Google's long-promoted game offering is lackluster, to say the least

YouTube has finally launched its much-trailed “Playables” offering, a selection of games you can play directly within YouTube. Why does this exist? Maybe a big launch exclusive? Perhaps something that will rival the consoles? Free stuff you can’t get elsewhere? Nope. You might not have heard, but gaming is big business. The games industry dwarfs movies in terms of revenue and audiences, despite the peculiar refusal of all other media to acknowledge its ubiquitous existence.

” Hidden in the list of over 75 games are some names you’ve heard of. There’s Angry Birds Showdown, which to be scrupulously fair, is a Playables exclusive, the 35,821st iteration of the franchise originally announced in 2019 for mobile, and seemingly once a Facebook Messenger app? There’s also 2010's Cut the Rope, and, er, 2018's Words of Wonder? I’m struggling to find anything else notable.
