SLACKERJACK – Music Catch 2

by Stuart Heritage

Ages ago we featured an online game called Music Catch, and it was lovely – a big exhalation of a game. Music Catch was hypnotic – you had to move your cursor around the screen catching notes that flowed across the screen in time to the music. Now there’s Music Catch 2, which is exactly [...]

SLACKERJACK – The Sims

by Stuart Heritage

Fact: The Sims annoys us massively. You die if you don’t talk to yourself in the mirror for six hours at a time? You die if you don’t flush the toilet? Lies, all of them.

So here’s The Sims. Although, to be fair, this is a much, much better version of The Sims because of all the gritty realism. You sleep. You wee. You watch TV. You have no new emails. You repeat. Forever. That’s pretty spot-on, isn’t it?

SLACKERJACK – I Love Traffic

by Stuart Heritage

Traffic management games might not be up there with online porn and tax returns as popular things to do with computers yet, but I Love Traffic should see to that.

I Love Traffic is, in short, brilliant. And desperately simple too – all you need to do is turn a number of traffic lights on and off to avoid messy crashes. That’s all you need to know about I Love Traffic, other than the fact that – should you want to deliberately cause car crashes – they look quite cool.

SLACKERJACK – Effing Hail

by Stuart Heritage

For years we’ve waited for a game that combines our two biggest loves – meteorology and outright destruction. And here it jolly well is.

It’s Effing Hail. Working on the principle that hail gets larger and larger as warm air pushes it back up into the clouds, Effing Hail asks you to do just that – and then bring it down hard onto a number of structures, smashing them to pieces. Not only is Effing Hail fun and brainy, but it’s harder that it looks, too.

SLACKERJACK – Robot Dinosaurs

by Stuart Heritage

We couldn’t fit the whole title of this online game into the headline, so here it is – Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar.

Isn’t that perfect? Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar. And it’s a belter of a game, too – Robot Dinosaurs That Shoot Beams When They Roar is a shoot ‘em up where you play a robot dinosaur that, well, you understand. That is all you need to know. This is fantastic.

SLACKERJACK – Me And The Key

by Stuart Heritage

Not sure if Me And The Key actually counts as a game, now come to think of it. But bugger it – it’s lovely, so it’s in.

Me And The Key requires to find a retrieve a key in a number of novel ways across several levels. Some keys are found around a penguin’s neck, others inside bubbles, others at the end of Breakout games. It’s the sort of thing that you’ll understand from the moment you start playing it. So play it.

SLACKERJACK – Wave Jumper

by Stuart Heritage

Now that Easter’s over and done with, it can only mean one thing – summer! And what does summer mean? That’s right – jumping over waves.

Funnily enough, that’s what Wave Jumper is about – it’s one of those angle and power distance games where you have to see how far your little man can get when flung off a ramp in a set ofwaterskis. The best thing about Wave Jumper is how easy it is – even the most inept of you should be able to ratchet up a decent score here.

SLACKERJACK – Gears

by Stuart Heritage

Some online games are more than just games. Some online games are designed to sort the men from the boys (if you’re a woman you have to choose between the two). Anyway, Gears is that game. In Gears, you must hook a bunch on gears together to fix a series of machines. You know, like [...]

SLACKERJACK – Guesstimation

by Stuart Heritage

Since all the Slackerjacks have been unusually violent lately, we’ve decided to pare things down a little with our old friend mental arithmetic. Because that’s what Guesstimation is – it’s essentially a summer fete game in electronic form. You’re shown a collection of objects and you have to guess how many there are. You can’t [...]

SLACKERJACK – Dust And Sun

by Stuart Heritage

Here’s a warning – if you’ve got a headache, it’s probably best not to play Dust And Sun. Because, sweet baby Moses, Dust And Sun is loud. And for good reason – in Dust And Sun you’re a lone cowboy under siege from hundreds of gunmen out to kill you and you alone. You can’t [...]
