Solve puzzles to discover the truth of Ciudadela and grant your father’s dying wish in this first-person adventure puzzle game. 

Buenos Aires, Argentina, 27 Jan. 2026 | Puzzle solvers seeking adventure and drama have a new obsession! Kronos Interactive is proud to announce Echoes From Ciudadela, their debut indie adventure game featuring engaging puzzles and a story laced with secrets. A demo of the game is coming soon to Steam.

A Dying Wish Must Be Fulfilled 
Dive into this first-person narrative as Katari, an ambitious adventurer following the trail of his deceased father. After uncovering his father’s journal, Katari is led to a sealed mountain known as Ciudadela. Along the way, Katari’s journey is obstructed by intricate puzzles inspired by historic inventions. Use your observation, experimentation, and ingenuity to connect these ancient machines and solve the mystery of your father’s dying wish. 

Puzzles Protecting Centuries Of Civilization

Each puzzle is crafted to challenge your spatial awareness, timing, and experimentation. Utilize Katari’s Balearic Sling, a multifunctional tool, to assist you on your adventure. You can aim, charge, and release shots to hit distant targets, break fragile seals, and ricochet projectiles around corners. As your journey progresses, upgrades will expand the sling’s capabilities, allowing deeper interaction with the environment and the mountain’s forgotten technologies. When puzzles grow more challenging, your father’s journal serves as a crucial guide, offering clues and insights. New entries will be revealed with each puzzle you solve, helping you understand more about this lost civilization. If you’re feeling stuck, a handy ‘hint’ feature is available, as well as dialogue prompts to guide you towards your goal. 

A Story Sewn With Secrets    

Ciudadela has been asleep for centuries. Its artifacts and advanced technologies have remained untouched, waiting for you to uncover what came before–and what follows. Explore ancient relics, awaken forgotten technology, and piece together the history of a civilization that evolved beyond the constraints of time. From sweeping Patagonian vistas to vast sci-fi caverns, Ciudadela invites exploration at every turn. Its underground caverns shift and evolve from level to level, immersing players in echoes of centuries past. Along the way, you’ll recover legendary core artifacts forged by history’s greatest minds: Archimedes’ Drill, Da Vinci’s Crossbow, and Galileo’s Observation of the Moons. Reactivate long-dormant machines and uncover the secrets buried deep within the mountain.

Gameplay Features:

• Breathtaking Scenes: Adventure through Patagonian Vistas lined with vegetation and flowing water features,  moody sci-fi glowing caverns, fields of grass dancing in the wind, and more. 
• Engaging Interactive Environments: Environments are intentionally designed for players to explore and interact with the world around them, readable physical puzzles create a path throughout your journey. 
• First-Person Narrative Adventure: Piece together Katari’s father’s field logs and choose how deeply to dig into the lore behind Ciudadela.
• Professional Voice Acting: Purposefully considered voice lines guide the player through their journey and key discoveries. Clean delivery and natural pacing keep the story clear and accessible. 
• Pristine Sound Design: Spatialized audio, responsive layers, and meticulous foley bring Ciudadela to life. Subtle mechanical cues and environmental ambiences double as readable hints without breaking immersion.

If you’re curious about the secrets buried beneath Ciudadela, wishlist the game now on Steam!

Assemble a team of teen investigators, check in for an extended ghost-battling stay

SEATTLE — Jan. 27, 2026 — THE SPIRIT LIFT, the retro horror deckbuilder roguelike set in a haunted hotel during the 90’s, from developer prettysmart games, welcomes guests into its ghostly halls on PC via Steam today.

Build a starting deck by selecting a plucky team of three teen paranormal investigators from a pool of eight characters, then venture forth into a spooky, abandoned hotel. Each character alters the starting deck, affecting battle strategies and offering distinct story revelations depending on who joins the fray. Scour rooms across 13 floors for secrets, new gear and upgrades, then head to the elevator to ascend to the next ghastly level.

All manner of supernatural spectres, unnaturally animated objects, and menacing poltergeists roam the halls. Battle these eerie apparitions who will stop at nothing to impede progress, and reach the penthouse suite to challenge a powerful, charismatic final boss. Unlock additional starting cards per party member, and customize the initial loadout to pummel the foes that await on every floor. 

Collect helpful items and weapons to aid in the final encounter, including firefighter axes, night-vision goggles and rollerblades. Engage in strategic card battles, defy death or try again. Visit the hotel’s mysteriously charming shopkeeper (who happens to be a wolf!) for new abilities to add to an evolving deck. Defeat ghastly fiends to gain experience, and choose strategic upgrades for a set of powerful cards. 

Experiment with different card combinations, modifying the deck to individual playstyles and progression. Earn Spirit points to spend on customization options, and reap the rewards of every run. Along the way, uncover the lore hidden within the Library, participate in custom challenges, and defeat the multiple bosses that await! THE SPIRIT LIFT rewards death, offering endless replayability that respects player time. 

“Our deck of 200+ cards features peculiar, retro items that offer a ton of advantages.” said Miko Charbonneau, Creative Director and Studio Lead at prettysmart games. “You can dish out damage with a tennis racket, stun enemies with a disposable camera, or heal the team with a literal adrenaline shot. You can also equip over 90 pieces of gear including mood rings and slap bracelets! We’re even more excited to see players find all the secrets we packed into the game. Horror references, mysterious evidence files, easter eggs, hidden story paths, and the real reason why these unlucky teens are doomed to repeat their graduation night over and over.”

