The Forge runes and traits guide

Making sure you’re getting the best out of your Roblox games can be a little tricky, so we’re here to offer you some guidance surrounding The Forge’s runes, which are items dropped from enemies that can help you upgrade your items. If you settle for less, you might end up struggling, so it’s worth taking a look in case you need to up your game a little.

Runes can also have secondary traits, which we cover in this guide. Taking full advantage of these will have you slaying with ease, but don’t fret if you don’t understand what to do with them, as we have you covered.

Here are all of the Forge Runes:

Rune	Ability	How to obtain
Blast Chip	Explosion: creates an explosion at the enemy’s location, dealing a percentage of weapon damage as AOE	Defeat a bomber
Briar Notch	Thorns: reflects a percentage of physical damage taken, capped depending on your max HP	Defeat a deathaxe skeleton or elite deathaxe skeleton
Chill Dust	Snow: slows enemy attack speed and movement briefly	Not yet obtainable
Drain Edge	Heal: restores damage upon hit	Defeat a reaper
Flame Spark	Burn: deals a percentage of your weapon damage as fire briefly	Defeat a deathaxe skeleton, elite deathaxe skeleton, reaper, or blazing slime
Frost Speck	Ice: freezes enemies very briefly	Defeat a zombie
Miner Shard	Luck: grants extra luck Yield: increased chance of extra ore while mining Mine speed: boost mining speed Mine power: boosts pickaxe damage	Defeat a delver zombie or bomber
Rage Mark	Berserk: activates at 35% HP or less, increases damage and movement speed	Defeat an elite rogue skeleton
Rot Stitch	Toxic veins: Deals poison damage while you are below 35% HP	Defeat a zombie
Ward Patch	Shield: reduces incoming damage per hit	Defeat a zombie, elite zombie, or brute zombie
Venom Crumb	Poison: deals a percentage of weapon damage as poison briefly	Defeat a zombie

How do I get The Forge Rune slots?

In order to unlock Rune slots, you’ll need to enhance your items. How, you may ask? If you head to the NPC known as The Enhancer, who can be found in every single world, you’ll be given the option to enhance your weapons and armor. This will cost you essence and money, but you’ll find that the more powerful your combat items get, the more Rune slots begin opening up to you. Plus, your stats increase. What’s not to like?

Keep in mind that this method doesn’t work for The Forge’s pickaxes. The only way to increase the number of slots in a pickaxe is to buy a better one, unfortunately, so you’d best get saving up for that Arcane pickaxe, or make sure you’ve got The Forge’s codes on hand for free money.

The Forge Rune Traits

Some runes can have secondary traits that give them all kinds of other powers alongside their main one. Be careful, though, as some of the traits only work if the rune is in a weapon, and some only work if it’s in armor. Hopefully, knowing this can help optimize your rune distribution.

Trait name	Trait ability	Equipment type
Attack speed	Increases attack speed	Weapon
Critical chance	Increases the chance to land a critical hit	Weapon
Critical damage	Increase the damage of critical hits	Weapon
Endurance	Increases stamina	Armor
Fracture	Increases stun damage	Weapon
Lethality	Increases weapon damage	Weapon
Phase	Increases dash invincibility duration	Armor
Surge	Reduces dash cooldown	Armor
Vitality	Increases HP	Armor

That’s all you need to know about runes in The Forge. Thanks for stopping by, and good luck out there.

What are races in The Forge?

Races are essentially different types that your character can be in The Forge. Everyone starts the game as the Human race. There are a handful of races currently available, ranging in rarity, that include:

Common
Uncommon
Rare
Epic
Legendary
Mythical

Depending on which race you currently have equipped, you can get different buffs to use during combat.

How do I perform a The Forge race reroll?

In The Forge, you can reroll your race in a few ways. The first, and free way, is to use rolls you can get from codes in the game. Then there’s the paid-for way, which means you need to purchase rerolls with Robux.

Once you’ve got a few rerolls, you can either use them in the race menu, and bam, there’s a new race for you. You can visit a couple of NPCs to reroll, if you want to make a bit more of an adventure out of it. You can speak to either Sensei Moro or The Wizard, both of whom offer rerolls. Both NPCs are located near the spawn area. The Wizard is in a tower a little further on, though.

There you are, how to get a new The Forge race, and how to reroll if you’re not satisfied. Keep this page handy to see when more options are added to the game.

