A bouncing bunny, a terrifying space station, and some Transformer-style robots should be more than enough reason to tempt you into a quick session with this week's online games. Shadow Adventure, Roboracing 2, Astrocreep, Disaster Will Strike, and Mr. Gunface, in a week packed with pure fun. Let's play!
Disaster Will Strike
In its seventh installment, Disaster Will Strike returns with a proven formula of fun and challenge. While it doesn't bring much that's new, the game comes with new levels full of disasters to blow up those rotten and grumpy eggs. In each level, you must use specific elements, like lightning balls or earthquakes, to alter the scenery, whether by destroying platforms or structures in a way that can damage the eggs. In some levels, you'll even have to manipulate several elements at once, where trial and error will be key to victory. If you like puzzle games, this one will give you a good time.
Shadow Adventure
A fun jumping game with bunnies. Shadow Adventure puts you in control of a bouncing rabbit that must grab all the carrots while dodging its shadows, which follow and exactly repeat your steps. You need to grab three carrots per level and reach the white flag before your shadows catch you first. It sounds simple, but you'll soon realize that your own steps can turn against you when all three shadows are on your tail. So think about that before advancing, or your own shadow could put an end to you.
Roboracing 2
In the near future, machines rule the planet. But a small human resistance found the key to reclaiming their world with Roboracer, Transformer-style robots. In Roboracing 2, you pilot one of these robots that must not only destroy the small enemies in your path, but also transform from the car you start with into a super-destructive robot with a beautiful arsenal to break everything. As you destroy enemies, you earn experience and money, which you can then spend on new weapons. At the end of each level, a giant robot boss awaits in a turn-based battle where you'll need to make the most of your robot's weapons. Level up, shoot down all enemy robots, and reach the end of the adventure.
Mr. Gunface
A shooting game where you must destroy every single enemy ship that comes your way. The goal of Mr. Gunface is to complete each wave by eliminating all enemies without being destroyed. Each destroyed enemy drops money that you can collect to spend on upgrades for your ship between levels, making it more powerful. Complete all thirty waves, taking down the powerful bosses along the way to unlock new weapons. A tip: try to get combos to score higher and become the best intergalactic warrior.
Astrocreep
Use the mouse cursor to guide the alien through the rooms of a space station. Your goal in Astrocreep is to evolve into a much more dangerous being capable of creating a nest and infesting the entire space station. To do that, you'll need to eat the entire crew on board to evolve. You have different evolutionary forms to choose from (each with its own traits, like spitting acid that can melt metal or mind control to move objects). A game full of blood, a clear homage to Alien, the film by Ridley Scott.
