When you want to download a Twitch game you now have to download an Amazon Games App. The good news is that all your Twitch games are on this new client but as as far as I can see you cannot stream any Twitch videos.

So Amazon are now running 2 game clients. ](*,)

I am uninstalling the Twitch app.

Abandon Ship is worth a look as well, kind of a Pirate version of FTL.

I got lost on how to link EA Play with Amazon Game client - just gave up. Will play it on GamePass instead

What Alan said tbh, on Gamepass you still have to go through EA Play and it's a little bit of a ballache.

One of their games this month was for "Legacy Games launcher". I thought - oh is someone trying to make a new GoG?

https://legacygames.com/

No.

Kind of looks like someone made a storefront themed after those PC games you used to get on a revolving stand in shops that were not game shops. I think I bought Nerves Of Steel from one of those actually.

edit: heh, preview says they have been a publisher since 1998 so they probably were on all those revolving stands and checkouts!