I found all of the best Black Friday deals for cell phones and accessories

Black Friday is always a fantastic time to steal some bargains, and it’s especially good if you need some new tech or accessories in your life – our mobile Black Friday deals round-up is perfect if you’re after a great deal. We’ve searched everywhere for the best mobile-centric deals this weekend, but you’ll need to be quick; they don’t last forever.

Luckily, you can grab any bit of mobile hardware you may be after with these deals, as they stretch across not just cell phones, but tablets, chargers, and controllers, too, all from top brands in the gaming sphere.

Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ Tablet

Samsung is one of the most reliable hardware brands out there, though that often comes at a premium price. The Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ Tablet is a 2024 model, meaning it’s still a relevant bit of kit, offering a massive 11-inch screen that boasts a 90Hz refresh rate. This tablet also features a Qualcomm Snapdragon 695 chipset, which, while behind the newest and most powerful tablets, still offers a good experience that can rival some of the best gaming tablets you can buy.

This Black Friday, you can snag this tablet for a whopping 36% discount, meaning you can pick up a decent Samsung tablet for just under $140 – that’s a bargain if we’ve ever seen one. Even if you personally want a brand new flagship product, with Christmas around the corner, the Samsung Galaxy Tab A9+ is the perfect tablet for kids, and, at that price, it doesn’t break the bank.

GameSir G8+ Bluetooth controller

GameSir is a leading brand in gaming peripherals, offering some of the best phone controllers you can buy, including the GameSir G8+, which is fantastic for those of you who enjoy customizable buttons, which happen to be console-grade, ensuring you get quality from the gamepad. It’s also light, portable, and features multiple connections with a nice, slick black finish.

It’s hardly surprising that Daz Skubich gave it a 9/10 in their GameSir G8+ Bluetooth controller review, and you can grab it for 20% off as part of the big Black Friday sale, meaning you can add this accessory to your gaming repertoire at a great price in both the US and the UK. Players on both sides of the pond can enhance their gaming experience.

Anker iPhone charger

You can never have too many chargers; that’s our motto, as you never seem to have one to hand when you need it most. This Anker charger is a two-pack and is compatible with various Apple models, including the iPhone 17, 16, 15, and earlier models, as well as the iPad Pro. Not only do you get the chargers, but you also get two cables, with each charger featuring both USB and USB-C ports, so you can use other cables to charge other devices, too. At 20W, you can expect some fast charging, so you don’t need to wait around before you can get on with your day.

During the Black Friday sale, you can nab this two-charger bundle for a lovely 41% off. Anker is a highly reputable brand, so you can trust that you’ll be able to get back to playing games and streaming high-quality TV on your phone in no time.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 512GB

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is the company’s latest foldable flagship, and it’s a fantastic option for those of you who want to experience the best mobile games at their highest settings. While foldables have yet to force their way onto our best gaming phones list, Samsung’s flagship features the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, a respectable 6.5-inch cover display, a fantastic eight-inch internal display, and at least 256GB with a minimum 12GB RAM (depending on your model), it’s more than worthy of a spot among best devices on the market.

Well, this Black Friday, Samsung is offering a hefty $400 discount for this phone on its website, meaning you can grab the 256GB model for $1,599.99. Better still, you can actually get an additional $1,000 off if you trade in your old phones. That’s a fantastic deal for customers in the US, though those of us in the UK need to settle for a smaller £250 discount instead.

OnePlus 13

OnePlus is an Android hardware company on the rise, really shooting to stardom in the last few years, offering premium phones at prices that rival giants like Apple and Samsung. Its current flagship, the OnePlus 13, is easily the best OnePlus phone on the market, offering a luscious 6.83-inch AMOLED display with a 120Hz refresh rate, along with the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, which is superior for gaming, and a 6,000 mAh battery that ensures your device can hold its charge for long periods of time.

As part of the Black Friday rush, you can pick up the OnePlus 13 at a 20% discount, making now the perfect time to invest in a new phone that offers a truly premium experience at a lower cost than many competitors.

GameSir X5s controller

GameSir offers a variety of accessories at different price points, and the GameSir X5s is on the more modest side, coming in at $49.99 without being on sale. Its lightweight, ergonomic design lets you lose yourself in games like Genshin Impact for hours at a time without wrist fatigue. Plus, the controller boasts a battery that enables you to game for hours on end. Plus, you can even connect it to your Nintendo Switch, so it offers excellent versatility in what you can connect it to.

While $49.99 is a great price for this controller, as Quinn Collins points out in their GameSir X5s review, you can grab it even cheaper right now, as it’s on sale for 20% off. That’s the true beauty of Black Friday: you can even grab a bargain on items that already seem to have a reasonable price, saving you even more money.

Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra

If you love Samsung devices but prefer the tried-and-tested candybar design of cell phones rather than flip and fold models, you should consider the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra. We believe it to be the best Samsung phone overall, thanks to its Snapdragon Elite 8 chipset, IP68 rating, and gorgeous photo-capturing capabilities. Plus, its stylus is a nice little touch for those of you who enjoy drawing or perfect tasks on your cell with some extra flair.

In Callum Self’s Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra review, he gives the device near full marks with 9/10, so it goes without saying that the current 28% discount on the 512 GB model is a bargain. It takes the price down to just over $1,000, saving you a cool $400. However, if you’re happy to sacrifice half of that storage and opt for the 256GB model, the Black Friday discount increases to 31%.

Remember, you need to act fast, as these are Black Friday deals and so may not last long.

Get Sonic CrossWorlds at 33% off and more in this year’s best Nintendo Switch Black Friday deals

Black Friday is basically the cosmic signal for gamers to start hoarding Nintendo Switch titles like winter squirrels, and this year’s deals are genuinely delicious. We’ve got major discounts across cosy life sims, high-octane racers, rhythm games, detective classics, and, of course, the ever-magnetic world of Disney magic. It’s great to see so many of the best Switch games included in the sales.

Leading the charge this year is Sonic Racing Crossworlds, a fresh spin on Sega’s iconic speedster, which has a decent discount despite only being a few months old. Beyond that, Black Friday is serving up the Disney Dreamlight Valley: Cozy Edition, the joyous chaos of Just Dance 2026, the pastel paradise of Hello Kitty Island Adventure, and the slick courtroom charisma of Ace Attorney Investigations. Check out all the most enticing Nintendo Switch deals below.

Sonic Racing CrossWorlds

The game’s discount isn’t just an excuse to impulse-buy; it’s an excuse to rediscover why kart racers with attitude always hit the spot on Switch. CrossWorlds is a vibrant blend of Sonic energy, tight drifting, and colourful tracks that will make you want to do just “one more” race. You can choose between no less than 23 characters from the Sonic universe (and beyond), 45 original vehicles plus a ton of gadgets, which all offer great variety in possible strategies. And of course, you can travel through different dimensions, which definitely spices things up. Whether you’re blasting through loops solo or trash-talking your friends in local multiplayer, it’s a perfect weekend fix. Its only flaw is the lack of Banjo-Kazooie… and Danica Patrick. You can get it with a nice 33% discount this Black Friday, at $39.99 instead of $59.99.

Disney Dreamlight Valley: Cozy Edition

My editor asked me to lead the article with Sonic. Yeah. Whatever. I listened because I don’t want to get fired. But Disney Dreamlight Valley is the real star here. Why? Because it’s the best game. There. Disney Dreamlight Valley: Cozy Edition is exactly what it sounds like: a giant warm hug of love, goodness, and glitter disguised as a life sim. Farming, cooking, crafting, decorating, the usual. You can even befriend Disney characters who somehow have more emotional availability than half the people on dating apps – it’s all here. This edition bundles extra goodies like a bunch of Moonstones that you can use to buy extra furniture or house skins to make your valley look gorgeous. If you need a soothing game to pair with your winter hibernation rituals. You also need the base game if you want to play the extensions, the latest one, Wishblossom Ranch, being just out! You can get the base game now for $29.93 instead of $39.99.

Just Dance 2026

Playing video games has plenty of benefits… but also some drawbacks. It is bad for your body. As they say, “sitting in the new smoking”. So what’s the best way to keep indulging in a game and treat your body nicely? Have a lil’ boogie. Just Dance 2026 allows you to move your body in a way that feels like cardio but also like you’re starring in your own music video. It gives you access to the newest playlist of bops, guilty pleasures, and “I swear I know this one” tracks. It’s ideal for parties, awkward family gatherings, or solo nights where you need to shake off the week’s weirdness. Because YES let’s normalise dancing alone at home please. The Switch is still the best platform for this series thanks to the Joy-Cons: it’s basically a dancing machine disguised as a console. You can now get it at half its usual price, $24.99 / £24.99 instead of $49.99 / £42.99.

Hello Kitty Island Adventure

Then there’s Hello Kitty Island Adventure, the famously adorable Apple Arcade hit that made its way to Switch. A discount this early is a delightful surprise. If you want a pure serotonin farm (pastel colours, wholesome exploration, cute friendships, zero chaos) this is the one. It’s Animal Crossing’s soft-hearted cousin who always remembers your birthday and brings you cookies.

