So much mystery that we needed help getting past the opening puzzle. 321Дeveloped as a mystery adventure point-and-click style of game, 321 revels in shrouding itself in mystery.

I didnвЂ™t play the game long enough to see how the story of crime and corruption plays out, but the comic book art style and suitably gruff voice acting is a lot of fun. There are echoes of PaperвЂ™s Please in the themes, as well as the day-to-day action вЂ“ which plays out like a streamlined management sim. Do you rock the boat and bring down the crooks in city hall, or do you play things by the book and keep in pocket with the politicians? You play as a retiring police chief, ordered by the corrupt city Mayor to keep things ticking until you scuttle off. IвЂ™m a sucker for pulpy noir, so crime caper come management sim This is the Police is right up my steam-soaked, cardboard box-ridden back alley. Despite taking place on a 3D plane, DickвЂ™s illustrations are entirely 2D and bring hand-made charm to what could have just been a fun pool simulation. While Mike RobinsonвЂ™s creation plays wonderfully, with a twin-stick control scheme anyone can just pick up and play, itвЂ™s Angus DickвЂ™s animations that really bring Pool Panic to life. No, there arenвЂ™t rocket-powered cue balls rolling around here, but in multiplayer the chase to sink as many balls as you can before potting the black and then yourself certainly echoes the chaos PsyonixвЂ™s game can brings out in players, and thatвЂ™s before you get into a lengthy single-player campaign. Tipped as вЂњthe worldвЂ™s least realistic pool simulatorвЂќ, Pool Panic brings the hectic gameplay of Rocket League to the world of pool. The World Is Flat is a great addition to this expanding area. Animal-based balancing game Fabulous Beasts has been getting a lot of attention for mixing tower building with iPad strategy, while festivals like Now Play This curate console games beside physical installations. Games that straddle physical and digital worlds are having something of a moment right now.

The aim is to find countries and cities, testing both geographical knowledge and your ability to make sense of a squished cartography. You swivel a large inflatable orb, and a flattened map on a screen contorts on some obscure axis. A geography exam played with a yoga ball is probably the best way to describe The World is Flat.
