Browser Based Games

Backseat Gamers
I’ve been aware of this annoyance for years, but I thought it was just concentrated to my household when I was young, where mum would walk by me sat on the floor playing Tomb Raider and ask why I was taking the long way round when there obviously an easier way out (she wasn’t aware … Continue reading Backseat Gamers

I’ve Seen Everything
If you know the channel I suppose you could say with my enormous propensity to overshare that you have in fact probably heard everything by now (you haven't, there is always more) but have you SEEN everything?No?We haven't either so when Keymailer popped up with this offering, of course we had to get it. You … Continue reading I’ve Seen Everything
Nelson and the Magic Cauldron
This is not a game I would have usually requested but I was quite happy to see the little 'pre-approved' labelled on it when scrolling through keymailer, so I decided to have a look.

Make your Kingdom
I still hold out hope that I can find a good indie settlement builder game om Keymailer, despite my utter dislike of both Noble fates and Medieval Trader Simulator. When I saw Make your kingdom I was once again renewed with my spark of hope and decided to request it and give it a go.You … Continue reading Make your Kingdom
Startup Panic
This reminded of Game Dev Tycoon back from 2013, so when I saw this on Keymailer, I had to request.You can see the first play here.

Crystal Clash
Two words - tower defence. At least that's the lie I was sold when I found this game on Keymailer. You can see my first play here. I'll be honest, it lasted longer than it should have done. According to the game blurb it boasts: Completely free-to-playFucking good job to be honest.Short, intense 2v2 and … Continue reading Crystal Clash
Bash the Teacher! – Classroom Clicker
As a former teacher I was interested in the premise of the game and so when I saw it on Keymailer, I decided asking for it couldn't hurt. You can see the first and completed play through here, and my fucking god - it was a slog. I don't know what I thought this would … Continue reading Bash the Teacher! – Classroom Clicker
Electrician Simulator – First Shock
I guess I should explain why I chose this game off Keymailer. My dad (when he was alive) was an electrician, and I knew how to change fuses and rewire plugs before I had even started secondary school. I was the only girl in my electronics class (and eventually a sexist teacher forced me to … Continue reading Electrician Simulator – First Shock
Brain Bait
Since I have started reviewing indie games, I have developed a soft spot for these little casual action puzzle type games, so when I saw this on Keymailer, I had to give it a go.The release day was scheduled for Jan 11th 2022, but at midnight it wasn't ready to download, and at Midday it … Continue reading Brain Bait
Cloud Escape
I was initially drawn to this on keymailer as we have had a few games recently in house Shiney that have claimed to have great jumping mechanics and have truly and spectacularly failed. I needed a game to do what it said in terms of jumping, and I think you can see from our first … Continue reading Cloud Escape
Trash Sailors
I saw this game on keymailer, and was instantly drawn to it for the premise and the graphics. I know I give people who play Seas of Thieves a hard time but this looked way more fun.

Psychoduck
This is the first game that I saw on keymailer that wasn't available, so I tweeted the developer Nibb Games and asked for a copy.

Diamond Hands To The Moon
Firstly, I would like to start off with an apology to Egg King, Diamond Hands to the Moon is without a doubt the worst game house Shiney has ever played, and has therefore stolen the crown of worst game of 2021. If you would like to see our first (and last) attempt at this game, … Continue reading Diamond Hands To The Moon
Wytchwood
This game lured me in on Keymailer thanks to its front page splash and beautiful graphics. You can see me play it for the first time here.

Red Cap Zombie Hunter
This game initially got me in as it had the whole cute old school shooter thing going on with Plants v Zombies (original game) vibes.

Impious Pumpkins
I saw pumpkins, and I thought WeeJohn - that was it, that was my entire motivation for requesting this game. But given my love for Team Scottish and Johns obsession with pumpkins, what more of an excuse did I need?
