There is no need to be alarmed. Although it may look all too familiar, the above screenshot is not of a pong clone. Not quite anyway. Bounce Crazy does involve balls and goals, like Pong, but unlike Pong, you grab and throw balls instead of batting them away.
You move your white-gloved hand around your side [...]

Carrum is described in the blurb as “the grandfather of pool”, unfortunately not the godfather of pool which would have enabled me to make a joke about it not being the crossover between The Colour Of Money and The Godfather that I was hoping for. Which is probably lucky as it’s a rubbish joke anyway.

A.I.R. Play is a futuristic sports game where you get to… actually, I’m not entirely sure what you get to do. You definitely get to watch the camera sit inside the battlements of a castle obscuring the action. You definitely get to wrestle with the controls in order to get the ball. You definitely get [...]

Petanque is a game where you throw a ball into a playing field, then try to land other balls as close as possible to it. Heathcliff Huxtable played it in exactly one episode of The Cosby Show. And that’s all I have to say about that.
Petank Party is a game wherein you play the game [...]

Literal and uninspired title aside, Easy Golf is a rather sweet looking golf game which harks back to a time when Leaderboard was the king of all Golf games.

sin(Surfing) is a retro-esque and stylish game where you have to “ride” an oscilloscope, performing stunts to gain points. It’s a 360 port of the TIGS Procedural Generation Competition entry of the same name and retains much of the style of the original game.
It may be a short lived game, but it looks gorgeous and [...]
