Strategy, 2D, Singleplayer, Top-down.

An unusual real-time strategy game developed by independent studio Uncle Cracker. The action in the game is presented from a top-down perspective. What makes Particle Fleet: Emergence different from other titles is the fact that the enemies have a form of a mass created from hundreds of particles flooding the screen. Their actions are controlled by an advanced physics engine which ensures that the particles correctly envelope the encountered objects. It also maintains the behavior of the group when it is attacked by the player. The key to success is to develop the correct strategy and observe the activity of the unusual opponents.

The battles are fought with spaceships equipped with cannons, rocket launchers and laser cannons. The ships can be customized.

A sequel to Shadow Bug, a mobile arcade game by Muro Studios. In Shadow Bug Rush you play as a ninja worm, who makes his way through dangerous level. Like in classic platform games, you explore 2D locations, fight enemies and avoid traps. The controls are noteworthy, sine you hold you device horizontally and determine where the protagonist is going by touching the screen with your finger. To attack an enemy, you have to click on them. The levels have been developed in such a way so that you can avoid touching the ground completely — the protagonist can jump from enemy to enemy. The maps are randomly generated and they never end, making beating records the main objective in the game. Your final score is calculated based on the distance you travel, combos, and gathered treasures. The game also features interesting visuals — the foreground shapes are completely black, while the backgrounds are colorful and detailed.

A building and demolition simulator created by an independent team known as Noble Muffins and published by PlayWay. Demolish & Build Company 2017 casts the player in the role of a company owner who both builds and demolishes various structures. Gameplay as such was based on two pillars here - destroying buildings and constructing new ones in their place in order to rent the new buildings. The game is played from the first-person view, allowing the player to grab a hammer and attack the walls by himself or plant explosives in critical structural points. Heavy machinery is at the player's disposal as well - one can make use of bulldozers, cranes, excavators, loaders, as well as steamrollers and trucks. Spectacular destruction is guaranteed by the capabilities of an advanced physics engine. Simultaneously, the player has to take care of running the business, which includes managing the workers appropriately, as well as buying new tools and machines for money gained both from renting the buildings they constructed and acquiring special bonuses for being an effective destroyer.

The title focuses on multiplayer mode, as it offers a complex matchmaking system, social options and in-game chat.

Genital Jousting is an unusual party game developed by Free Lives and published by Devolver Digital. We take part in various minigames, with up to eight players in local or online mulitplayer mode. What is unusual about the game is that we are controlling flaccid penises with wiggly anuses. Our "protagonist" can be dressed up in various clothes which will make him somewhat unique and easy to distinguish among the other "characters" controlled by the rest of the players. Our goal is to penetrate our opponents' genitals and at the same time avoid being penetrated. However, that is not the only thing to do in Genital Jousting. The game offers a couple of different minigames, like racing, herding the dachshunds, or unusual football. Due to the erotic themes, the game is for adults only.

Action, FPP, Indie Games, Internet, Multiplayer, Stealth, TPP, Free-to-play.

A multiplayer action game featuring elements of stealth, created by SIM720 - a British developer. The game focuses on two teams of players competing against each another - one team consists of agents and the other of rogues. The mechanics were based loosely on the classic hide & seek game. Rouge Operatives is played in rounds, during which the job of the agents is to track and eliminate all the rogues; the latter, on the other hand, have to remain undetected until the end of the round. What is innovative about this game however, is that although the agents are rather typical figures running around with firearms, the rogues were gifted with a unique ability to disguise themselves as different objects of the in-game environment, such as barrels, buckets, packages, shovels, rakes or ladders. This special ability allows the rogues to become one with the environment, which makes it easier to stay hidden. Additionally, both sides can make use of the various power-ups scattered throughout the maps.

A turn-based strategy for mobile devices, developed by Ludia, based on the license of a classic SF series Battlestar Galactica. The story repeats the events seen in the TV series.

When it comes to mechanics, Battlestar Galactica: Squadrons is a turn-based space strategy, sprinkled with elements found in card games. The player collects spaceships, using them to participate in space battles. Additionally, we can upgrade our fleet with parts salvaged from defeated enemy units. The individual ships have been balanced according to “rock-paper-scissors” rules: unit that is effective against a certain type of enemy will be completely useless against a different type.
