This is a solid deductive reasoning game with a decent user interface. The story is reasonably compelling and well done. Some clues are well hidden, so you will need to pay close attention.

A fantastic evolution of sokoban that introduces new mechanics organically and teaches you the game rules with a natural design.

It's small, but perfectly formed. If you like puzzle games or are studying game design then play it.

Recall back to the year 2000. The Playstation 2 has been released but games are still being released for the original Playstation that are pushing the system to its limits. In the development discussions for Dino Crisis 2 everyone agrees the game should be more action focused. Someone in the dev team suggests they make it a first-person shooter instead of a third person action game. Two people decide to pursue that option and call it Dino Trauma.

This is a worthy entry in the Monkey Island series. It was crafted with a great deal of passion and care.

I personally like the art style, despite the apparent controversy. It has a charm that fits the tone of the game.

The music, speech and sound are all excellent.

The story is mostly great, although perhaps you'll enjoy it more if you've played all the games in the series.

The ending is weak, with a few different potential details depending on your actions but ultimately it's a bit of a cop out. If you value the journey rather than just the destination this is an adventure worth exploring.

This is an excellent detective game, with an unusual but compelling narrative structure. If you like games requiring logical thought above all else then this is worth playing. It's a bit on the short side (less than 6 hours, taking my time and savouring it, not using any hints), but is high quality throughout with no filler and a satisfying ending.

Looking forward to any sequels!

This is a fantastic action-puzzle game. It requires some logical thinking but also the dexterity to execute the plan.

There are four different themed worlds, each with 16 single-screen levels. Each world introduces new elements to keep things fresh. There are 3 collectable feathers in each world. These are not difficult to find, but can be tricky to collect. There's an extra level at the end I don't want to spoil.

There's a few hours of gameplay here, perfect for dipping into as a break from bigger games.

This a great little puzzle game for relaxing over a couple of hours. There are 40 levels, some require a bit of thought, others trial and error. Some levels required some pretty quick movements to succeed, so bear that in mind.

For the asking price this is a definite recommendation for puzzle game fans.

A fun game to chill out to, unfortunately this version is buggy and achievements are broken. Check it out on the PlayStation or Switch stores if you can and want to play.

I give this a thumbs up, because it doesn't deserve a thumbs down - especially for just over £1.

However, I want to clarify for those who might be swayed by the "puzzle" tag that there is absolutely zero challenge to the puzzles in this game. 30 levels took less than 30 minutes to complete, most of the solutions are obvious within seconds. This is absolutely a casual game.

It was a fun thirty minutes and it's cheap, but anyone expecting to have to think very hard are going to be disappointed.

This is an excellent puzzle platform game with a unique mechanic. The controls are simply left, right, jump and (shortly after starting) throw your head which doubles as a power supply. Each room represents a new challenge and a new way to combine these actions. It really needs to be experienced.

It is a very short game, I completed it quite naturally in just over 2 hours while collecting half of the secrets. For me I prefer high-quality over length, and there is zero padding in this game. The designer has implemented some really clever variations on the genre which subvert expectations. None of the puzzles were so difficult that they became frustrating and there's a balance between platforming skill and working out the "trick".

I paid full price for this the day after launch and I don't regret it.
