Nice little game with a big skill tree you can literally grind (get it? - rock crusher - grind)

Have it on a second screen while you watch a film. Entirely playable with a mouse although you occasionally also need the space bar between bosses.

I have over 250 hours in this game on steam, probably another 300 hours on Xbox and iOS.

I like it.

This is nicely presented mash up of Oregon Trail and a simple battle game - your character is moving across a map with a path that appears to be "safe". Leaving that path appears to be punishing but there can be other things off the path.

You start your journey with a small army and by the time you get to the end of the path you need to have a bigger army. Figuring out how to do that is the game.

Football without the boring bits and then with some other bits added.

Don't buy this expecting fifa and don't buy this if your idea of a good football game is one which 100% models the real game without trying to be a good video game. This is a very good video game and probably worth 15% more than whatever the asking price is.

Rarely has a PC game given me arthritic pains like this one. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone with carpal tunnel but for everyone else 5/5.

By the 4th chapter of the campaign you are killing roughly 200 things a minute.

I bought this game at a discount of over 90% and still feel ripped off.

Save your money, go to GOG.COM and buy the original cannon fodder. This one inexplicably takes forever to load the next level and then control just feels too loose.

I missed Arkham Asylum because the demo made it look like it was just a fighting game.

Playing the game now I have to say Batman is awesome. The game is mostly pretty easy and deaths are mostly happening because I don't realise some particular mechanic is at play. Stupid electic floors. I particularly like the fact that the game compartmentalises the enemy interactions so until you go through a door no new enemies will spawn which leads to a game where you have wonderfully flowing fights and then get to take a break with no time stress.

This is a fun little game that provides a couple of hours entertainment. There's practically no depth here but I picked it up in the steam sale for £0.99 and for that price I can't complain.

There's no excuse for not finishing this game - there's no punishment for dying and wandering around working it out for yourself takes a couple of hours.

I can see this game being a speed run game in time. There's no RNG here at all.
