This reminds me of a puzzle… Sticky Stone Studio has today announced that the long-awaited Switch version of first-person puzzler, Memorrha, will be coming to the console very soon – 13th January, 2023 to be precise. The arrival of this game has been a long time coming and we are excited to see it finally […]

Paper view entertainment. The incredible indulgence of watching a blockbuster movie is that every second of it cost tens of thousands of dollars to produce. Each minute, a couple of million dollars of production glitz is poured into your flickering eyeballs, while you stuff your slack jaw with popcorn. Papetura is both exactly like that […]

Flip and fold.

Created by one person over the course of six years, Papetura stars Pape and Tura (ah, we get it!) in a hand-crafted paper […]

God of War Ragnarok isn’t just a game of familial bonding and bone-crunching brutality, as it often throws puzzles at Kratos and Atreus. Similar to 2018’s God of War, these cerebral roadblocks usually require you to use recently acquired tools and abilities to solve them, and they make for a fun breather after the more […]

Waving through a windo. Cast your mind back to 2009, if you can. It was a Wii year, with Wii Sports, Wii Fit, and Mario Kart Wii dominating the charts, and indie games were really kicking off, with niche-but-beloved games like Flower, Canabalt, and Minecraft (okay, fine, that one’s not niche any more) all being […]

Twinsanity. Aliisha: The Oblivion of Twin Goddesses caught our attention late last year for having a pretty unique co-op mode. Instead of solving puzzles on two separate Switch consoles in handheld mode, one person uses the Joy-Con in docked mode, and the other uses the Switch in handheld mode. And we’ll get to try it […]
