Time to Wake Up is an eye-catching puzzle adventure where your surroundings shift with every blink
I am intrigued by Farsight , a nervy (if trendily) liminal space explorer announced at Not E3’s Horror Game Awards Showcase. It tugs on a fear I’ve never had, but will probably start thinking about at every future Specsavers visit: being dragged into that distant red-roofed house shown in optometry exams, and hunted by the spooks within. However, I’ve also recently been made aware of another first-person, eye-related psychological indie thriller, Time to Wake Up. And, well, this one has a Steam demo , so... Read more

Mym's Sword is a delightfully ominous Zelda-style action platformer with magic rings and knife-wielding raccoons
In curious Zelda-flavoured action-platformer Mym's Sword, you are a blue dog who fell through a cavern roof into a temple containing a magic sword. The dog's name is Nora. Who is Mym, then? Possibly some kind of ancient evil, which you are on a quest to awaken, "for better or worse". To unlock the sword's secrets, you'll need to visit three twisty ruins, scattered across five areas comprising around 300 single screen rooms. There are also magic rings that confer boosts such as greater odds of a health heart drop, but as a digit-deficient canine, you'll need to collect "helper's hands" before you can equip those rings. Gosh, that's a bit creepy. Bad dog? Read more
