Prison sentence is a multiplayer prison break game where you and an ally must escape a randomly generated prison. The location of the prison and the architecture are random and the prison is fulled with AI guards and other prisoners. There is a third player who plays as the warden, they have complete control over where the guards patrol and they must stop the players from escaping, but because there are many other AI prisoners the warden wont know who is a player trying to escape and who a guard is. The game ends when the prisoners leave the confines of the prison and the warden wins when he finds the players trying to escape. The AI prisoners can be reasoned with and be manipulated to giving you items to help you escape. The only thing is that if you try talking to them and say the wrong thing then they may be the one killing you instead so its kind of a double edged blade.

Vietnam is a first person story driven shooter game. You take place as a recruit who had been drafted to fight in Vietnam against his will and had to live out the tortures of the jungle. The game isn't a typical run around and shoot everything you see type of game. It puts you in really dark positions that actual people from the Vietnam war had to experience and focuses heavily on the story of the game rather than the shoot mechanic. Vietnam will be a strictly r18 game with a heavy warning that the game will be graphic due to it involving torture, murder etc. The overall goal of the game is for you to finish your duty and get out alive without going rogue and abandoning your squad. Once you leave Vietnam that will be the end of the game and there won't be any potential to replay unless you do it on a higher difficulty.

Super power is a top down strategy game where you control a unit of characters who each have their own individual super power. The game works on a turn based system where you can choose to make your player move across the map or try to attack a target they have a visual on. Each mission will have an end goal of what the group has to do, whether it be trying to capture a building, securing a hostage or just holding your position from enemies. As you progress through the levels you pick up more super powered characters who have different abilities, the only thing is that they will have no experience so you might not want to use them but if they are good enough you can swap out your weakest link. This fact ads another element of strategy to the game that is not actually involved with the combat what so ever. The end goal of the entire game will be your team fighting off an invasion or trying to make the world accept the humans with super powers (undecided).

Fish tank is a multiplayer game with either first or third person where you swim in a customized fish tank. The game starts off as you and your friends being small fish inside a lonely tank and food starts to drop from the roof of the bowl. Your goal as a fish is to eat as much as you possibly can. The more food that you eat correlates to how big you get. Once you eat enough, you are then able to eat your friends as long as they are significantly smaller than you are. Once you eat your friends you then gain the points that they previously had and they get to restart from the beginning. If you get too big you can have the chance to get caught in plastic seaweed traps that are around the fish tank and once you're trapped the smaller fish can all tag against you to eat you as a group.

The aim of the game is to either ruin the food as a rat or to stop the rats from ruining your food as a chef. The game can be up to a 1:5 ratio between chefs and rats. The rats can use any method they want to ruin the food, whether it be them physically touching the food, pouring something thats not supposed to be in the dish and any other method. The game will play out on a time limit so that the rats can physically see how long they have until the games over. The chef will have to multitask quite a bit because he will not only be thinking of stopping the rats but also thinking about which ingredients need to go in next. The chef looses points if he doesn't make the dishes correctly.

Have you ever heard people bragging about how they've dropped their phones countless times and the screen has never once cracked. Mobile Gladiator is a game set in real life where people who think they have strong phones battle each other to see which phone is superior in toughness. You start as close to the ground as possible, both drop the phone at the same time onto the same surface and if no phone breaks or cracks then you up the scale slightly. If you get to the point where you cant drop it any further because of height restrictions then you must drop it of a low ledge or stand on something like a bench. The first person to break their phone looses. The game has no real reward for the victor except the rush of having your phone having the potential of breaking each time you drop it. If you lose, the loser owes nothing to the winner due to them having to pay a fee to fix their own phone.
