Donuts Delivery really cares about the placement of donuts
I don’t know about everyone on Earth, but when I go into a donut shop,I don’t really care about where the donuts are physically locked in the box. I guess things would change though if I had teleporting donuts, like in Donuts Delivery. …

Summer in Mara — mañana mañana
Summer in Mara successfully imitates the dream of living in a tropical paradise, a potentially stereotypical view that the Caribbean-like way of life is one of relaxing, sun-filled days with very little worry or concern entering the fray.
Ultimate Admiral: Age of Sail is an 18th Century Toybox
The peak of rank-and-file warfare during the Napoleonic Wars has always been an area of great interest to me, and whilst the number of Imperial atrocities committed during that age is enough to raise more than a few eyebrows, I still love…
Poly Bridge 2 — There’s a reason I didn’t go into architecture
When I was a wee kid I had a demo for a game called Pontifex. This was my intro into bridge building games — a genre I hold dearly to this day. Throughout the years I had issues with getting a hit of bridge-building since nothing seemed…
Chocolate Fix is a cute, single player logic game
I’ve found another food game! We’ve played a few other chocolate-themed board games (like Chocolate Factory and Chocolatiers) while at tabletop, but Chocolate Fix is a single-player experience where you take on puzzles in an attempt to find…
Choose wealth and notoriety, or take the moral high ground in Beholder 2

Dawn of Fear may be the worst game you’ll play in 2020
I honestly can’t imagine a better title for a survival horror game than Dawn of Fear. I can only imagine the excitement around the development team associated with this game since I can’t help but feel that the title is the one redeeming…
Project Warlock — Killing Time
If you can tolerate Project Warlock’s issues as I could, then you’ll be in for a brilliant throwback game that deserves attention. Great soundtrack, great visuals, and great combat, just let down by some technical issues.
Property Brother Home Design — I miss American TV
I used to watch a lot of Property Brothers back when I was in America, where it featured on HGTV each week. I love the dynamic between the two twins — one a real estate agent, the other a renovator — as they help couples and small families…

Skelattack — Difficulty Spikes, Literally
Graphically the style forgoes the ultra-clean, high-resolution approach seen in other recent platformers, but instead utilises a hand-drawn effect and a somewhat faded palette reminiscent of early 1950’s cartoons and put to good effect in…
