Recently, I have been playing a lot of Little Empire, and while it does have a few technical issues, I been mostly enjoying it. I have played over the last five days now with probably around 15-20 hours played. It’s hard being a King, I am only level 8 at the moment. This is my review of Little Empire version 1.5.1 on Android.
Updates to the excellent co-op game Magicka have been released. The updates will be applied automatically if you have Magicka installed on your Steam client.
Patch notes:
Added a new Magick; Confuse to the Original Campaign and the Basic Magicks pack.
Terraria, the excellent Minecraft style adventure platformer, is to get a retail release. For £20 you can get the “Exclusive Collectors Edition” soon in a shop near you. The digital version costs around £5.99 with it at least getting lower costing with various regular sales, which is very good value seeing as all updates are free.
Merge Games, who have previously provided publishing for a lot of casual titles. Are now going to publish Terraria for sale in brick and mortar stores, people still remember those don’t they? They do still exist.

The first official Dear Esther trailer has appeared on the Dear Esther site, celebrating its four IGF award nominations, first review (8/10 from Edge Magazine)and its upcoming release on Steam on 14th February (valentines day).
The trailer and screenshots offers a glimpse of the lovely island that you explore in the game. It looks as though it’s going to be one the most beautiful thing ever made with the Source Engine. The Source Engine is pretty old now so it’s quite an achievement for the developers who originally made the game in 2008 as a mod for Half-Life 2, to make it look so good.
