Nongunz is not for the faint hearted. If you feel you're worthy of the challenge, jump right in.
For newcomers, Lock's Quest is a solid tower defense/strategy/RPG/action game that should merit your attention. If the old school aesthetic doesn't appeal then well, it's all over this game so you may not have the wherewithal to dig and see what else this game has to offer. At times it's tough as balls and will certainly test your skills, however the lengthy campaign ensures you get enough bang here for your buck.
This is Crash Mode from Burnout in 2017 for less than a tenner.
Despite its niggles, Tokyo 42 is quite simply absolutely fantastic. I cannot wait to see what SMAC Games have for us next.
I encourage you to play The Town of Light, just don't say I promised you an easy ride.
It's a monumental pain in the ass at times and is perhaps too much of an onslaught for the less experienced in the genre (our advice is to start out on rookie. You'd be surprised how big of a leap it is to 'experienced'), but for those who are after a game where you can take on the world in a variety of modes (MUST. COMPLETE. FEATS. BOARD.), there's no reason at all why Nex Machina shouldn't be the top of your list.
Obviously you'll need to either already enjoy playing Chess or have a desire to learn the game to want to play Chess Ultra in the first place – giving the game a relatively narrow appeal – but this is a beautifully designed game that Chess novices and experts alike could quite easily lose hours and hours to, and at just £10 it is incredible value for money.
Oceanhorn: Monster of Uncharted Seas seems to have found its rightful place on Nintendo Switch and I'm delighted I can add it to my collection on the system.
The only way you're going to get anything out of this turgid experience is if you're the CEO of Nerf.
SpeedRunners has finally made its way to consoles and we're very happy about it. It's not perfect, and is very much one experience, but it's going to keep you busy as hell if you stick at it and is a cracker of a local multiplayer. Don't miss it.
It's only the first episode and in my experience TellTale series always get better and better as the series moves on, though I'm strained to remember a series which started as rocky at this one. I'm gonna jump into Episode 2 and hope that the story and series will get somewhere that brings back the spirit of the first season, because right now it's nowhere to be found.
There is nothing quite like it.
Super Cloudbuilt is a game that I was expecting to be fun, but I absolutely didn't expect to enjoy it as much as I have. It's tough as balls and frenetic, fun and full of life. The narrative running throughout is unexpectedly challenging and rewarding and visually, is about as wonderful as cel-shading has ever been.
Ironcast has proved once again that ports are nothing but a plus for Nintendo Switch.
Agents of Mayhem is a whole lot of fun but we've seen it all before.
I've said it a hundred times in TellTale reviews in the past but the first episode of the season is usually always its weakest, and as such the seasons tends to get stronger as they continue. Ergo, I remained optimistic for Episode 2. I'm glad I did, 'Giant Consequences' is a far more cohesive, fun experience, even if it still isn't completely essential.
The blue blur returns in Sonic Mania, the hedgehog's crowning achievement
Forma.8 is a game that hit pretty much every platform over the course of the year, and now it's the turn of Nintendo's handheld hybrid Nintendo Switch. Does it translate? Well, yes dear reader, yes it does.
Just like the original, Nidhogg 2 is at its best when played in multiplayer, with little else to recommend it.
Songbringer is a super-tough, rewarding RPG that doesn't quite give enough
