The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood casts you as a witch living in exile who summons a terrifying behemoth, which then turns out to actually be kind of friendly and helps you design your own deck of fortune-telling cards.
It's also a narrative game about navigating complicated relationships with old friends from the coven that exiled you, as well as an agent of the magical bureaucracy responsible for making sure you don't do anything buck wild like cutting a deal with a behemoth. The demo for The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood was a highlight of, one of those games you sit down to try and immediately realize is something special.
Just like in Eternal Home Floristry, this small act of personal expression helps the game feel like yours."Including player creativity in a story improved the immersion in some way," says creative director Jordi de Paco."Because you see your art inside, part of you is inside of the game now." The cards then go into a deck you draw from when giving readings to The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood's cast of witches and Arbiters. Card readings provide a structure for the first social interactions you've had in centuries, having been exiled for so long. It's a story about coming out of isolation, so I can't help but wonder if it was influenced by the pandemic.
The loneliness of your home is emphasized by music full of sustained notes and washed-out synth, which sounds like space for some reason. Maybe because there's a lot of space between the notes? It contrasts with the different themes that accompany each character, like the drums that kick in when the behemoth arrives."We had a lot of going back and forth trying to think what the hell does each witch actually sound like?" Paula says.

Frontiers | Altered circadian behavior and light sensing in mouse models of Alzheimer’s diseaseCircadian symptoms have long been observed in Alzheimer’s disease (AD) and often appear before cognitive symptoms, but the mechanisms underlying circadian alterations in AD are poorly understood. We studied circadian re-entrainment in AD model mice using a “jet lag” paradigm, observing their behavior on a running wheel after a six hour advance in the light:dark cycle. Female 3xTg mice, which carry mutations producing progressive amyloid beta and tau pathology, re-entrained following jet lag more rapidly than age-matched wild type controls at both 8 and 13 months of age. This re-entrainment phenotype has not been previously reported in a murine AD model. Because microglia are activated in AD and in AD models, and inflammation can affect circadian rhythms, we hypothesized that microglia contribute to this re-entrainment phenotype. To test this, we used the colony stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R) inhibitor PLX3397, which rapidly depletes microglia from the brain. Microglia depletion did not alter re-entrainment in either wild type or 3xTg mice, demonstrating that microglia activation is not acutely responsible for the re-entrainment phenotype. To test whether mutant tau pathology is necessary for this behavioral phenotype, we repeated the jet lag behavioral test with the 5xFAD mouse model, which develops amyloid plaques, but not neurofibrillary tangles. As with 3xTg mice, 7-month-old female 5xFAD mice re-entrained more rapidly than controls, demonstrating that mutant tau is not necessary for the re-entrainment phenotype. Because AD pathology affects the retina, we tested whether differences in light sensing may contribute to altered entrainment behavior. 3xTg mice demonstrated heightened negative masking, a circadian behavior measuring responses to different levels of light, and re-entrained dramatically faster than WT mice in a jet lag experiment performed in dim light. 3xTg mice show a heightened sensitivity to light as a circadian cue that may contribute to acc
