If you love Bloons and Adventure Time, well you're just going to have a field day with this. It was announced today that Cartoon Network and Ninja Kiwi have partnered up to bring Bloons Adventure Time TD to mobile later this month.

This is a crossover experience you won't want to miss as those pesky Bloons invade the Land of Ooo. The monkeys need to team up with Finn, Jake, Marceline, Princess Bubblegum, and more to save the kingdom. 

Featuring the real voice cast of Adventure Time, there are over 15 adventures and 50 maps to get through with more than 200 weapons and 30 Bloon-shredding powers at your disposal. This tower defence game also offers up 50 allies, a few new monkey heroes, an original story, and more. 

Have you ever wondered how the lone hero in all those films manages to take down a whole bunch of assailants without getting fatally wounded? Me too, which is why A Way to Slay is such an interesting proposition.

It mixes together a puzzler and an action game, slathers the whole thing in thick red blood, and finishes it off with some of the most pleasing, and brutal, murdering animations you're going to have seen in a long time.

It's not without its problems, but when it's getting things right it offers up a unique, tactical, time-chasing experience that's full to the brim with swords and slaughter.

The weekend is almost upon us, but here at TableTap we've got our eyes firmly fixed on the future. To be precise, we've got our eyes firmly fixed on Tuesday, when we're taking to the Twitch airwaves once more to stream Pandemic.

Never heard of Pandemic? Well, it's a digital board game adaptation that sees you trying to stop the spread of some deadly viruses.

You can play on your own, you can play cooperatively with friends, but the end goal is the same - try not to let the population of the world perish.

PUBG might have established the genre on PC, but what are the five best mobile battle royale games? Well, obviously Fortnite is on that list. But here, in this sexy five-minute video by our James, are our recommendations.

The .io games that have become popular on mobile over the past couple of years are often missing one very important ingredient - charm. They might get the mechanics right, but there's nothing for the eyes, or the heart, to really latch on to.

Not so with Thunderdogs. It's a meatier prospect than some of the games that have inspired it, adding a couple of extra levels to the running-around-in-an-arena template of the .io genre.

For one thing you're flying rather than running, and collecting the bones that defeated dog-fighters drop when they explode. There's plenty to unlock and upgrade as well, which adds even more depth to things.

Chernobyl is a place of mystery after one of the worst nuclear disasters in history all but wiped it off the map. In Escape from Chernobyl you've got to navigate the power plant and its surrounding area as you continue on from Radiation City's adventure. 

Scavenge for weapons and gear, find out what happened to Lauren, and try to survive the zombies and mutations that reside within in this first-person horror game. 

While that sounds all gravy on paper, the truth is in playing and we couldn't wait for our App Army to get their hands on it. What'd they think, you say? Let's find out. 

Gamescom 2018 kicks off in Cologne, Germany next week.

Running from August 21 to August 25, this will be one of the biggest gaming shows of the year. Hundreds of hot new games will be exhibited ahead of their release.

So what can we expect to see from Gamescom 2018? You can bet your bottom dollar there'll be plenty to see on the Nintendo Switch front.

Look, yeah, we already covered No Longer Home passing its Kickstarter goal and revealing a stretch goal to be ported to Switch. You know that. I know that.

But what we didn't know until recently is that the team at Humble Grove has already got the first game in the series, Friary Road, running on Nintendo's console. There's a video below if you don't believe me.

This is great news, and if that doesn't make you think "gee whiz I guess now I know it's not just a pipe dream I should go ahead and back it" then honestly, I don't know what will.

The Big Indie Pitch is a competition for indie developers around the world to show off their games to a huge panel of industry experts in rapid-fire pitches. Got a game you want to show off? Find out more on the Big Indie Pitch website.



We may only be half way through, but 2018 has already seen some of the strongest Big Indie Pitches we’ve ever seen take place. Not only have we seen FINIFUGU && friends take the crown twice, but we’ve also seen the highly acclaimed anti-golf game What The Golf? take the title at the always competitive GDC pitch.

We're two weeks past Boomsday. Those who were expecting the explosion to wreck the old meta have been in for a surprise. Plenty of new cards are seeing play, but all-new archetypes are thin on the ground.

That's good news for established players and for the game as a whole. It's also good news for you, as it means you can keep on running our suggested builds with only a few tweaks.

Who knows: there may be some hot decks waiting in the wings to take off. But in the meantime here's the top picks to keep you climbing the ladder while we wait for the meta to settle.
