Tetravex

Tetravex

That one game that no one ever heard of (unless you still use/remember windows 3.1). This is a game about moving squares to make the colours connect up. Each square has 4 colours on it one per side. Each side has to be next to one of the same colour. It's simple right? Wrong this game can be easy when it's 3x3 but when it gets bigger then it gets a whole lot harder. This game can be downloaded on android [here] for free. I recommend getting it if you need something to kill time.

8bitdo zero

[8bitdo] is a company that makes bluetooth games controllers. It specializes in retro looking controllers. It can be used to play android games (most things work). If you want to run source ports however then you will have to use the [Beloko] ones because the [4a] ones don't support controllers. The controller works a dream with minimal lag. It does however take a while to set up, and may need to be setup a few times before it works properly. But I assure quality. If anyone needs help setting up their controller then please leave me a message, and I will try to help you with it.

This controller is a bit different from the other 8bitdo controllers as it doesn't have a retro aesthetic. But this controller also stands out from the other controllers because of it's size. This controller is the size of half of the palm of my hand. It is tiny, great for people with small hands. Even so it is very comfortable, and very cute :3

It also claims to have a battery life of 20 hours, which is amazing for such a tiny device. It probably doesn't use much power though. This controller is also quite cheap, I got mine for about £10 (little over $14 (US)). This makes this controller quite handy to just carry around in case of an emergency situation where you need a bluetooth controller. I definitely recommend this.

URU

URU

Hello everyone just yesterday I found that a game I have played for ages is now available to download for free. This game is called [URU]. It takes place in the MYST series. It revolves around exploration and puzzle solving. The graphics are very good, and especially for 2003, it does however suffer from a bit of mouse lag and frame drop at higher resolutions. It isn't very noticeable though and the game still remains playable. The story is very good, and if you have read or are reading the MYST books this game will help you visualize the locations described in there. This game is very peaceful and is a great way to escape reality for a while.



For the total price of completely free this game is definitely worth playing. I highly recommend it. It also has an amazing community of people that will be sure to help you with puzzles.
