Wordle gives you six rows of five boxes each day, and you’ll need to work out which secret five-letter word is hiding inside them to keep up your winning streak.
You should start with a strong word (opens in new tab) like ARISE, or any other word that contains a good mix of common consonants and multiple vowels. You’ll also want to avoid starting words with repeating letters, as you’re wasting the chance to potentially eliminate or confirm an extra letter. Once you hit Enter, you’ll see which ones you’ve got right or wrong. If a box turns ⬛️, it means that letter isn’t in the secret word at all. 🟨 means the letter is in the word, but not in that position. 🟩 means you’ve got the right letter in the right spot.
You’ll want your next guess to compliment the first, using another “good” word to cover any common letters you might have missed last time while also trying to avoid any letter you now know for a fact isn’t present in today’s answer. After that, it’s simply a case of using what you’ve learned to narrow your guesses down to the correct word. You have six tries in total and can only use real words and don’t forget letters can repeat too (eg: BOOKS).

A game developer and software modder has done what Microsoft has steadfastly refused to do for years: Add a layers function to Microsoft Paint (opens in new tab). That’s right, you can now arrange separate parts of a drawing into separate groups and interact with them separately. What a concept! You can get mspaintcompanion free on itch.io (opens in new tab), even.

The mod is a creation of 17-year-old game developer Talon Zane, and is available along with its source code for free. It’s a beautiful concept as an update to the 38 year old app, and more than anything just kind of an obvious upgrade that I think we all agree is confusing on Microsoft’s part.
“That’s right, you can now pile on as many layers as you need to perfect your silly little doodles,” says Zane, “no longer will you be confined to creating simple, one-layered monstrosities!” A lovely thing for myself, as I am a simple, one-layered monstrosity and need all the uniqueness I can get.
At this point there is someone reading this who does not know why layers are important. Why are layers important? Well, they’re a standard of every major graphic design program for the last 20 years because they’re just so useful. You can perfect one part of a piece of art, then move to others without risking disruption to your already-completed bits. You can put a sketch on one layer and create the final piece over it, or trace a reference image—among many, many other uses.
“mspaintcompanion may not be as functionally reliable as expected,” warns Zane, “Severe jank will be fixed whenever possible.”
Thank you Talon Zane, for ensuring that ms paint, a reliable and stalwart program of the windows ecosystem which I hope will never go away nor become overcomplicated and annoying. Remember that time (opens in new tab) they were going to take it away? That made me real sad and I didn’t like it.
Talon Zane is also a budding game developer. If you’d like to support Talon Zane’s work in the future, you can do so on his Patreon (opens in new tab). You can also follow him on Twitter (opens in new tab).

Stuck in front of one of the Star Wars Jedi: Survivor (opens in new tab) green laser walls? I was you once—a younger, less capable Cal Kestis wondering what the heck is up with these weird laser gate things and where I can find the gadget to shut them off.
Well, it’s not that simple. Like pretty much every type of door, barrier, or junk blocking your path in Jedi: Survivor, getting through green laser walls requires an ability earned by playing through the story. The very first green wall you encounter can actually be shut down by mind-tricking a stormtrooper into opening it for you, but that’s a one-time deal. Every other green wall will appear as red on your map.
Eventually, Cal learns how to dash straight through them, unlocking a key traversal move for the rest of the game. Here’s how to get it.
How to get through green laser walls in Jedi: Survivor
About halfway through the main story, you’ll get a mission to return to Jedha toconsult with Master Cordova. There, Cere gives Cal and Merrin the task of evacuating an ally safehouse before the Empire finds it. This unlocks access to the open desert area of Jedha, which you can optionally explore on your way to the next waypoint.
This is a fairly long, exceptionally cool level that gets even more fun once you learn to air dash midway through. Eventually Cal and Merrin have a standoff with a gigantic octopus drill, and it’s around this encounter that Merrin gives you a medallion that lets you pass through green laser walls by air dashing. Congratulations, green laser walls are now green laser gates, and approximately half of Koboh’s locked areas are now open to you.
Keep in mind that you can only air dash once, so you still have to be in range of a green gate to push your way through it. Moving through a green gate also resets Cal’s jump and dash midair, letting him jump one more time before touching the floor (or chain into another green gate).

