Review by Andrew M. One of the best things about the tablet market today is ability for developers to take our childhoods and turn them into iOS apps. I’ve got fond memories of epic games of Monopoly, Trivial Pursuit and Risk, and now I can now relive it anywhere. Not…
Read MoreIt has been a while since we’ve had an authentic Warhammer experience. THQ mishandled the license with extreme prejudice, even going so far to publish a game that was a generic action clone with that awful Space Marine game that I’ve tried to purge from my memory. So as far…
Read MoreI love having Agricola on the iPad. If you’ve ever played the board game (especially with expansions) then you’ll relate to this; the physical game has so many pieces that it can feel like it takes longer to set up than actually play. It is of course worth that set…
Read MoreWhat a brilliant game Crimson Shroud is. Yasumi Matsuno (of Vagrant Story and Final Fantasy XII fame) has done what his compatriots, Yoot Saito (Aero Porter) and Goichi Suda (Liberation Maiden) were not able to in the Guild01 compilation – build a small game that is not only innovative and…

Rather than a genuine attempt to capture Dungeons & Dragons in a board game format (which it has already achieved admirably with games like Dungeon Command), Lords of Waterdeep is a crack at a Euro-style game. Aside from…
Read MoreWelcome to a new feature at Digitally Downloaded! We’re gamers of every kind here, but one thing is constant amongst us – we go to where the good gaming is. A lot of gamers forget that games go beyond the TV console, so each week we’re going to highlight one…
Read MoreBattleship is the perfect game for the iOS platform. It’s easy to pick up and play for short bursts of fun, and it’s easy to design a multiplayer experience around it. There’s been a few attempts at making Battleship games for the platform, as you’d expect. None are as good…
Read MoreThe name, ‘Dungeon Twister’ is a touch deceptive. It doesn’t have a whole lot to do with Twister, the game that has been giving teenagers a legitimate excuse to bump and grind with one another for years now. Rather, it’s a new kind of board game, and the physical version…
