It's no wonder that Frogmind won so many awards for the mobile incarnation of this game
Combining soothing tracks for when you're exploring, with some suitably rousing tracks when engaged in combat, Legend of Kay's music is constantly a pleasure to your ears
The cell-shaded graphics are beautiful, and the soundtrack and sound effects are notably pleasing to the ears
I quickly found myself addicted to Dr. Mario: Miracle Cure – it's colourful, addictive and has some cool music too
The PS3 version was released in 2012 but no new content has been added despite the long wait
A lot of the time, you can't afford to take a single hit as you'll either die instantly, or be left with so little time that you can't possibly finish the level anyway
With its near photorealistic visuals and great voice acting, it's a unique game that I wholeheartedly urge any Playstation 4 owner to experience once
Every now and again we like losing because then when we win it's the sweetest victory, though with This War of Mine it probably wouldn't feel like a victory at all
The bosses of No Time to Explain are he highlight of the game. Wonderfully designed, these boss battles are an accomplished throwback to platform games of old, where you had to study their attack patterns to work out your strategy for defeating them
The fun you get from Quiplash is only limited by the people you play it with. The prudish amongst us may get easily offended by other people's answers – and they'll also probably lose with their more straight-laced responses!
Astebreed is a fantastic indie old school shooter that is fun for both veterans and those new to the genre
Some levels are too linear with only one route, though exploration and replayability is encouraged by the presence of secrets in each level and a number of preset challenges
The few pitfalls of Coffin Dodgers are mostly outweighed by its tight racing experience, unique story and characters, and abundance of game modes which help to set it apart and hold its own against other kart racers
Easily the best aspect of Hohokum is the euphoric joy you feel when you find something new, whether it's a kaleidoscope-style colour show, a gateway to a different dimension or simply a funny sound
To say that Spectra is addictive may be a bit of an understatement
The emphasis on puzzle and exploration coupled with the 2D side-scrolling presentation is reminiscent of traditional adventure games of the 90s
Every twist and turn you discover feels like an achievement; like you've just made a major breakthrough in a case that has remained inexplicably unsolved
Despite Shadow Warrior having its ties firmly set into the no-nonsense first person shooters of old, it also brings to the table a healthy amount of modern gameplay innovations as well as a few tricks of its own
For those who enjoy a challenging puzzle game that requires a good amount of thinking, then 0rbitalis is worth checking out
The game keeps you engaged with the story and delivers high octane action that gets the pulse racing
