Eurogamer's regular roundup of what the team has been playing returns with a mix of small domestic surprises and pure gaming joy. This instalment ranges from an unexpected take on a familiar snack to parenting-versus-play anecdotes, a late-game realisation and one writer's sudden enthusiasm for mech battles.

  • Victoria turns an ordinary food memory into a story that now makes her view a common mess-hall biscuit differently, blending nostalgia with a fresh, odd perspective.
  • Tom describes the juggling act of keeping a child entertained through half-term while trying to carve out even a little time for play, producing both frustrating moments and warm wins.
  • Bertie confesses to missing an obvious element in a game or update, the kind of oversight that lands you catching up in a hurry and re-evaluating what you thought you knew.
  • Will unexpectedly sells mech combat; his piece highlights why piloting giant robots can be as tactical as it is cathartic, and why chaotic skirmishes are so satisfying.

For short, human snapshots of the latest in staff gaming habits — equal parts humour and insight — the column is an easy, entertaining read.
