Quick Overview

What to expect from this issue.

Editorial

Starting in this issue we’re going to have an editorial page. And for this issue we’re going to use that page to spread the word about the RetroAchievements Manifesto.

HotCheevs Monthly

List of achievement sets released in the last month.

Play This Set

Community members talking about their favorite sets and why you should play them. Cool stuff!

RAGuide

In this issue we’re starting to publish a guide to master an achievement set.

As we’re on october, ikki5 sent to us a guide for a spooky game: Ghoul School (NES).

ALERT! The guides usually contains spoilers about the game.

Badge Quest

Our friend (and podcaster) Bendyhuman challenged himself to master one game per day for a whole month, and he did it! Not only did but also wrote a mini-review about each game he mastered.

Really cool article that made me want to try some of those games.

Top Players

Some statistics about the top 300 players of RetroAchievements and how they progressed over the last month.

Most Wanted Games

List of games with no achievement sets that community is excited to see. Hopefully it can encourage some achievement creators to pick a game and create a set for it.

Current Events

List of running events that are open to join.

Revisions and Rescores

Which sets got a revision or a rescore over the last month.

Art Updates

Which sets got their game icons and/or badges changed over the last month.

Fun

Mixing games with videogames and RetroAchievements. Really funny stuff being created by StingX2.

In this issue we have another bingo and also an honorable mention of the last month’s bingo winner.

Community Works

Showing off what the RetroAchievements fans are producing outside from here.