The Warhammer 40,000 universe is one of the bleakest sci-fi settings ever conceived. In the crumbling, fascist empire of man, beset on all sides by enemies, cosmic horrors, and literal daemons, it’s bad enough being a 10 foot super soldier—imagine just being a regular person.
Well, that’s essentially the premise of Imperium Maledictum, the latest Warhammer RPG from publisher Cubicle 7. Acting as a spiritual successor to the classic Dark Heresy, it casts players as mere cogs in the great machine that is the Imperium—thieves, apprentices, clerks, acolytes, and other lower-ranking fodder. As these squishy underdogs, they’re tasked by their aloof and powerful patrons with important missions, including everything from rooting out heresy, to pulling off daring heists, to investigating murders.
Imperial march
(opens in new tab)
Dark Heresy
The original Dark Heresy, in which you played as hapless agents of the Inquisition, was created by Games Workshop itself in 2008, though it was given scant support until it was handed over to tabletop giant Fantasy Flight Games, who released a second edition in 2014. It’s a beloved classic, though like Imperium Maledictum it was a dense and intimidating game.
The result is a sort of underdog sci-fi noir, where much of the drama is intended to arise from your interactions with the key factions of the Imperium. Where Dark Heresy was concerned primarily with the Inquisition, here they’re just one of many organisations you might be working for, alongside, or against—from the cyborg engineers of the Adeptus Mechanicus, to the psychic navigators of the Astra Telepathica, to the void-farers of the Imperial Navy.
Hailing from one of these factions, player character options cover a huge range of Warhammer 40,000 archetypes. Though you’ll always be low-ranking and fairly weak to start out, it’s still possible to fill roles as exotic as psyker, pariah, Sister of Battle in training, or death cult assassin. The character creation and advancement rules are flexible enough, in fact, to be stretched in almost any direction you can imagine, within the confines of being a (human) Imperial citizen.
And that kind of sums up the intent of the game—what it’s trying to do with this core book is cover the full breadth of human society in Warhammer 40,000, in pretty exhaustive detail. It’s astonishingly comprehensive—its almost 100 page breakdown of the lore of the Imperium and the game’s specific setting, the Macharian sector, is about as complete a primer as you could imagine. The flip side is this is a dense tome, one that can be intimidating just to read your way through, let alone use to play a game. Dedicated Warhammer 40,000 fans who love having all the information at their fingertips are well-served, but those less familiar with the setting, or who simply prefer less homework in their RPGs, will likely feel overwhelmed.
Forbidden knowledge
(opens in new tab)
Wrath & Glory
This isn’t Cubicle 7’s first Warhammer 40,000 TTRPG—it also publishes Wrath & Glory. This more heroic take on the setting has a lighter, more action-packed system that allows you to play the heroes of the setting, such as Space Marines, Inquisitors, and Rogue Traders. If Imperium Maledictum sounds a bit too grim for you, this might be your game.
It’s a similar situation with the game’s rules set. Building on the core of Dark Heresy’s d100 system, it incorporates some clever modern streamlining into the established foundation of percentile rolls and characteristics derived from the Warhammer 40,000 wargame. But it’s still a very crunchy system, with a lot of moving parts. Those who enjoy their RPGs full of detail, with an answer for every situation and a mechanic to go with every theme will feel at home, but I suspect many will struggle to keep up with the countless modifiers and subsystems. For example: in combat, players have 22 generic actions they can take on top of any character-specific abilities or gear they may have—if that’s not a recipe for analysis paralysis, I don’t know what is.
Wading through these complexities is made more difficult by the book’s strange layout of sections. It’s 150 pages before you reach the core rules, for example. You’re reading about how psychic powers work and what effects different weapons have before you know how a basic roll works. Superiority, a system of bonuses that can be gained in combat, is explained before any of the combat rules they affect.
Wrestling over 350 pages of Warhammer together into a usable book is a tricky task, but Imperium Maledictum does feel notably chaotic even compared to Cubicle 7’s other games set in Games Workshop’s universes. And with no index, it could be a nightmare finding the rule you want at the table during a tense moment.
