GAME PREVIEW – Worms Revolution (PC)

By Marty Mulrooney

Worms Revolution

Worms Revolution is the latest instalment in the hit video game series that began with the original Worms turn-based artillery game in 1995. Seventeen years later, in October 2012, Team17 plans to release Worms Revolution – which has been developed from the ground up and features a brand new game engine. After some dodgy 3D instalments – we’re looking at you Worms 3D – and several HD re-releases of the original Worms games, only one question remains. Can Worms Revolution revolutionise the series and return it to its roots?

The Walking Dead: Long Road Ahead is the third episode of a five part episodic video game based upon Robert Kirkman’s The Walking Dead series of comic books. Convicted felon Lee Everett must once again do whatever it takes to protect the little girl in his care whilst dealing with bandits, zombies and rising tensions caused by a traitor within his group. The Walking Dead: The Game asks players: what would you do? Episode 3 pushes that scenario to breaking point, then stamps on its head until it stops moving.

To the Moon packshot 3D exp

Alternative Magazine Online reviewed indie RPG/adventure game To The Moon towards the end of last year, describing it as “yet another shining example of an indie developer, free from the shackles of a mainstream gaming studio, weaving pure magic.” Created by Kan Gao and Freebird Games, the game tasks players with controlling two doctors – Dr. Eva Rosalene and Dr. Neil Watts – as they rewrite the memory of an elderly man named Johnny, whose dying wish is to go to the moon… On the 6th July 2012, Lace Mamba Global released the retail edition of To The Moon throughout the UK and Ireland. Priced at a recommended retail price of £14.99, this beautifully packaged retail edition also includes the full game soundtrack on CD.
