Virtual Morality is an interactive first person murder mystery movie in which you are the protagonist and make choices that directly affect the narrative.

Set in the type of college party that only happens in American movies, populated with all your stereotypical cliques,  Virtual Morality is essentially an FMV choose your own adventure with the story branching out in multiple directions dependant on your choices.  Do you stay with the popular clique or go with the inquisitive loner?  Do you help the girl or chase the killer?  The choice it yours.

As Virtual Morality is essentially an interactive movie, the story and acting quality are paramount, and thankfully it doesn’t disappoint.  There’s the occasional bad performance (which actually adds to the enjoyment), but on the whole the cast, editing and story are great, certainly warranting multiple playthroughs to discover everything that’s going on at the party.  

There’s a nice balance between tension and laugh out loud humor throughout Virtual Morality.  It’s a great concept that we can’t wait to see more of, and it also contains one of the best lines ever spoken on video:  ’Listen up you sons of bitches, there’s a goddamn knife in my head and you need to do something about it now!’

Dude, Stop is a fun little game in which you play a REAL monster – the type of person who leaves the toilet seat up, removes peoples bookmarks and wears socks with sandals.

Taking the form of short single screen puzzles, in Dude, Stop you must try to be as monstrous as possible, by performing acts of pure evil.  You’re the guy who leaves the salt lid slightly loose, or deliberately uses Internet Explorer.

In short you’re the worst human being on the planet, a true monster who will stop at nothing to ruin peoples lives.  But it feels so good being bad…

Noodle Ramen is a charming little game in which you play an adorable little ramen monster who is trying to steal Ramen Man’s food without getting eaten itself.

You swim around ramen mans bowl, pressing X to dive and avoid the chopsticks, then releasing X to jump up out of the water and swallow some ramen.  Your aim is to eat 15 ramen without getting caught.  Once you eat those 15 ramen you might not be quite so easy to swallow…

Noodle Ramen impresses with it’s fun gameplay and wonderfully whimsical premise.  It’s reasonably easy to eat 15 ramen, but can you eat more ramen than Ramen Man?

Have a Cow is a very silly experience in which you shoot down choppers with milk fired from your udders and eat everything in sight, growing bigger and bigger with each bite until you reach gargantuan proportions.

Playing a little like an even more demented bovine version of Katamari Damacy, each day you must consume enough food to grow big enough to eat a designated target object. To do this you must feed on smaller items and work your way up, munching your way through chickens, horses, people, tanks, buildings and some ridiculously massive objects at the end that we won’t spoil the surprise of.

Taking around 10 minutes to play, Have a Cow is a riot, an object munching mad cow Katamari that’s sure to make you smile.

Monstre De Coiffure is a very silly monster makeover game in which you give haircuts and apply make-up to a procession of grotesque monsters.

Your unenviable task is to make each monster look like the mannequin on the right hand side of the screen.  To you this you can give it different haircuts and apply hair dye, make-up, mascara and lipstick.  You can’t waste any time though as you’re on the clock and have to get as many monster makeovers done before the timer counts down.

It’s great fun giving monsters makeovers in Monstre De Coiffure - sure, a haircut and a bit of lipstick probably won’t transform them into supermodels, but monsters have a right to be pretty too!

Everyday Misanthrope is a wonderfully wicked choose-your-own-misery simulation in which you must aim to spread as much misery and ruin as many lives in a day as possible!

Taking the form of a choose your own adventure, with you given a choice of misery inducing actions, then you watch with glee as they play out.  You must be strategic with your actions though -  different actions require different amounts of ‘Misery Tokens’, of which you only have a certain amount of to use in the day.  You don’t want to blow all your Misery Tokens too early, far better it spread them out over a full misery-filled day.

With a play-through lasting 5-10 minutes, Everyday Misanthrope certainly warrants multiple playthoughs as you try different actions and see how they play-out with misery-inducing effects.  The way your actions affect others certainly rises a smile - especially when you get a full breakdown of the lives you’ve ruined at the end.  It’s surprisingly good fun being a miserable git!

Los Angeles Shark is a very silly side-scrolling action game in which you control a super tough shark going on a rampage across the beaches of LA, wrecking everything in sight, from boats to jet planes!

The gameplay in Los Angeles Shark is simple and silly, just swim and jump out of the water causing as much death and destruction as possible. Any people or vehicle is fair game as you go on your feeding frenzy.  It’s a wonderfully over the top game with a great art style, that revels in it’s own ridiculousness (any game where The Hoff makes an appearance really can’t be taken too seriously.) It’s Ecco The Dolphin and Jaws on steroids with a large dose of crazy carnage.

Iron Sunset is a fun little oddity in which you must decide which person to shoot in a line up, as they all attempt to sway you by spouting lines that have been written by other players.

There are no right and wrong choices when choosing which prisoner to shoot, just shoot which ever one you feel like shooting.  Maybe you think they’re lying, maybe you don’t like their attitude or maybe you don’t like how they look.

Once you’ve shot your prisoner then it’s your turn to write some lines of dialogue, and see how long your character lasts in the firing line against other players.  It’s an interesting premise, that feels like fun social experiment as you experience both ends of the barrel.  What will your last words be?

Anatomically Incorrect Dinosaurs is a thoroughly ridiculous game in which you play a mad scientist creating some of the most spectacularly inaccurate mutant dinosaurs and unleashing them on the world.

To label Anatomically Incorrect Dinosaurs as ‘silly’ is a massive understatement.  It’s clearly come from the mind of someone who dances along the fine line between madness and genius every day.  What they’ve created is a fantastic genetically modified masterpiece that’s mad as a box of (prehistoric) frogs.
