SLACKERJACK – Bomberman
Of course, in these paranoid, suspicious times, the once revered Bomberman now carries rather more political connotations. Is he a terrorist? Is he working for Osama Bin Laden? Why exactly is he bombing stuff? Time was when we wouldn't be so damning of this cheerfully destructive chap. Look! He's blowing stuff up! Funny little maniac. And the great news is that fans of Bomberman can now play online. All you need are arrow keys on your keyboard, and a sharp mind, capable of solving puzzles. Just try not to get yourself stuck behind one of your own bombs. We can categorically state that your little pixelated hero won't find himself pleasuring a mob of vestal virgins.
SLACKERJACK – Scope: First Blood
Everyone loves a good old-fashioned stick-figure sniper game, don’t they? Because snipers are cool and stick figures are... um, look we don’t know where we’re going with this. Anyway, Scope: First Blood is a stick figure sniper game... WITH A DIFFERENCE. Actually, we’re overselling it - you still have to shoot things in Scope: First Blood, it’s just that they’re not always ...
SLACKERJACK – Canabalt

SLACKERJACK – Cyclomaniacs
Sometimes all you want is a nice big race, isn’t it? Isn’t it? it had better be, because that’s what Cyclomaniacs is. It’s a bike race, controlled with the same arrow-key system as every other bike game you’ve ever played. But what makes Cyclomaniacs special is the amount of other racers there are. You’re just one of 14 cyclists, and to keep ...

The way that you kill werewolves in Vox Populi, Vox Dei is amazing. Without hyperbole, it might be the most satisfying kill method we’ve ever played. We can’t overstate how ...
SLACKERJACK – Ricochet Kills
Guns are dangerous, everyone knows that. If you own a gun, the first lesson you should learn is to use it responsibly. Don’t just fire it into the air and let the bullet take out people willy-nilly. But, if you do want to do that, then Ricochet Kills is a good place to start. Imagine Bloons, but with a man with a ...

SLACKERJACK – 8-Bit Junkie
Alien Vs Predator, Freddy Vs Jason, Pride & Prejudice Vs Mothra - Hollywood is always trying to find ways to mangle two beloved hits together. And 8-Bit Junkie does exactly the same thing, but with a difference - it’s actually good. You see, 8-Bit Junkie is essentially Pac-Man Vs Space Invaders. And flipping ace it is, ...
