Samsung's trying to court iPhone users by offering a preview of what the software looks like. This new demo tool is called "Try Galaxy," but it's similar to the iTest demo it offered before. This time, you can try OneUI 5.1, the software on devices like the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy Z Flip4 and Fold4.

When you visit the Try Galaxy site, it will prompt you to "install" a web app by adding the site to your homescreen. This "app" experience gives a "little taste of Samsung Galaxy." There's everything from a quick navigation tutorial, access to Messages, camera features like Object Eraser, Samsung apps, and more. Samsung also highlights the customizability of the interface and its security and privacy settings.

Sega launches 'The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog' 

While it could be treated as an April Fools' joke, there's actually a murder mystery visual novel game about Sonic the Hedgehog. The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog (yes, murder!) dropped today on Steam for the PC and Mac. Sega drops the free point-and-click adventure where the Sonic cast find themselves on a murder mystery party aboard the Mirage Express to celebrate Amy Rose's birthday. But then Sonic ends up, well, dead. If you're a Sonic fan, this might be a fun game to try!
