When I was young and my parents were out, I’d take my dad’s work laptop, hook up the phone cord, and using MSN dial-up, download custom units and maps for Total Annihilation. Fantastic game.

A short rogue-like kind of RTS game with awesome art direction, SFX and music. The pacing is a bit strange and difficulty spikes can hit in odd ways, but it’s worth a look if on sale.

Peter Molyneux’ god complex materialises into a disappointment and eventual abandonware. Had promise, but sadly not much delivery.

Deep and brutal narrative brilliance. Sunless Sea is challenging and a bit grindy but offers rewarding replayability.