It’s a genuinely thoughtful life sim full of exploration, home decoration, cosy quests, and surprisingly rich character interactions. The world feels like a pastel utopia that invites you to breathe out, slow down, and remember that tenderness is a valid gaming aesthetic. Get it now for $24.99 / £22.49 instead of $39,99 / £34.99.

Ace Attorney Investigations Collection

Finally, Ace Attorney Investigations lands a solid deal as well, giving mystery lovers the perfect excuse to dive back into Miles Edgeworth’s sharp logic and sharper shoulder pads. These cases are twisty, clever, and full of what we all love about Ace Attorney: courtroom drama, eccentric witnesses, and dialogue that feels like a chaotic stage play. Having the full Investigations set on Switch is already a gift; getting it discounted at $24.99 instead of $39.99 is just showing off.

Taken together, this year’s Black Friday deals are a cosy microcosm of what makes the Switch special: fast-paced party racers, peaceful life sims, narrative mysteries, rhythm chaos, and comforting cuteness. Whether you want speed, softness, or sheer silliness, there’s something calling your name from the sale page. Just make sure you don’t miss these discounts, because with it being Black Friday, they aren’t going to last for long.

Persona 3 Reload is Steam Deck verified and 55% off in the Humble Bundle Black Friday sale

Persona 3 Reload is a fantastic game, one that’s easy to replay over and over again. For both new and existing players alike, now is the time to revisit this new remake of the iconic 2006 original, as the Humble Bundle Black Friday sale means you can pick up Persona 3 Reload on Steam for 55% off.

Better still, it’s Steam Deck verified, so you can play Persona 3 Reload on the go without needing to worry about investing in one of the best Steam Deck alternatives, which would absolutely defeat the purpose of picking the game up for just $26.99 at the moment. In her Persona 3 Reload review, Holly Alice gives it a 9/10, so it’s safe to say that we’re huge fans at PT.

Just as in the original Persona 3, you play as the silent protagonist Makoto Yuki, an orphan who lost his parents ten years before the events of the game.

Yuki transfers to Gekkoukan High School, quickly making new friends and forming the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad, as they work hard to investigate the Dark Hour, Shadows, and Tartarus. It’s a fun time, with twists and turns for you to enjoy as you form close bonds with all of the characters. Trust us, you care about what happens to this bunch by the time the credits roll.

As with any Persona game, the combat is on point, offering fun, turn-based fights in which you can summon various personas. It gives you a challenge that feels rewarding to overcome, walking that fine line between annoyance and enjoyment perfectly.

One of our favorite things about the Persona series, however, is the social aspects, which are on full display in Persona 3 Reload. You can unwind and enjoy a break away from battles by spending some quality time with your friends. Better still, Reload actually builds further upon this mechanic, offering you even more activities to enjoy beyond what you get in the original – you can speak wth every dorm resident in the Iwatodai Dorm, cook food, tend to plants, rent movies, and borrow books.

With so much to do, Pesona 3 Reload is the ultimate way to experience the story of the Specialized Extracurricular Execution Squad. The Humble Bundle Black Friday sale for Persona 3 Reload is only available for three days, so if you want to snag it at a 55% discount for $26.99 or $24.74, you need to act fast. This deal is only available until Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025.

Today’s Coin Master free spins October 2023

Are you wondering how to get Coin Master free spins? You’ve come to the right place. This mobile game combines the thrill of playing slots with the social battling of Clash of Clans to create something that you just can’t put down; in a good way. The problem is, you so often have to put it down if you’re not willing to fork out the cash for regular spins.

In this Coin Master blog, we’re going to provide you with all of the ways you can get your hands on a few free spins and a Coin Master bonus here and there. We also recommend you check out our Coin Master free cards and Coin Master free coins guides to get even more rewards, and our Pet Master free spins guide if you fancy checking out Moon Active’s latest game.

How can I get Coin Master free spins?

Here are a bunch of tips to help you get even more free spins in Coin Master.

Follow Coin Master on social media

Each day, Moon Active, Coin Master’s developer, provides a bunch of links that you can follow to get your hands on Coin Master free spins. If you keep on top of this, you can get a steady stream of free stuff for very little effort. You can follow Coin Master on Facebook or Twitter.

Want more? Check out CodesDb for a powerful, searchable database of the latest game codes.