Unfortunately that sense of chaos extends to several major editing issues as well. While the frequent spelling errors and formatting inconsistencies are just annoying, a few mistakes are harder to work around—such as an important table missing from the character creation section. It should be noted, however, that there is still time for these errors to be fixed—while the PDF of the game is currently available, the print version won’t be releasing until the winter, effectively making this a sort of early access period. Updates to the PDF should be released over the coming months, hopefully fixing these mistakes before they’re immortalised in paper—and digital purchasers will get those updates for free, of course.
Deadly dystopia
(opens in new tab)
While it does have rough edges in its current form, what Imperium Maledictum absolutely nails is the atmosphere of the Warhammer 40,000 setting. This is Games Workshop’s galaxy at its most bleak and oppressive, and your role as those close to the bottom of the ladder casts familiar elements in a terrifying new light. On the battlefields of the wargame, a unit of Plaguebearers is a routine strategic obstacle—in Imperium Maledictum, just one such daemon could tear right through your party and render even the survivors mutated or insane.
Brutal critical hit tables make even just fighting your fellow man a dangerous prospect—it only takes one unlucky roll to lose a limb or even your life. And Emperor forbid a psyker push their powers too far—a psychic power gone wrong can cause a rain of blood, cost you your soul as a daemon takes over your body, or simply make you explode, taking out you and everyone around you. Expendable Fate points let you cheat death a handful of times, but no one’s luck lasts forever.
Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay
Currently in its 4th edition, also published by Cubicle 7, Warhammer Fantasy Roleplay is essentially the Old World equivalent of Imperium Maledictum. Playing as lowly rat catchers, merchants, town guards, and the like, you struggle to try and survive a world full of monsters, disease, and (allegedly) Skaven.
That doesn’t mean playing the game is a miserable experience—far from it. For players with the right mix of determination and a dark sense of humour, the joy of Imperium Maledictum is in finding ways to succeed despite the terrible odds. Cunning parties will never fight fair, employing every dirty trick and contrived plan they can to survive. In this game’s predecessor, Dark Heresy, I once played in a session where we were expected to battle a monstrous Bloodletter; instead of fighting it head-on and meeting a pretty certain end, we spent an entire combat finding a way to trick it into falling off the roof of a 30 storey building. Imperium Maledictum feels primed for the same sort of triumphant anecdotes—and, as in videogames like Dark Souls, when the odds are stacked against you, victory tastes so much sweeter.
Feeling superior
(opens in new tab)
The game even codifies this style of play. The new Superiority system is a set of rules for gaining advantages in a fight by doing your homework—rewarding investigating your enemy, discovering their strengths and weaknesses, and tipping circumstances subtly in your favour with direct bonuses in the resulting battle. It’s a clever addition, because it allows a well-prepared party moments of real power, a relief from always feeling like the underdog—but at the same time, it makes those times where you get surprised or ambushed and can’t claim those buffs even more frightening.
And for GMs used to writing their own adventures, the book provides a wonderfully expansive amount of adventure hooks, locations, and characters to fuel them. The current status quo of the Warhammer 40,000 universe—the Imperium split in half and pitched into confusion and chaos by a daemonic rift in space—is a perfect stage for adventure. Imperium Maledictum doesn’t waste a drop of that potential as it lays out the countless strange and dangerous happenings across the Macharian sector. In trying to cover possible campaigns for all nine of the wildly different factions, in some ways it stretches itself too far, but no one could argue that the material here is too thin. Based on Cubicle 7’s past form, GMs who prefer pre-written campaigns will be well-served, too—expect loads of adventures to come out, beginning with an Imperium Maledictum starter set due later this year.
For better and worse, this is a Warhammer 40,000 RPG of pure excess. It’s just a lot of everything—rules for every situation, endless lore, countless possible characters, a million adventure possibilities. It won’t be to everyone’s tastes—even seasoned Dungeons & Dragons players and GMs may feel intimidated by what’s on offer here. But for those who breathe lore and eat crunchy rules for breakfast, this is as expansive and genuinely grimdark as Warhammer roleplaying gets.

