We've reached the very last day of our RPS Advent Calendar for this year! That means that behind this door is our actual Game Of The Year. The GOTYest goat for 2022. Unfortunately, behind the door are also a lot of bats, ghosts, zombies, oh man that looks like a giant praying mantis I think? How on earth are we going to get through all this?
]]>Behind today's RPS Advent Calendar door is a game that was only just beaten into second place. Luckily, after said beating it can just pop back to life at the last Site Of Grace it visited and then dive back into the fray again.
]]>For day 22 of our RPS Advent Calendar, we're going to make a break for it. Let's escape our enforced drudgery and make a new life for ourselves, out on the outer reaches of space in a lawless space station where we can be anything we want!
]]>If you want to open today's door on the RPS Advent Calendar you're going to have to jump and pull on the handle, or scratch on the door until someone comes to open it for me. Unfortunately, today you don't have opposable thumbs - but you're way better at climbing, which is going to come in useful.
]]>Exercise caution when opening door number 20 on the RPS Advent Calendar, because it's an uncaring world of manual labour in space out there. If you open the door wrong you could cause a huge explosion that kills you - but to mitigate that risk you can spend money buying an Official Safe Door Opener. Don't worry, you can just work more to pay it off.
]]>On the nineteenth day of Christmas my true love gave to me a partridge in a pear tree a little fox with a can-do attitude. Sadly, he doesn't speak the same language as me.
On the eighteenth day of our Advent Calendar you find yourself curiously, suddenly alone. A fog rolled through town and suddenly everyone has disappeared. Oh, wait, that looks like a bunch of school kids over there, maybe they'll hel- OH GOD OH NO.
]]>For day 17 of the RPS Advent Calendar this year, you're feeling the need - the need for speed. There's a beautiful load of levels to leap through out there, and if you can take out all the enemies in your way then so much the better.
]]>Day 16 of the RPS Advent Calendar and you can hear the roar of the oil refineries at night as you sleep. You walk the streets of your home town and consider how much and how little has changed. Should you have even come back?
]]>On the fifteenth day of the RPS Advent Calendar you open the door with some trepidation, because you've heard there's a strange series of crimes and murders on the other side. But you needn't have worried, because all the weirdo miscreants involved seem to be frozen in time for the moment.
]]>Two weeks are down on the RPS Advent Calendar this year, and you've started to feel the call to adventure again. You thought that you'd rolled up your treasure map for good, and swabbed your last deck, but it seems like the wind is here to fill your sales once more...
]]>Today we reach day 13 of the RPS Advent Calendar. This is unlucky for some, but not for a group of cool, fast movin', psyche-battlin' schoolkids, who spend a lot of time on extra curricular activities and not enough time getting their talking cat to shut up.
]]>In this work-a-day world it can be difficult to find moments of satisfaction. Well, let the twelfth game on the RPS Advent Calendar deliver a concentrated pressure hose of satisfaction right onto your dirty driveway
]]>Welcome to day 11 of the RPS Advent Calendar! We're going to have a great time: singing songs by the fire, kayaking in the lake, and definitely none of the camp counselors are going to be brutally murdered by monsters!
]]>Religion is the opiate of the masses, I've heard tell. Some religions are more cute than others, though. At least, on the face of it they are. I was pretty on board at the start, but I'm not sure about the glowing eyes and sleeping in a tent and eating grass. Plus the leader keeps going into the forest and comes back covered in blood.
]]>Roll three dice and get all 3s! Yeah! Worm eyes! That must mean it's day 9 of the RPS Advent Calendar. But wait a second. There's something funny about your dice. You cheatin' me? Oh, hang on, they're just pizza dice. Well in that case.
]]>I know it's day eight of the RPS Advent Calendar, but there's no time for that. A serial killer is stalking the streets of Kamurocho, and you're the only detective who can solve the case!
]]>A week of Advent Calendar posts already! Time flies when you're having fun, but it also flies when you're very small and have to survive in garden that's suddenly the size of a forest. Mind the spiders.
]]>Today's game on the RPS Advent Calendar is a story that spans generations, but you'll need plenty of ink and paper to get it down. How's your handwriting? Good, is it? Can you read Latin?
]]>If you want to know what the fifth game is in the Advent Calendar you're going to have to open a web broswer and search for a name, date, and specific location, using only this pixelart rendering of a piece of real-world art.
]]>It's the fourth day of the RPS Advent Calendar and today it's rainy. But it's nice rainy - relaxing. There's a purring cat. You've got a brew on, and nothing in particular planned. Maybe you'll recatalogue your rustling, living inventory.
]]>Welcome to day three of the RPS Christmas Advent Calendar. Well, I say day. Actually it's night, but there's surely nothing to hurt us in this quaint old town. Wait. Did you hear that? Is there... is there something behind us? I swear it sounds like something is following us. I don't like the sound of that rattling at all. Do you have a map? Oh my god you don't have a map?
]]>This time of year can be stressful, but it's only the second day of December and already it seems you can't quite control your face as you'd like to. Perhaps you can ask someone to arrange it into the right emotions for you...?
]]>The RPS Advent Calendar is upon us, but as we open the first door of our end of year countdown, I get the feeling something terrible is waiting on the other side. I can hear the clanking of metal boots in the distance, accompanied by laser fire and the gurgle of orc laughter rubbed raw by some nasty disease. Dare we enter and embrace the chaos lying within?
]]>*Deep breath* "It's CHRIIIIIIIIISSSSSTMAAAAAAAAAAS!" We emerged, blinking, into 2022 and, whaddaya know? It was a good year for games. We're feeling extra festive and are raring to count down our games of the year in traditional style. Tear back the little windows and stuff your face with The RPS Advent Calendar 2022!
