This Week In Games: Hey, We Should Totally Check Out Kalimba

It’s a bit of a dead week in terms of big releases, so you could give your wallet a breather. But I’m considering checking out Kalimba, which a lot of people seem to really like. Other than that? It’s a bit of a wasteland this week…


Airport Simulator 2015 (PC)

What is it? Exactly what it says on the tin.
Should you care? These simulator games are slowly going mainstream. It’s crazy.


Assassin’s Creed® Chronicles: China (PC)

What is it? Hey, it’s that Assassin’s Creed game I’d forgotten about. The 2D scrolling one.
Should you care? To be honest, I don’t know enough about it. Click the link above and check it out if you’re interested.


Convoy (PC)

What is it? Imagine FTL with Mad Max road battles.
Should you care? Cool concept. Don’t know enough about it. If you loved FTL you might want to investigate.


Environmental Station Alpha (PC)

What is it? Is this a Metroid clone? Because I am so down with that.
Should you care? Man, this looks really, really cool. Check it out.


Fermi’s Path (PC)

What is it? A game about sub-atomic space which is really a cover for a twitchy reflex infinite runner style game.
Should you care? Looks really cool actually. I love the visual style.


Judge Dredd: Countdown Sector 106 (PC)

What is it? A new licensed gamebook from the Kings of the gamebook — Tin Man Games.
Should you care? Don’t know too much about this one, but Tin Man Games are really good at this kind of thing.


Kalimba (PC)

What is it? A 2D platformer that is apparently brilliant.
Should you care? People seem to be raving about this. Could be the best game released this week.


Kiai Resonance (PC)

What is it? It’s a game that seeks to replicate the style of samurai duels.
Should you care? People seem to like it, but I feel as though it looks pretty unresponsive and weird.


Mind Snares: Alice’s Journey (PC)

What is it? A weird looking adventure game that looks pretty.
Should you care? Certainly an interesting looking game. I have no idea what the hell is going on to be quite honest.


WE ARE DOOMED (PC)

What is it? A beautiful looking twin-stick shooter.
Should you care? It’s been a while since I’ve played something like this. I think it looks gorgeous.
