Multiplayer hide and seek.
Witch It
This is a multiplayer "prop" hide and seek game where one team plays as witches who can fly in short bursts and transform into "props" (tables, chairs, cheese, etc) to hide against the other team composed of potato throwing hunters. There are slight game format variations but for the hunters to win they have to find and KO all the witches before time runs out while the witches who have no real way to fight back but only win if time runs out. Cute concept though the graphics are intentionally poor. Multiplayer wise there were only a few lobbies open that were waiting for more players. Either the other lobbies were all full and running games or there was hardly anyone on when I checked.
Deceive Inc.
Is a spy version of the hide and seek game where everyone can camouflage themselves as NPCs in a level. Usually each spy or each team has a goal of retrieving a well guarded item and then extracting, so using the camo actually helps them traverse zones without getting NPC aggro but as all players can attack I don't see how this will always just devolve into a shooting fest. This one has sharp graphics but zero lobbies available to play in when I checked. That's what happens when you rely on other players to be the games content.

Witch it and Deceive Inc

The Penguin and Honey Bunny
TV Series that additional content to their respective franchises.
The Penguin
This crime drama is as dark as "The Batman" movie which it continues from. Here we follow Ozwald Cobb (wonderfully played by Colin Farrell) as he weasels his way from being a lowly underling to the crime boss better known as the titular Penguin. While there aren't so many action scenes the plot, acting and effects are very well done making this so far single season show really easy to recommend. You don't really have to know anything about Batman, Penguin or the movie preceding it to enjoy it either. Big thumbs up!
Honey Bunny
This is actually the second spin off for Citadel, but unlike the first one this is a prequel series set in India and they won't let you forget it with all the synth music tracks and silly Indian humor peppered through out. In it we follow a struggling actress who gets into the spy game and while there are some good action sequences in here the story itself is weaker than its peers. Combined with the fact that its all happened in the past makes it a bit of a non starter. Feel free to skip this one.