Sign up for email gifts

If you sign up for email gifts, you can get yourself a handful of Coin Master free spins every single day just by following a link on your phone. We haven’t encountered any spam from signing up so far either, so it’s a quick and easy method of getting yourself some tasty free spins.

Invite friends

Each time you invite a friend who successfully joins Coin Master through Facebook, you’ll get 40 Coin Master free spins, which is considerable. They don’t even have to actually play the game; they simply have to download it and log in via their Facebook account to get you the free spins. Of course, it’s in both your interests to actually play it, which brings us nicely to our next point.

Request spins as gifts

You can get up to 100 Coin Master free spins per day from friends, though to get to those heights you’ll need 100 active friends who are kind enough to send you a gift each day. Each gift consists of a single free spin.

Unless you’re incredibly popular, it’s highly unlikely that you’ll have 100 friends; let alone 100 that will actually deign to play a game with you. We recommend heading on over to the official Reddit community or Facebook communities to try and find people willing to play with you.

Watch video ads

You can get a limited number of Coin Master free spins per day by watching a video ad. Simply scroll to the slot machine and tap on the spin energy button on the bottom right. If it’s not there, you’ve run out of free spins you can get through this method for the day, but if it is, simply tap on it and you’ll watch an ad.

Spin

Ironically, you can actually get a ton of Coin Master free spins by, well, spinning. If you get three spin energy symbols in a row, you’ll get a bunch of free spins. Pick up a chain of them and you can spin for ages before you run out.

Level up your village

Each time you level up your village, you’ll get a bunch of Coin Master free spins. It’s not easy though, as it costs a considerable amount of gold to purchase new buildings and improve them, and you have to purchase every single one of them, including improvements, to level up. That’s going to cost a lot of spins, as it is.

Looking for a new game? Take a look at our Honkai Star Rail codes, Honkai Star Rail tier list, or even our Pokédex!

Participate in events

There’s almost always at least one event happening in Coin Master, and it can absolutely shower you with free spins. While viewing the slot machine, look at the top right of the screen. Any virtual buttons that you can see beneath the menu (which is displayed as three lines) are an event. Tap on one and you’ll see what each event involves.

Take advantage of these events and you can get yourself a lot more Coin Master free spins than usual.

Wait

This is an obvious suggestion, but it’s actually worth taking into consideration. You get five free spins every single hour, and you can only hold a maximum of 50 spins at any one time. That means every ten hours you’ll hit the maximum number of spins, and any Coin Master free spins you would have earned after that will cease to exist.

So, we recommend setting a reminder to visit Coin Master every ten hours at least to spend your spins so you are always earning more. You’ll actually end up earning a huge number of extra spins if you’re dedicated, so it’s totally worth doing.

Coin Master free spin FAQ

Now, we’ll answer a bunch of questions you may have regarding getting Coin Master free spins.

Do Coin Master free spins links expire?

Yes, the daily links that we include at the top of this page expire after three days, which is why we only include those from today and the two days prior.

Can I get 50 Coin Master free spins?

Coin Master 50 spin rewards most commonly appear during in-game events, like those that reward you for raiding or battling other players. There’s also a small chance to get this number from daily links, so bookmark this page and check back often.

Can I get 60 Coin Master free spins?

Yes, though it doesn’t appear to happen often from daily links. We’d recommend playing often and participating in events, and following the social media channels to find out what’s happening soon.

Can I get 70 Coin Master free spins?

We’ve never seen a Coin Master 70 spin reward appear as part of the daily links, but it has been known to appear as part of special events.

To get your hands on this rare reward, we would recommend playing on a daily basis and following social media channels to get an indication of when the next big event will take place.

Can I get 100 Coin Master free spins?

Yes, though not from the daily links. We’ve seen this number of free spins appear often during in-game events, most notably for those that reward you for raiding and participating in PvP battles.

Play often and follow the social media channels for events to keep an eye out for this.

Can I get 50,000 Coin Master free spins?

Again, 50,000 Coin Master spin rewards don’t seem to appear as part of the daily rewards cycle, but have been known to crop up during events. Follow the socials and play regularly to get the best chance at this reward.

And that will just about do it for our Coin Master free spins guide. For something a little different, why not take a look at our guide to answers for Wordle today? And if you’re looking for something new to play, check out our best mobile games list, or head over to our Honkai Star Rail tier list and Genshin Impact tier list.

