![]() Aren't you curious about a Moomins video game? Reason enough to download the demo and see for yourself.ĭeep Rock Galactic: Survivor Image credit: Ghost Ship Publishing Developer: Funday Games The stealth puzzling is fairly light so far but I'm curious to see how it might develop in the full game. Snuffkin does not murder cops, does not creep up and jam his harmonica so far down their throats that they collapse with desperate wheezing honks, but he's not above making birds attack them. I did not expect Melody Of Moominvalley to become a stealth game as Snuffkin tries to restore nature by dodging cops in the service of the dastardly Park Keeper and destroying these rule-imposing parks. ![]() Hop about, drop rocks in water to make stepping stones, find birds, tootle on your harmonica to delight wildlife, and enjoy the landscape and Sigur Rós warbling. Snufkin: Melody Of Moominvalley Image credit: Raw Fury Developer: Hyper GamesĪlice0: How do you make a video game out of beloved childrens' stories about curiosity and wonder and joy and anger and care and melancholy? The first half of this demo was about what I expected: extremely mild puzzle-platforming as you wander through pretty countryside. It's kind of a Daniel Mullins Game by way of weird flash escape room games and a hint of soup-based creepypasta. Between each of these stages you click through the files on your computer, send a picture of big foot to a cryptid society, play an Obra Dinn homage, break it, fix it, follow adverts on a YouTubelike website until you find an instructional video on how to not eat soup where a soup-eater is sort of. Then you need to find your credit card info. Then it's up again, but you need to reset your account password. It's a puzzle game where you have to buy your friend some soup on an old CRT computer. But the demo is the exact right balance of weird/funny/infuriating/delightful. ![]() It's better that way.īuy Me Some Soup Image credit: weekend Developer: WeekendĪlice Bee: I find that I have a limited tolerance for games that get a bit meta, and who knows? Maybe in the full game Buy Me Some Soup will get on my last nerve. You can read a bit more about it here, but honestly, I'd go in knowing as little as possible. I've had a great time with these missions over the last couple of months at various preview events, and the Nighthaunt one in particular is brilliant fun - a classic 'hold the line' kind of deal where you're fending off big ghost lads from all angles as the camera shifts and turns the battlefield on its head at pivotal moments. You'll be introduced to protagonists the Stormcast Eternals, and two of its trio of enemy factions, the Orruk Kruleboyz, and the spectral Nighthaunt. Katharine: I'm well and truly pumped for Frontier's Warhammer Age Of Sigmar RTS, and Realms Of Ruin's Next Fest demo gives you the first three missions of its single player campaign to tuck into ahead of its launch next month on November 17th. ![]() Warhammer Age Of Sigmar: Realms Of Ruin Image credit: Frontier Developments Developer: Frontier Developments We'll be doing our best to unearth more hidden gems as the week goes on, but for now, here are our initial Next Fest highlights. As with previous Next Fests, we had access to a pretty hefty wodge of this year's Next Fest demos - not all of them, alas, but certainly a lot - so think of this as an initial tasting suggestion, rather than a comprehensive list of everything that's worth playing. You can find them in the big Next Fest list as well, but what we've got here are 12 fresh demos we wanted to bring to your attention on top of all those. Truth be told, loads of games have already jumped the gun on this year's Next Fest, and have been putting their demos live over the course of the last week, such as shellfish Soulslike Another Crab's Treasure, first-person puzzler The Talos Principle 2, motorvania Laika: Aged Through Blood, and big stride-y FPS RoboCop: Rogue City.
