14 DAY TRIAL // Andrei Dumitrescu: This weekend is the Orthodox Easter and that means I have one extra day that I can dedicate completely to gaming and reading, my two favorite activities when I get an hour or two of free time.
The ongoing third season of Game of Thrones on HBO means that I complement my television watching with the thematic mod for Crusader Kings 2, the grand strategy game from Paradox Interactive.
I tend to play the War of the Five Kings scenario and my current challenge is to keep Robb Stark alive, beat the Lannisters back when the game starts and then find a way of dealing with both the invasion from Balon and the attack of Mace from the South.
I also plan to spend some time with Victoria 2 – Heart of Darkness, trying to make the French a strong colonial power under a new Bonapartist government, with a focus on industry and a desire to battle the English.
Andrei Dobra: This extended weekend will be spent with a few rather quirky games, starting with Zeno Clash 2, the new first-person brawler from ACE Team that's just been released on the PC.
The original was a bold experiment and, while it had a short story and rather simple mechanics, it made up with the truly unique world crafted by the Chilean developer, so I'm quite interested in the next installment to see if some much-needed depth has been added to the experience.
When I am not punching foes from a first-person perspective, I'll probably enjoy some more Poker Night 2, as I still have quite a few tournaments to win before I can unlock all the different rewards offered by my competitors, like Claptrap, Brock Samson, Ash, or Sam.
There are also quite a few customization options that I can't afford, so winning tournaments and tokens is a must.
