It turns out you don't need millions of dollars and years of development time to create a really original, cool game. Catch-22 was created in 48 hours during Game Jam 2012, and it may be one of the most brilliant puzzle titles we've seen in a while.
There's a website out there where you can get a randomly generated band or rap name made for you. Really, it just throws a bunch of random words into a digital blender and then spits something back out at you. I can't help but think that's the route the makers of the platformer Super Lemonade Factory went to come up with a name. It just makes no sense. Of course, that doesn't mean it's a bad game, now does it?
Ever wish for a game that combined the slingshot physics of Angry Birds, the star collecting of Cut the Rope, and the barrel cannons of Donkey Kong Country? If so, you have very specific tastes, and Gara Entertainment's first physics puzzler, Oh My Nuts, is a match made in heaven. Even if this zany combination sounds like a disaster at face value, Oh My Nuts' physics-based squirrel-throwing app delivers an unexpectedly charming, albeit short, experience.
It's sort of amazing that a company could find an idea like the one explored in Stacking and make it work at all, let alone so well. Stacking presentes a steampunk meets Charles Dickens style world populated entirely by Russian matryoshka dolls (the nesting dolls that sit inside each other).

Being British means I should automatically dabble in a bit of Doctor Who, or at least have an opinion on the long-running sci-fi series. Not to feed the stereotype, but to those two statements I say "I do", and "it's good fun". So the idea of a Doctor Who online multiplayer game is something that definitely interests me.
Ninjas are meant to be stealthy dealers of silent death. However, if they're anything like the characters in Shinobi ZIN then you can likely see them coming a mile away and dispatch them with minimal difficulty. What starts off as a promising action-puzzler quickly collapses under its own weight as it tries to be too clever for its own good.
It seems like we've been reviewing a lot of indie 2D platformer puzzle games recently. Vessel and Out There Somewhere come to mind immediately. It's like there's been an explosion of this specific sub-genre over the past little while, and it doesn't look like it's slowing down any time soon. One man game developer warrior Kyle Pulver recently announced another entry in the genre called Offspring Fling, so what sets this one apart from the pack?
