About the lodge

A campfire for people who never stop grinding levels

We started in 2016 as a Discord channel arguing about the best build in Dark Souls. Ten years later we publish three long-form guides a week, playtest every release ourselves, and never accept payment to inflate a score.

Our writers live between the co-working desks of Shoreditch and the arcades of Brick Lane. Expect meticulous boss maps, spoiler-safe reviews, and the occasional 4,000-word love letter to an obscure isometric RPG.

How a guide is forged

From first playthrough to published guide

01

Full playthrough

Every title is finished start to end — no press-kit skimming. We log deaths, drop rates and difficulty spikes as we go.

02

Map & verify

Boss patterns and secret routes are re-run twice on separate saves so the strategy holds on patch-day and beyond.

03

Peer edit

A second writer plays against the draft to catch anything unclear, then our editor tightens the prose and screenshots.

04

Publish & update

Guides go live, then get revisited after major patches and DLC so the advice never quietly goes stale.

★★★★★
Their Malenia phase-two map is the only reason I finally beat her. Clearer than any video I sat through.

★★★★★
Finally a blog that reviews CRPGs without spoiling act three. The spoiler tags actually work. Renewed my membership instantly.

★★★★★
The monthly boss-rush stream is genuinely useful and the Discord crowd is welcoming. Best £8 I spend each month.
