About these games

The Walking Dead: A New Frontier

Once the undead have torn society apart, pockets of civilization begin to surface from the chaos. You play as Javier, a young man determined to track down the family taken from him, and you meet Clementine, a young girl who has suffered a loss of her own. Their fates become bound in an adventure where every choice you make could be your last.

Doctor Who: The Edge of Reality

Doctor Who: The Edge of Reality is a first-person narrative adventure set across space and time. Players wield the sonic screwdriver as the Thirteenth Doctor (voiced by Jodie Whittaker) on a quest to save the universe, while the Tenth Doctor (voiced by David Tennant) also appears. The story takes place in the Chaosverse, where time-breaking glitches threaten reality, and players face Daleks, Weeping Angels and Cybermen along with the new threat CyberReaper. Expect a story-driven mystery, new locations, and a reimagined, expanded story that builds on the previous game The Edge of Time.

Detroit: Become Human

Detroit: Become Human from Quantic Dream is set in Detroit in 2038, in a world where human-like androids are everywhere: they speak, move and behave like people, yet remain machines serving humans. Players control three distinct androids, Kara, Connor and Markus, and see the story through their eyes. Every choice, however small, shapes an intricate branching narrative and decides who lives or dies, as well as the fate of the whole city; if one of them dies, the story still continues. The game offers thousands of choices, dozens of possible endings and moral dilemmas.

Quantum Break

Quantum Break from Remedy Entertainment blends a hard-hitting action game with a live action show, and the choices made in one part dramatically shape the other. After a split second of destruction fractures time itself, two people find they have changed and now possess extraordinary abilities. One travels through time and becomes bent on seizing that power, while the other uses the new gifts to defeat him and mend time before it falls apart beyond repair. Shawn Ashmore plays the hero Jack Joyce, Aidan Gillen his nemesis Paul Serene and Dominic Monaghan Jack's genius brother William, as players navigate epic destruction scenes that skip and rewind in broken time.

Deponia

Deponia is a comedy adventure set in a world turned into a vast garbage dump, where the grumpy Rufus scrapes out a miserable life. Rufus returns the attractive Goal from the higher sector to her husband, finds that he looks exactly like him, and hatches a diabolical scheme to reach the floating city above the clouds. But he falls for her, which curbs his usual unscrupulousness, and the player helps him win over the girl from heaven, with whom he may escape the dump and unexpectedly save the planet. Comic style with hand-drawn HD 2D graphics, bizarre characters, wacky humor and challenging puzzles with hours of dialogue.

Heading Out

You play as the outlaw ‘Interstate Jackalope’, crossing mythic America along its highways on a quest to face the world’s greatest driver. The story branches according to your decisions and offers multiple endings. Along the way you manage fuel, car condition and focus, and choose whether to help strangers, join street races, or evade the police. Visually, the game uses a black-and-white comic style with colourful accents, and the music consists of jazz and rock.
