The Snow Fable: Mystery of the Flame has the generosity of spirit to create a waterfall of matches, when all you’ve done is matched three yellow gems in a line.
Grindstone is a bloody fantastic (in all senses) puzzle game, where you take the role of Jorj, a dungeon raider and grindstone gatherer, as he chains together similarly coloured ‘creeps’. We had to hold in all that gushing praise, for a moment, when we were offered the chance to interview Dan Vader, director of Grindstone at Capybara Games. Nobody likes a suck-up.

Epic adventures come in many forms these days, giving you an important choice to make. Do you go off to explore the Lands Between in Elden Ring? Perhaps embark upon a journey across the ravaged environments of Horizon Forbidden West? Or maybe a trip to Tux and Fanny’s garden to find a way to inflate a football? You might think the latter is a joke, but Tux and Fanny professes to be an epic point and click adventure. Seriously. Can it live up to its own hype?
If you were ever put through the wringer by Inside or Limbo, and fancy climbing through again, then White Shadows will duly oblige. It’s a magnificent lightshow.
