gaming Weekspot. We chatted about Ubisoft’s Breath of the Wild-like,Immortals Fenyx Rising; we wondered what form theCyberpunk 2077multiplayer will take, and we got excited about the reveal of the latestHitman 3 location.

MYSTERY STEAM REVIEWS RULE BIBLE™
For those not in the know, or who need a refresher.
Colm and Matthew both bringthreeSteam reviews to the MSR arena (yes, arena), but they omit the name of the game each review is for. Their opponent must correctly guess the name of that game, including any numbers or subtitles. However, there is some leeway for things such as “Complete Edition” or “Definitive Edition.” One correct answer = one point.
While both combatants have90 secondson each Mystery Steam Review, they also have help in the form of three lifelines. These can be used at any stage during battle, and pause the 90-second timer. Each lifeline can only be used once.
Questionallows whoever is in the hot seat to ask a simple yes or no question, as long as the question isn’t, “is the name of the game [insert name of the game here]?". WhenSecond Opinionis used, the man in the warm chair will get to hear a second Steam review of the same game. And whenGenreis activated, the genre of the game is revealed to the man with the fiery arse.
