3 Minutes to Midnight – The hands that threaten doom!
The world itself feels interesting, and something that could have been lifted from The Day of the Tentacle with the slightly off-shaped buildings, brightly coloured characters, and repeated fourth wall breaks. All those characters were a…
Rusted Moss — Gameplay Hook
Games are heavily weighed on the importance of having a particular mechanic or style that makes them stand out in a crowded space. Rusted Moss seems to have found its niche — for better or worse — in its grappling hook mechanic.
Death or Glory and a chat with Roy Loh
Gameplay itself is quite simple at first glance, with depth being provided by figuring out effective card synergies. Cards have a speed, as well as an attack or defence value. Attack cards do damage, and defence ones block it as you’d…
Listeria Wars – A scientifically accurate tower defence
Listeria Wars is a real time strategy game in which you must defend your body from various bacteria that are ingested by your host body. It happens that your host body is, in this case, a disgusting guy who eats burgers off the floor

Bioframe Outpost – Biovania
The camera is an interesting inclusion, as it’s really the most useful piece of kit you have. This may be a side-scrolling game, but at any point you can activate your camera and take photos of anything on screen, including things that your…
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead is a great stealth-horror tie-in
A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead has the advantage of having one of the best Astral Horror properties at its back, and in a time when horror is having a moment it couldn't have better timing. When I say Astral Horror, I mean that A Quiet Place…
