An early Amazon Prime Day deal lets you save $40 on the Ninja Creami Deluxe ice cream maker. The 11-in-1 kitchen accessory, one of our favorite kitchen gadgets, is on sale for only $210 (usually $250). The Creami is based on a patent for an innovation previously only found in the restaurant biz. Once it expired, Ninja leaped at the chance to incorporate its design into a relatively affordable consumer product. The result is fast, easy and surprisingly yummy ice cream made from home. Instead of the churning method used in most ice cream makers, the Ninja Creami uses a drill-like utensil to blend a frozen liquid base into a tasty dessert. Although its pretty loud while doing its thing, its still quieter than most countertop blenders and only stays noisy for a few minutes. When reviewing the standard Creami model (this Deluxe one includes extra containers and settings), Engadgets Sam Rutherford concluded that tasting its resulting ice cream was the best part. It produces desserts with intense flavors and smooth textures. This higher-end model also makes smoothies and Frappuccino-style coffee drinks. Because the base is spun instead of churned, theres less air inside your finished product, our reviewer wrote. This is good because it increases flavor intensity and delivers a slightly denser, more luxurious mouthfeel. Its almost closer to a frozen custard than ice cream. You can get the Ninja Creami Deluxe right now on Amazon for $210.

Devolver Digital puts out a lot of good games and its looking to spread that magic around to licensed content. The company just announced a sub-label called Big Fan Games that will specialize in developing indie titles based on pre-existing IPs. Devolver describes Big Fan Games as a brand new label giving developers license to create original game adaptations using the worlds and characters of iconic film, television, and comic properties. To that end, the team is staffed with industry veterans who have worked with companies like Disney and Dark Horse Comics. Announcement time.Today we launch Big Fan ( @BigFanPresents ) - a brand new label giving developers license to create original game adaptations using the worlds and characters of iconic film, television, and comic properties. pic.twitter.com/A6h3IGOk3p Devolver Digital (@devolverdigital) October 1, 2024 The label already has a few games in its library, all of them based on pre-existing IPs. These titles include Reigns: Game of Thrones, Hellboy Web of Wyrd and John Wick Hex. These games were already released before being moved to the new label. For instance, Reigns: Game of Thrones came out six years ago, but back then it was published by Devolver. John Wick Hex came out in 2019 and Hellboy Web of Wyrd hit digital store shelves last year. Todays announcement doesnt bring any new games, but the company website currently features a big coming soon tab, though its currently empty. We should expect some reveals in the near future. Big Fan Games wrote in a press release that its goal is to nurture fun and inventive games that stand on their own, rather than serving as marketing tie-ins for other media launches. Licensed games have been hit and miss since the dawn of modern gaming. For every DuckTales, theres a Superman 64. Recent releases, however, have been well-received. Respawns Star Wars games were bona-fide hits, as was Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Shredders Revenge. While we dont know what Devolver and Big Fan Games are cooking up, we do know of some upcoming licensed games. MachineGames will release Indiana Jones and the Great Circle on December 9 and Arkane Lyon is busy working on a game based on Marvels Blade. I personally think its pretty great that Big Fan Games will give indie developers a chance to work on licensed properties. To that end, the company encourages developers to reach out with ideas for a licensed game. "Have a favorite game youve always dreamed of rebooting or a cult classic film or book you'd love to see adapted into a game? Wed love to hear from you," the studio writes on its website.

Ooni's pizza ovens are popular choices for baking restaurant-quality pies at home. In fact, the Karu 16 is my top pick for a multi-fuel option in our best pizza ovens guide. That model is spacious, accommodating 16-inch pizzas and allowing you to bake and roast thanks to the extra vertical space. The Karu 16 has been around for a while now, so Ooni has taken the opportunity to give it a big overhaul while keeping the price the same. The new Karu 2 Pro maintains many of the great design elements from the Karu 16, but adds some key upgrades to improve upon an already winning formula. First, the digital display for the Karu 2 Pro got a big upgrade. The black and white panel is gone, replaced by Ooni's Digital Temperature Hub that looks similar to what's on the Koda 2 Max. This piece of tech not only gives you a clear indication of oven and food temps (via a wired probe), but it will send those stats to your phone via Bluetooth. To help you adjust temperature of the oven, there's a new air intake lever on the back of the Karu 2 Pro near the fire box. This gives you another place to coax the air flow besides the one that's on the exhaust chimney, allowing you to run the oven as low as 200 degrees Fahrenheit. Lastly, the door of this new model has more glass and less framing, giving you a clearer view of what's going on inside without having to open the oven. Of course, this is an Ooni product, so there are certain things you can bank on. Primarily, there's the fact that the Karu 2 Pro can hit 950 degrees Fahrenheit in 15 minutes. At those temps, you can cook a Neapolitan-style pizza in about a minute or easily sear a steak with a grill pan. The powder-coated, carbon steel exterior helps keep heat in while protecting the Karu 2 Pro, and folding legs provide easy transport. And since this is a multi-fuel oven, you have the option of attaching a gas burner when you don't want to use wood or charcoal (additional purchase required). The Karu 2 Pro is listed as "coming soon" on Ooni's website for $799, the same price as the Karu 16 when it arrived. No word on preorders or an on-sale date, but you can sign up via the link below to be notified when the oven is up for purchase. What's more, the Karu 16 is currently available for $649, but it will soon be retired. The Karu 12G and Karu 12 will remain in the company's multi-fuel lineup.
