Arcuz

Arcuz is a great little pixelated game. It’s an RPG (but they call it ARPG, can you guess why?).  It has purposely hand drawn pixelated art and is a flash game. It’s controls may seem a little awkward at times, and the save doesn’t save, but don’t let that put you off (you just need to keep the tab open). A nice game, but has never really been spell-checked. Also there are other versions of the game, yet there all the same storyline, so it’s a little bit confusing.

Alien Hominid

Alien Hominid was released on the Gameboy advance, later on the PC on the website Newgrounds (although it was removed after a while), on the Playstation 2, on the gamecube, on the nintendo ds, on the playstation and finally on the Playstation Portable. It is a fun and funny 2d side scrolling beat ‘em’ up. You get different weapons but if you don’t like the weapons you can always bite the enemies head off or knife them. The graphics are overall very nice. You play as an alien getting chased by the FBI. It tries to put comedy into all of it. At every chance it gets it puts in strange characters, weird bosses and disturbing facial expressions.

Minecraft

http://mojang

Minecraft is a first person/3^rd person mining/crafting game (With a little bit of scariness and violence to make it a bit more fun). The graphics are a little on the old school side, but it is still very exciting. You might want to beware that there can be some rude comments on the play screen. Mining is extremely exciting and dangerous, in more ways than one. The whole idea of Minecraft is exciting because of mobs, random spawn points, completely unique random caves etc!!! It is also out for tablets, PC, Xbox360, Ipads and PS3. The PS3 and tablet/Ipad version are a big letdown unfortunately, with tablets/Ipads lacking most of the Minecraft thrill (and mods, texture packs etc) and PS3’s lacking mods and is just generally being extremely buggy. Minecraft’s newest version on the PC really bothers me, due to lag and the fact that I cannot download any mods or packs, not even their forge works. Minecraft Xbox 360 is the best out of the ‘Big deal consoles’ but lacks mods. It makes up for it by giving your Xbox 360 avatar some pretty amazing stuff.

Poptropica

http://poptropica

Poptropica is a side scrolling online cartoon adventure. You go to different islands on a hot air balloon. It has limited gameplay, but makes up for that with good graphics, massive missions and brilliant island design. It was made by different authors, which means some islands are to do with the characters in the books they’ve written. Unfortunately they do not update all the islands, so a lot of the islands take a bit of getting used to, as they don’t have the same gameplay as the others. The character creation is one of the best bits of it, especially as you get to wear a vest and a pair of underwear, of course you can make your character look whatever you like. You gain extra items later on in the game. It requires no downloads, which is a benefit to your computer’s storage. The graphics are very basic and simple, yet in some islands (namely great Pumpkin Island) the graphics are beautifully hand drawn (apart from your character, who remains fairly basic).
