    Stalag 17 Game
    Stalag’s problem is that it feels like it learnt too well the lesson that catch-up mechanisms need to be weak in order to allow the advantage of skill to matter. That’s true, but in a game with some randomness and a relatively low skill ceiling, advantages often come from luck.

    BattleLore: Command
    BattleLore: Command can take its place in the pantheon of must-have board games for iOS or Android. It has the feel of a wargame or miniatures game, but is far more accessible and easy to learn.

    Papers, Please
    This game is the best example I can give of the importance of games as a medium of art: Papers, Please is precision-engineered to encourage you to feel empathy. There’s few films (or works of literature, or musical compositions) that slip you into the shoes of a man in an impossible situation as adroitly as Papers, Please does.

    Frontline : The Longest Day
    It is a competent entry-level affair that nary puts a foot wrong. But in a world of Panzer Corps, Wars & Battles, Commander, and myriad other all-singing, all-dancing mil-sims, Frontline: The Longest Day doesn’t exactly pull a Fred Astaire. This is a bog-standard wargame.

    Pair Solitaire
    Only for a player who can only tolerate simulated standard cards and no opponents would this seem ideal, and it pains me to imagine there are many such people.

    The Witcher Adventure Game
    If this was a 20-30 minute game, maybe, but clocking in at over 2 hours and not being able to save is a death sentence. Knowing that the odds are stacked against finishing a game doesn’t give me much incentive to start one.
