SLACKERJACK – Scorch An Island Some games are just so girly, aren't they? Stupid games - if we want to free the magical Princess of the Fairy Kingdom, we'll do it with a machine gun and some shurikens, OK?

Here's the antidote to all that girly gubbins - it's a game called Scorch An Island, for God's sake. Scorch An Island is a corker of a game ...

SLACKERJACK – Moon Tycoon

Remember how brilliant Sim City was before it got stupid with The Sims and let you control how often a depressed man flushed a toilet? Moon Tycoon puts you back at square one.


Moon Tycoon, for want of a less lazy comparison, is Sim City... on the moon. In Moon Tycoon, you take control of a new lunar colony, and everything to do

SLACKERJACK – Little Rocketman Little Rocketman hasn't got anything to do with Elton John, and that makes us sad since we'd quite like to see a Little Elton John games franchise. Look, if someone can make Little Rocketman, they can make Little Honky Cat, OK?

Now that we've established that Little Rocketman has nothing to do with Elton John, we can tell you that Little Rocketman is ...

SLACKERJACK – Granny In Paradise

Granny In Paradise? Granny In Paradise? Are we the only ones who think that means something about dead grandmothers? Urgh, creepy.


Instead of being a game about the death of your elderly relatives, Granny In Paradise is actually a pretty smart little platform puzzle game. Imagine you're a granny. Now imagine you're in paradise. Now then, Granny in paradise, what would you

SLACKERJACK – Fish Tycoon Having a pet is all well and good, but sometimes you forget to feed them or clean them for six or seven months, then the RSPCA get called and things get very messy. Uh, we heard.

So instead of going through all the trouble of actually owning a pet, why not just download Fish Tycoon instead? Because Fish Tycoon is just beautiful. Fish ...
