All releases are played for the eight minutes allowed in trials and impressions are made from that. Note to developers: we have a backlog of several games to review so there will be a delay for any new reviews until after the New Year. If you still want your new game reviewed we are happy to do so but please expect a delay until we catch up.

Cannon #12 is a static screen shooter in which you must destroy the enemies defenses then grab a bomb and blow them up. The graphics are not bad but the action can be mixed with periods of slow the fast paced action. If you are interested in a different style of shooter you should check this out. Cannon #12 costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.
Chris Unarmed is a platform/puzzle game in which you play the part of Chris who must defeat the evil Mango who is trying to overtake the world. I previewed this game a month or two ago and it is a really fun and challenging platform game with traditional platform jumping elements and some great little puzzles. If you like platform games you will love this, check it out! Chris Unarmed costs 240 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here, a trailer can be found below.
Christmas Tree 3D is an application that lets you decorate a christmas tree.

Dont B Nervous Talking 2 Girls is a game in the loosest terms, although not as loose as the girl you are talking to, seriously she gives out her phone number after a minute of chatting! The acting is bad, the questions are boring and so on, I sat through eight minutes of this and while playing it gave me the idea to make Emuholics guaranteed guide to pulling birds with such classics as ‘Grab your coat you’ve pulled’, ‘You look like an angel. Welcome to Earth.’, ‘Do you have any raisins? How about a date?’ and many many more 🙂 Dont B Nervous Talking 2 Girls costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.
Its say on set is a traditional hand game in Japan where you must match the number of thumbs your opponent(s) show. The game is done well with decent graphics and presentation but I found the rules a bit tricky to follow. It features online play for up to four players so it could be OK if you learn the rules. Its say on set costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.
Johnny Platform Saves Xmas! is a platform game in which you play the part of Johnny who must save Christmas 🙂 This is a sequel to Johnny Platform’s Biscuit Romp which now has full screen graphics, 100 new levels and new skills for Johnny. If you liked the original you will love this, loads of new stuff keeps it fresh and the new voiced sayings are funny. This is a great platform game and you should all go and buy it now, ‘ave it! Johnny Platform Saves Xmas! costs 240 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.

Molly the Were-Zompire is an interactive story where you can choose from multiple actions to progress in the story. If you like these kind of games you may find it interesting otherwise I would give it a miss. Molly the Were-Zompire costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.
Rate My Avatar is an application that lets you rate other peoples Avatars. The full version has online support so you can rate real players Avatars but the trial is limited to randomly generated ones. There is not much to Rate My Avatar and it will rely on a lot of people buying the game to get any fun out of it which I do not think will happen. Rate My Avatar costs 80 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here.
Runic is a match 3 style puzzle game with a few twists, you place the runes from any four angles and they stop when they make contact with another rune. It is a nice twist and leads to some interesting new tactics, graphics and presentation are done well and this is well worth checking out, look out for our review in a few weeks. Runic costs 240 :MSPoints: and more information can be found here, a trailer can be found below.
