Miri Teixeira

Job title:

Staff Writer

Bio:

Miri's hobbies outside of gaming inform everything about their on-screen preferences: Lots of reading, irritatingly tough puzzles, and anything vaguely historical. As such, they're always on the lookout for another Disco Elysium-type read-a-thon, a Myst-like island to get lost in, or an ancient time capsule like The Forgotten City. Other than that, if anything is being described as "weird and unsettling", it's either Miri, or their new favorite indie game.

Currently Playing:

Fallout: New Vegas, Myst/Riven, Danganronpa, Story of Seasons, The Sims, Pathologic 2, Disco Elysium
