Plenty of heroic battles and supreme storytelling await players in the Final Fantasy XIV: Stormblood expansion. Each new area slowly builds tension and atmosphere, until finally presenting the epic final battle at the end of the 4.0 storyline.
This week our Time Waster is hanging out with the gang from Peanuts in the new match-three mobile game called Snoopy Pop.
It’s a post-apocalyptic world and you are a survivor. But to stay alive, you must build a worthy road warrior vehicle to destroy everyone that stands in your way.

The main character for Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Enigma Tales is Elim Garak, the mysterious, manipulative and charming tailor and spy of the TV Show Deep Space Nine. That pretty much sets the tone for this diabolically good story.
