From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.

Your support makes all the difference.

How’s your spelling? No, this isn’t an educational title designed to test your letters but a sorcery-packed game that has players casting runes to magical effect.

In order to perform spells, you have to collect different runes, then draw them in the right order to gain power. The action is split between scribbling and collecting, tournaments and challenges, all of which work well enough, but overall Doodle Hex feels like an interesting concept stretched a little too thinly across a whole game.