GPT-4 with Vision (GPT-4V) Is Out! 32 Fun Examples with Screenshots

5/5 – (1 vote)

TLDR: GPT-4 with vision (GPT-4V) is now out for many ChatGPT Plus users in the US and some other regions! You can instruct GPT-4 to analyze image inputs. GPT-4V incorporates additional modalities such as image inputs into large language models (LLMs). Multimodal LLMs will expand the reach of AI from mainly language-based applications to a broad range of brand-new application categories that go beyond language user interfaces (UIs).

GPT-4V could explain why a picture was funny by talking about different parts of the image and their connections. The meme in the picture has words on it, which GPT-4V read to help make its answer. However, it made an error. It wrongly said the fried chicken in the image was called “NVIDIA BURGER” instead of “GPU”.

Still impressive! OpenAI’s GPT-4 with Vision (GPT-4V) represents a significant advancement in artificial intelligence, enabling the analysis of image inputs alongside text.

Let’s dive into some additional examples I and others encountered:

More Examples

Prompting GPT-4V with "How much money do I have?" and a photo of some foreign coins:

GPT4V was even able to identify that these are Polish Zloty Coins, a task with which 99% of humans would struggle:

It can also identify locations from photos and give you information about plants you make photos of. In this way, it’s similar to Google Lens but much better and more interactive with a higher level of image understanding.

It can do optical character recognition (OCR) almost flawlessly:

Now here’s why many teachers and professors will lose their sleep over GPT-4V: it can even solve math problems from photos (source):

GPT-4V can do object detection, a crucial field in AI and ML: one model to rule them all!

GPT-4V can even help you play poker

A Twitter/X user gave it a screenshot of a day planner and asked it to code a digital UI of it. The Python code worked!

Speaking of coding, here’s a fun example by another creative developer, Matt Shumer:

"The first GPT-4V-powered frontend engineer agent. Just upload a picture of a design, and the agent autonomously codes it up, looks at a render for mistakes, improves the code accordingly, repeat. Utterly insane." (source)

I’ve even seen GPT-4V analyzing financial data like Bitcoin indicators:

I could go on forever. Here are 20 more ideas of how to use GPT-4V that I found extremely interesting, fun, and even visionary:

Visual Assistance for the Blind: GPT-4V can describe the surroundings or read out text from images to assist visually impaired individuals.
Educational Tutor: It can analyze diagrams and provide detailed explanations, helping students understand complex concepts.
Medical Imaging: Assist doctors by providing preliminary observations from medical images (though not for making diagnoses).
Recipe Suggestions: Users can show ingredients they have, and GPT-4V can suggest possible recipes.
Fashion Advice: Offer fashion tips by analyzing pictures of outfits.
Plant or Animal Identification: Identify and provide information about plants or animals in photos.
Travel Assistance: Analyze photos of landmarks to provide historical and cultural information.
Language Translation: Read and translate text in images from one language to another.
Home Decor Planning: Provide suggestions for home decor based on pictures of users’ living spaces.
Art Creation: Offer guidance and suggestions for creating art by analyzing images of ongoing artwork.
Fitness Coaching: Analyze workout or yoga postures and offer corrections or enhancements.
Event Planning: Assist in planning events by visualizing and organizing space, decorations, and layouts.
Shopping Assistance: Help users in making purchasing decisions by analyzing product images and providing information.
Gardening Advice: Provide gardening tips based on pictures of plants and their surroundings.
DIY Project Guidance: Offer step-by-step guidance for DIY projects by analyzing images of the project at various stages.
Safety Training: Analyze images of workplace environments to offer safety recommendations.
Historical Analysis: Provide historical context and information for images of historical events or figures.
Real Estate Assistance: Analyze images of properties to provide insights and information for buyers or sellers.
Wildlife Research: Assist researchers by analyzing images of wildlife and their habitats.
Meme Creation: Help users create memes by suggesting text or edits based on the image provided.

These are truly mind-boggling times. Most of those ideas are million-dollar startup ideas. Some ideas (like the real estate assistance app #18) could become billion-dollar businesses that are mostly built on GPT-4V’s functionality and are easy to implement for coders like you and me.

If you’re interested, feel free to read my other article on the Finxter blog:

What About SaFeTY?

GPT-4V is a multimodal large language model that incorporates image inputs, expanding the impact of language-only systems by solving new tasks and providing novel experiences for users. It builds upon the work done for GPT-4, employing a similar training process and reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF) to produce outputs preferred by human trainers.

Why RLHF? Mainly to avoid jailbreaking like so:

You can see that the “refusal rate” went up significantly:

From an everyday user perspective that doesn’t try to harm people, the "Sorry I cannot do X" reply will remain one of the more annoying parts of LLM tech, unfortunately.

