ELK Studios, a specialist developer of real money casino games based in Stockholm, Sweden, has officially released Dam Beavers, a beaver-themed slot featuring dancing beavers as the main protagonists of this remarkable game.

Disco surprise:

This exquisite slot entices players to dive into the forest realm and meet beavers who love to dance and host the best disco parties on their side of the river. However, they may only achieve this by building the most luxurious 4 story dream dam!

Furthermore, set in a multi-layered environment, entertainment, relaxation and plenty of rewards are definitely guaranteed in this game.

The slot includes the CollectR mechanic, where the green beaver accumulates any green fruit or feature symbol next to it horizontally or vertically, which further prompts the red beaver do the same, but with red features or symbols etc. In addition, the game has high volatility, an RTP of 94% and a maximum win of 10,000x a player’s wager.

In terms of features, the aforementioned beavers are the main attraction here! During the Break the Floor feature, they tear down the floorboards to unveil hidden riches. As soon as they…

I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it: we’re in a golden age of city builders. Whether you’re into strategy, survival, story-driven campaigns, or even casual, no-stress construction sandboxes, there’s never been a wider selection of city builders to choose from. And there are lots more on the way.

As proof that the city builder genre has never been healthier, three of the five top wishlisted games on Steam right now are all city builders. That’s amazing. What’s even more interesting is that those games are all extremely different types of city builders.

First there’s Manor Lords, a medieval strategy survival city builder that not only looks like it’s dripping with historical accuracy but promises detailed medieval warfare and diplomacy systems: you’re not just building and managing your village, you’re defending your city and even conquering others. The limited-time demo last year was excellent and Manor Lords is the game I’m looking forward to the most—not just among city builders, but among all upcoming games, full stop. It still seems to be on track for a release this year, though no specific date has been announced.

Update: Since writing this post this Nextorage drive has dropped even cheaper over at Newegg. It’s $160 now, and even more desirable.

Original story: Way back in 2019, it was expected that SSD prices were going to drop below $0.10 per gigabyte. That happened, and then some. Nowadays, you can pick up slower SSD storage for $0.06/GB, or you can go all out on some of the speediest drives around for $0.08/GB. Like this 2TB Nextorage for $168 at Newegg.

This isn’t a cheap SSD, or a slow one. We just awarded the Nextorage NEM-PA 2TB a 90% score in our review for its blend of read speeds and impressive IOPS performance. It offers 7300MB/s write speeds and 6900MB/s reads, which is right up there with the best that PCIe 4.0 can offer. 

“It’s up there with the big boys in all key areas—specs, performance, and endurance,” our reviewer Jeremy writes.

This deal over at Newegg is for the model without a heatsink, whereas we reviewed one with a heatsink. We were impressed with the heatsink’s thermal performance, however, and it’s also on sale and just $15 more if that’s what you’re after.
