Supernauts Review
Where Supernauts differs from other free-to-play world-building games like Clash of Clans or The Sims Freeplay, is that it doesn’t constrain your creativity with set structures.

The game takes place on an asteroid. Controlling your Supernaut you use the "zapper" - a device with a wonderfully '70…

Bridge Constructor Médiéval Review
Mechanically, Bridge Constructor Médiéval adds very little to the existing Bridge Constructor formula. As before, building your bridge to cross the game’s various chasms is a simple process of selecting the desired materials from the menu and then tracing them into existence within a virtual grid.
