2016 turned out to be rich for both good and bad games. It’s always hard to pick just one game of the year. Especially when December gave us: Steep, The Dwarves, Let it Die, Shadow tactics, The Last Guardian, Dead Rising 4 and a whole bunch of smaller games.

The idea is to create a space to play uncountacble number of such games. You can play on both PC or a tablet. And the process itself is as close to the reality, as it can be. As a vital bonus, you can also get comfortable on the sofa with food and drinks.