However, the race is on! People have still reported jailbroken queries like this:

Fighting Pokémon weakness, resistance, and strength

If you’re trying to humble a Hitmontop or out-macho a Machamp, we’re here to help with our fighting Pokémon weakness guide. We’ve got everything you need to know about Pokémon’s most physical typing, including fighting Pokémon weaknesses, resistances, and strengths. So, take a scroll down the page and find out how to beat Bruno and the rest of the black belts of the Pokémon world with ease.

For more Pokétips, check out our guides to fairy Pokémon weakness, ghost Pokémon weakness, psychic Pokémon weakness, poison Pokémon weakness, steel Pokémon weakness, electric Pokémon weakness, water Pokémon weakness, and dark Pokémon weakness. Or, catch up on every generation with our complete Pokédex.

So, let’s ring for round one and get into our fighting Pokémon weakness guide.

What are fighting Pokémon weaknesses?

Until gen six, there were just two fighting Pokémon weaknesses in psychic- and flying-types, but these days there are also fairy Pokémon to contend with. Psychic and fairy moves are the biggest threat, especially as fighting Pokémon often have low special defence, but you should do your best to avoid all three of these dangerous typings.

What are fighting Pokémon resistances?

Fighting Pokémon are resistant to dark-, rock-, and bug-type attacks, making them perfect for taking into a forest on a pitch-black night. The bug-type resistance isn’t too helpful, with Pokémon distinctly lacking in potent bugs, but the option to switch in a fighting Pokémon when faced with a rock or dark Pokémon might help turn the tide of a battle.

What are fighting Pokémon strengths?

The fighting-type is easily one of the most offensive in Pokémon, with five different types hit for super-effective damage by fighting moves. If you face an opponent who specialises in any of these typings or has a couple of dual-type Pokémon with these types, a fighting-type move is sure to do some impressive HP damage.

There you have it, our fighting Pokémon weakness guide. While you’re here, check out another hit title with our Honkai Star Rail tier list and Honkai Star Rail codes guide.

The best city builder games 2023

Who doesn’t want to play the best city builder games on Switch and mobile, right? There’s something so inherently satisfying about building a city. Like some sort of mega-Tetris, the idea of slotting together buildings and maintaining the day-to-day challenges of a city is both fascinating and fun. Honestly, I could have been an architect I reckon, if it wasn’t for all the studying, and being smart, and the cost. So instead let’s dive into some games you can afford, and play today, no degree required.

Just before we don our hard hats and start assembling the rest of our article, be sure to check out the suburbs of Pocket Tactics for some real hidden gems. Much like an out-of-town restaurant, we’ve had fantastic Yelp reviews for our guides covering the best Switch racing games, the best horror games on Switch and mobile, the best Switch RPGs, the best Switch tactics games, and, if just like our mate Bob you love a bit of building, have a look at our guide on the best games like Minecraft for Switch and mobile.

It’s time to get on with our guide to the best city builder games on Switch and mobile.

Cities: Skyline – Switch

Well, this one is a bit on the nose, isn’t it? Cities: Skyline is a deep and incredibly addictive city builder where you can make the marvelous metropolis of your dreams. This granular simulation game gives you so much control, allowing you to optimize and manipulate the education systems, healthcare, and many other elements to better balance your city’s economy.

The Switch port sacrifices a bit of visual clarity, but being able to play this incredibly rich sim on the go is well worth it. Developer Colossal Order has optimized the UI incredibly well for Switch, and there’s even Pro Controller support so you can feel the rumble of machinery as you erect your latest skyscrapers. Cities: Skyline on Switch also includes both the After Dark and Snowfall DLC packs. so that’s plenty of building bang for your buck.

Steamworld Build – Switch

Alright, this is a slightly pre-emptive pick, but we have actually played and absolutely loved this entry in our Steamworld Build preview. Plus, the Steamworld Build release date isn’t far away at all, so you’d better get saving. Developer Thunderful (previously Image & Form) is well recognized for taking concepts and adding a layer of quirky personality to them, and then delivering a stellar game along the way. Steamworld Dig 1&2, Steamworld Heist, Steamworld Quest… all bangers. Well, they are if you ask us.

Steamworld Build brings across all of the depth, charm, and smart optimization that the Steamworld franchise is famous for. You balance your city-building abilities above ground with a surprisingly deep (sorry) mining side of the game, as you send units to explore the depths and earn the very elements you need to continue building above ground. It looks great, feels very addictive, and we can’t wait to relax over the holidays with another charming Steamworld entry.

