A novel mixture of adventure and arcade action. You could play it just to get a high score. But the best thing is to fly over the mysterious lands, discovering more each time you play. Read Review
Play itself is rather samey, but if you fancy the idea of taking on the guise of a mythological creature, battling against the odds on a mission of mercy, you could do worse than this. Read Review
This is the best game I have played for months... I can't really see myself leaving alone for weeks. Read Review
Thanatos is entirely original. The you-as-Dragon role reversal offers scope for lots of fun, torching things and so on. Fine stuff. Read Review

Refreshingly different and full of delightful little touches, like the ability to deposit rocks on people's heads, burn them and drop them from great heights. Good stuff. Gosh, yes. Read Review
