A gaming community free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

They're cryptic crosswords, so there's more of a puzzle to the clue. e.g. with a proper noun
1D: Confused ham set London flower? (6)
Answer: Thames. (Confused Ham set = "this is an anagram of ham set, which is Thames"; London flower = a thing that flows in London = Thames)
e.g. without a proper noun
5A) Perhaps hawk’s attempt to catch rook (4)
Answer: bird. "Perhaps hawk" is a bird; another word for attempt is "bid", if "bid" captures the rook - for rook in chess notation you'd write "r" - so bid capturing r is bi + r + d = bird.