Dragon Quest Builders 2 – Switch

Don’t judge a book by its cover, and don’t look at Dragon Quest Builders 2 and assume it’s Minecraft with silly JRPG outfits. I mean, it is that, but it’s also so much more. DQB2 takes the mining formula and adds so many smart quality-of-life upgrades that it makes going back to Minecraft feel like a chore. Plus, a lovely storyline propels the narrative and slowly introduces more tasks, building tools, and areas for you to explore.

On top of just being able to build your basic blocky barrack, as you explore the narrative and visit multiple islands, you befriend the people you meet along the way and bring them back to your home, building a cute community as you progress. You get farm animals, plenty of different building types, some really funny Dragon Quest-themed furniture, and the wholesome feeling of providing refuge for some waifs and strays. There’s a lengthy demo for Dragon Quest Builders 2, so give it a tickle and see if it’s for you. Forgive the sluggish intro, we promise it opens up fairly quickly!

Civilisation VI – Switch and mobile

The king, the legend, the G.O.A.T. of city-building sim games. As the French band Justice once sang… “Civilization.” That’s right Justice, what else is there to say? Well, Civ 6 is the latest iteration of the long-running franchise, and it brings along years of smart upgrades, challenges, and attention to detail that many other sim games can never hope to match.

Build your own personal empire and try to fend off the forces of encroaching countries. Develop tools and resources quickly, and soon you can overpower your foes with the smartest weapons this side of Tyrion using green flames on some pirate boats. What’s more, the extensive Switch port includes scenario packs based on Vikings, Poland (dobry, dobry!), Australia, and Persia. If you’re planning on conquering soon, be sure to check out our Civ 6 tier list first.

Townscaper – Switch and mobile

Let’s bring things down a notch, with a minimalist city-builder that’s more about vibes than vigorous architectural action. In Townscaper there are no goals, no tasks, no time limit, and definitely no enemies. Your job is just to build. Either use a controller or tap the screen to plop some buildings into an empty water-based void, and before long you’re making the adorable city of your dreams.

It’s not quite as granular as you might expect, but you can still create towns with a varying degree of tiers, you can swap colors, and even make cute little awnings and balconies. Whether you play on Switch or mobile, this is a cheap and cheerful way to spend a few hours, and it’s especially a lovely and very peaceful way to gain some calm and exert some control when the world feels a little bit too much. Check out our Townscaper review for more information.

Minecraft – Switch and mobile

Yeah, I know, this isn’t quite a city-builder, but technically you can build a city if you want to – as long as you have a month to spare. In Minecraft, your ability is only as big as your ambition, and you can create cities, countries, or even the entire world of Westeros (second Game of Thrones mention klaxon). You can choose survival if you want to brave the elements and tackle those dreaded creepers, and there’s something so thrilling about cobbling together your very first tiny little home.

However, if you just want to build me up, buttercup, then slap that bad boy onto creative and start building like God that one week. Enjoy unlimited resources, the insane depth of Redstone and other interactive elements, and plenty of real estate. Plus, you can watch the mountain of Minecraft YouTube videos to get some tips and even set up a server to share a game world with your pals. Yes, it’s a meme at this point, but there’s a reason Minecraft became the biggest game in the world. If this weary 34-year-old man can still unwind with a pickaxe, then you can give it a go as well.

The Simpsons: Tapped Out – mobile

I refuse to even entertain the idea that there’s anything in the world that isn’t improved by adding The Simpsons. My childhood skateboard? It had Bart on it, and it ruled. My t-shirt? You’d better believe it, The Simpsons are there making me look rad. GTA? Nah, The Simpsons Hit & Run shows Homer and the crew can make everything better. My parents divorce? Cheers Homer, we got through it together.

Anyway, uuhhh, The Simpsons: Tapped Out is a free-to-start city-builder, where you create your own approximation of Springfield. Use currency known as donuts to build Moe’s Tavern, Springfield School, the famous tyre fire, and much more. We will say, be careful, as while it’s addictive and very fun, The Simpsons: Tapped Out often feels designed to frustrate you into spending money, and purchase options go as high as the hundreds in an obvious attempt to harpoon those elusive mobile gaming whales. Still, if you can resist the urge, there’s so much to love here.

There you go, folks! That’s all we have for our guide to the best city builder games on Switch and mobile. If you just can’t get enough of that wonderful Duff (or video games), you can also read our argument for The Simpsons: Hit and Run remake now.
