Hello, everyone! My intention was to wait for the end of the month to post another link roundup, but weekend is coming and chances are small that many more headlines will gather until Monday. So let's see how things went in the world of games during February. Without comment:

• ‘NFTs are a scam,’ says indie game store Itch.io
• Be a hero: shun NFTs in video games

But also:

• Analysis: Up to 1,000 digital-only games will disappear when Nintendo closes its 3DS and Wii U stores
• Games, stories, and science for successful public engagement
• Mask of the Rose is a murder mystery with a living victim, and a dating sim where you can stay single

And then:

• Retrocomputing can be more than games
• ZX Spectrum at 40: a look back

Last but not least, some actual game design talk; CityCraft: ten tips for building better game cities. See you!