That was a close one.

Wordle help: 3 tips for beating Wordle every day
A good starting word can be the difference between victory and defeat with the daily puzzle, but once you’ve got the basics, it’s much easier to nail down those Wordle wins. And as there’s nothing quite like a small victory to set you up for the rest of the day, here are a few tips to help set you on the right path:
A good opening guess should contain a mix of unique consonants and vowels.
Narrow down the pool of letters quickly with a tactical second guess.
Watch out for letters appearing more than once in the answer.
There’s no racing against the clock with Wordle so you don’t need to rush for the answer. Treating the game like a casual newspaper crossword can be a good tactic; that way, you can come back to it later if you’re coming up blank. Stepping away for a while might mean the difference between a win and a line of grey squares.

A blog post (opens in new tab) earlier this week incorrectly said that you won’t be able to ride a mount in Diablo 4 until you finish the main questline, a mistake that confused players and press alike.
Mounts have been a major feature in Diablo 4 from the beginning—they’re even a pre-order bonus—but leaked footage from the alpha and the endgame beta, as well as some datamined info, suggest that the requirement to unlock them was changed a few times before the action RPG recently went gold (opens in new tab).
Maybe that’s why the official post said you had to complete the main questline with one character to permanently unlock mounts for your account. Blizzard revised that paragraph after news outlets and players started asking it to clarify, but not until after Kotaku had reported on it, which led to some confusion among readers. Diablo 4 general manager Rod Fergusson (opens in new tab) and Blizzard president Mike Ybarra (opens in new tab) also clarified the situation on Twitter—Ybarra specifically noted that Kotaku “didn’t get it wrong,” but had just reported on an incorrect blog post.
The post now says that you need to complete a questline within the main story campaign to unlock mounts and their customization options for all your characters.
Clarifying, @Kotaku and others didn’t get it wrong. They reported on the original blog, and we corrected it. Our bad and I didn’t know the original blog was confusing and changed. Didn’t mean to call anyone out. I’ll delete the tweet in a bit once folks see this.April 27, 2023

During the beta weekends last month, some players had mount skins drop (opens in new tab) from unique dungeon enemies, like the Butcher (opens in new tab). The text in the menus for the skins said that you need to finish the Donan’s Favor quest to gain access to mounts. It’s unclear when that quest appears, but in the beta there were NPC stable masters as early as Kyovashad in the Fractured Peaks.
In the upcoming “server slam” beta (opens in new tab), you’ll earn a mount trophy for reaching the level 20 cap and defeating the world boss, Ashava. Trophies will be one of many customization options for mounts in the final game when it launches on June 6. There will also be unique dismount attacks for each class if Blizzard hasn’t changed its mind since this 2019 Diablo 4 BlizzCon panel (opens in new tab).

He’s finished the modded run of the game he began last month (opens in new tab) in which every single enemy—from the lowliest rat to the Elden Beast—was replaced with Malenia, the game’s toughest boss.
Fighting Malenia is nothing new to LMSH. The legendary player made his name in the Elden Ring community by helping other players overcome her, manifesting like some kind of jar-clad angel of death to lay waste to the boss thousands of times (opens in new tab). But that was just one Malenia. The Malenia. You’d imagine even he would struggle with a roiling sea of angry Melaniae.
Took about 10 hours and probably more deaths than I’d like to admit but I finally finished the Everything is Malenia Run! It was as fun as it was painful… No leveling vigor was a mistake ;-; #ELDENRING pic.twitter.com/VKUI5wb4auApril 26, 2023

