When 900 words is too much and about 250 will do.
Save Room will appeal to a certain type of Gamer. When it floated by me on an email, I knew straight away I was one of them.

Shootas, Blood and Teef draws on the rich tapestry of the Warhammer 40k Universe.
There have been many, various FPS, Turn-Based games and my personal favourite the dungeon crawler Inquisitor.
On paper it’s a match made in heaven.
The opportunity to step into the heavy boots of Space Orks, crack some bad Dad jokes and blow shit up, will float many boats.

Destiny’s Sword describes itself as a “living graphic novel”
To me it’s more akin to the Choose Your Own adventure books that were common place when I was growing up – and that’s not a bad thing, believe me.
Told through comic book-style panels, Destiny’s Sword has you commanding a planetary defense force as it works to keep the peace on the planet Cyris.

What’s better than yearning after some retro Turrican goodness? Playing all the Turrican versions on Switch of course!
Turrican holds strong ground in my Amiga memories, I know I played a couple of them right through. Although I cant remember exactly which episodes they were.
That said the gameplay was always strong, wide open levels, secrets, enemies and upgrades. There was a forgiving respawn system and enemies stayed dead, which was nice.

I have to be honest, I don’t tend to sit alone in the dark with a horror/survival games any more.
Sure, Resident Evil and Silent Hill are memorable experiances from my “gamer history”, but as I have got older they not experiances I need to revisit. Honestly, just too scary.
Fobia – St Dinfna Hotel is drawing inspiration from these giants of the genre, but with slightly less… intensity.

A chess-based puzzle game from small developer Daisy Games. Sokochess will appeal to gamers who love chess and the challenges that the game brings.
Sadly, I am not a gamer who loves chess and the challenges that it brings. Chess, if I’m being completely honest, just confuses me.
