Why us

Battery and size

How much space it takes and how quickly it drains a phone — both are in the review.

Offline first

Every review says plainly whether the game works on a plane or a train without signal.

We finish what we start

A review only goes up after at least a week with the game, not after ten minutes of the tutorial.

Ads and purchases, measured

We count how often ads interrupt play and what the paid version actually removes.

Rebuild broken radio circuits. Hard from the start and honest about it.

Paper Routes

★★★★☆ 4.0

Paper Routes gives you a town and a pencil: draw the lines, watch the vans, fix the jams. It looks like a children’s book and plays like a logistics puzzle.

Questions & answers

Do you review paid games?

Yes, and we prefer them. A game you pay for once usually treats your attention better than a free one.

Do you accept payment for reviews?

No. We buy every game and every in-app purchase we write about, and we do not run sponsored posts.

How do you choose what to review?

Readers suggest most of them by email. The rest come from what we see people playing around us.

Why are there no scores out of ten?

A number without an explanation tells you nothing. We give a short verdict instead, and say who the game is for.