THE SPIRIT LIFT is available on PC via Steam today for $19.99 USD, with a 10% discount. For more information on THE SPIRIT LIFT, visit prettysmart games’ official website, check out the developer’s YouTube and Twitch, and follow the team on BlueSky.

New launch trailer showcases floating isles and clockwork creatures – with 6-player co-op!

Los Angeles, CA – January 27, 2026 – Today, Loric Games and Snail Games USA have launched the highly anticipated airborne open-world survival RPG crafting game Echoes of Elysium in Early Access on Steam. The game will retail for $19.99 / £16.75 / €19.50 with a 10% discount for the first week. To mark the launch, Loric Games unveiled a new trailer showcasing the innovative airship building system, allowing players to construct, customize, and pilot vessels through Elysium’s floating islands, along with the deep crafting and resource gathering essential for survival. The trailer also highlights intense multiplayer combat, both airborne and on the ground, as well as offering clues about the world’s lore.

The Early Access launch features Echoes of Elysium’s core crafting and survival systems, along with its expansive first region, several hours of quest content, and a final boss. Players can engage in up to 6-player co-op or solo offline play and progress to build Tier 2 weapons, tools, and airship components. As Echoes of Elysium progresses throughout Early Access, it will receive additional biomes with new resources, recipes, and higher-tier airship components, along with more narrative content and endgame features.

Offering players a glimpse into the Echoes of Elysium roadmap while in Early Access, Loric plans to deliver ongoing updates focused on stability, accessibility, and quality-of-life – including critical fixes, expanded localization, controller support, ship customization, and Steam Deck support, the roadmap includes continuous improvements and content updates delivered between two major content expansions planned for 2026.

The Spring Expansion introduces dynamic storms, new enemies, Tier 3 airship parts, and a new boss encounter, followed by a Summer Expansion that adds a new biome, caves and dungeons, a Pilot class, deeper customization, and new enemy threats, all shaped in collaboration with the community throughout Early Access.

To support this ambitious roadmap, Echoes of Elysium was transitioned from Unity 2021 to Unity 6.3, laying a stronger technical foundation for ongoing development. “We made the decision to migrate our game engine from Unity 2021 to Unity 6.3 which offers dramatically improved stability, performance, and progression. Loric is incredibly proud of what the team has built and excited by what’s ahead as development continues alongside our community,” said Loric Games cofounder and CEO Brian Johnson.

Set in the enchanting world of Elysium, where ancient mechanisms coexist with serene skies and breathtaking landscapes, players must set sail for adventure in airships of their own design. Your fleet is more than simple transport, but your base of operations where you can transport supplies, craft materials, and engage in aerial combat against an armada of adversaries.

Work alone or with friends in up to 6-player co-op as you uncover the mysteries of a forgotten paradise where danger lurks in the form of soul-powered clockwork beasts. Gather, craft, and grow in power as you fight for survival across a fractured landscape of diverse environments. Harvest unique resources to craft vital tools, contraptions, and airships, all aiding in your defense and exploration. Everything you would normally do on the ground in survival RPGs happens in the sky for a unique airship-focused experience.

Industry’s Leader with Three FIPS 140-3 Level 3 Validated USB Drive Models Available Worldwide

Australia –January 27, 2026–Kingston Technology, a world leader in memory and technology solutions, today announced its award-winning Kingston IronKey Keypad 200 series (KP200 and KP200C) hardware-encrypted USB flash drives have received NIST FIPS 140-3 Level 3 validation. This certification brings the KP200 series in line with IronKey D500S, which has already achieved this prestigious security standard, further reinforcing Kingston’s commitment to providing robust, certified data protection solutions.

The KP200 series are keypad drives that are OS-independent and thus are usable on standard Windows^®, macOS^® platforms, as well as Linux^®, ChromeOS^™, even iOS and Android^™ via USB-A or USB-C^® connector. These drives are ideal for users who need encrypted storage to protect software that can be loaded or unloaded from medical, scientific, industrial, and other machinery with USB interfaces. For Operational Technology (OT) infrastructure companies, NIST recommends enhanced USB drive security through its new Special Publication (SP) 1334 guidance.

“The FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification process by NIST has been the most intensive and time-consuming effort in over a decade, but due to our commitment in providing the best product solutions for our customers, Kingston is now the world’s first hardware-encrypted USB drive supplier with three different drive models – D500S, KP200 and KP200C – certified to this de-facto global data security standard. With FIPS 140-3 Level 3 certification, the IronKey KP200 and KP200C drives are exceptional for securing data-at-rest and meeting government and military standards worldwide,” said Kingston. “As data loss and theft continue to rise, these drives help organizations reduce the risks and costs associated with lost or stolen devices, while supporting compliance with regulations such as HIPAA, GDPR, NIS2, CCPA, and other regional data protection standards.”

KP200 series supports dual Admin and User PINs, providing an alternate way to access the drive if one password is forgotten. Other advanced features include the capabilities of an Admin to set a Global Read-Only mode until reset, or a Session Read-Only Mode to ensure the drive is locked against potential changes or malware being written to the drive on untrusted systems or devices. KP200 series is also IP68 certified dustproof and waterproof¹.

KP200 series is customizable with Co-Logo, available with USB Type-A and USB-Type C² in capacities up to 512GB³ and backed by limited 3-year warranty with free technical support.