Apparently not! Over the course of ten (10!) hours and “probably more deaths” than he’d care to admit, LMSH made mincemeat of Malenia mode, defeating Elden Malenia—the mod’s version of Elden Ring’s last boss—on his first attempt during his fifth and final stream last Tuesday.
LMSH made things even harder for himself by imposing a rule that forbade him from levelling up Vigor, Elden Ring’s HP-governing stat, and by only wearing his now-famous costume of a jar on his head and no other armour at all. That meant he had to play pretty much flawlessly to stand any chance of progressing, evading every attack from every Malenia across the entire game. While other players have gotten through an “all Malenia” run (opens in new tab) of Elden Ring before, I’m not sure any of them made it quite as absurdly difficult for themselves as LMSH.
If anything, the run was tougher on LMSH’s computer than it was on the man himself. Kotaku (opens in new tab) notes that his RTX 4080-equipped rig was prone to choking on the mod, finding itself unable to handle the pressure of rendering so many resplendent Malenias at once. During his third stream (opens in new tab), he had to knock his settings down to potato mode to keep the stream going.
If you fancy taking on the challenge yourself, you can do it using the Elden Ring Item and Enemy Randomiser mod (opens in new tab). But if you just want to tag along for the ride, you can find all five of Let Me Solo Her’s Elden Ring but Everything is Malenia streams over on his YouTube channel (opens in new tab). Most of them clock in at around two hours or so, but the final one—mostly a succession of boss fights—only lasted around 55 minutes. “Sorry the stream was pretty short,” LMSH told viewers at its conclusion, “But, uh, I didn’t expect it to be that easy”.

Anticipation for news on Starfield (opens in new tab) is white-hot, and this hasn’t been helped by the many delays the game has had. Everyone’s jonesing to get their Skyrim in space on, but maybe some of us are Jonesing too much. Eagle-eyed PCG reader Jean Carrasquillo noticed, when googling the game’s name, something suspicious: The top result is a sponsored link to a Starfield open beta that promises you can “play now.”
Needless to say, the wise Jean did not click on this link and instead dropped us a line. Because it’s absolutely bogus, a scammy scam from the scammiest scamsters. There is no Starfield open beta. If there was, it would be plastered across every gaming website and billboard you could see.
The link connects to a website called bizongrow dot com (don’t go there!) which redirects users to a website called “starfięld dot com” (notice the accented e) where there’s a “demo” button. Definitely do not go to these sites and do not press that demo button, because it will begin running an executable file on your PC that is not a Starfield beta but doubtless contains a ton of unidentified malware.
This bizongrow website was registered in early April (opens in new tab) and appears to have been live for around a week, with various redditors either noticing (opens in new tab) or falling for the scam (opens in new tab) and warning their fellow space hopefuls to avoid it. Looking into bizongrow dot com, it claims to be an advertising company, but that’s clearly just some sort of front. The fake Starfield site was registered on 21 April and, while the registrant’s info has been withheld “for privacy purposes” the mailing address given is Reykjavik. I’m pretty sure Bethesda doesn’t have an Icelandic branch yet.
The malicious link has been reported to Google already so hopefully it’ll disappear before long, but seriously: Come on people. There is no free Starfield open beta and the nasty types know you’d love one.

Wordle gives you six rows of five boxes each day, and it’s your job to work out which five-letter word is hiding by eliminating or confirming the letters it contains.
Starting with a strong word (opens in new tab) like LEASH—something containing multiple vowels, common consonants, and no repeat letters—is a good place to start. Once you hit Enter, the boxes will show you which letters you’ve got right or wrong. If a box turns ⬛️, it means that letter isn’t in the secret word at all. 🟨 means the letter is in the word, but not in that position. 🟩 means you’ve got the right letter in the right spot.
Your second go should compliment the starting word, using another “good” guess to cover any common letters you missed last time while also trying to avoid any letter you now know for a fact isn’t present in today’s answer. After that, it’s just a case of using what you’ve learned to narrow your guesses down to the right word. You have six tries in total and can only use real words (so no filling the boxes with EEEEE to see if there’s an E). Don’t forget letters can repeat too (ex: BOOKS).

Originally, Wordle was dreamed up by software engineer Josh Wardle (opens in new tab), as a surprise for his partner who loves word games. From there it spread to his family, and finally got released to the public. The word puzzle game has since inspired tons of games like Wordle (opens in new tab), refocusing the daily gimmick around music or math or geography. It wasn’t long before Wordle became so popular it was sold to the New York Times for seven figures (opens in new tab). Surely it’s only a matter of time before we all solely communicate in tricolor boxes.
