LOST IN SPACE

The sublimely silly MEGABONK makes fighting the armies of darkness a riot

- By Abbie Stone

Fighting ghosts with bananas makes perfect sense in practice. Honest.

This game is ridiculous. It stars a knight called Sir Oofie and a shirtless hunk called Megachad. You microwave items to clone them, just like how real microwaves don't work. One character is described as 'the Megabonk Discord bullied me into adding this character' and another one is called Birdo, which I'm sure Nintendo's lovely lawyers would agree is all in good fun.

And it is good fun. It's a game about wandering around auto-attacking as many monsters as possible. You pick a hero and then spawn in a procedurally-generated map full of chests, totems, shrines, and a crucial boss gate that you need to track down. You've got ten minutes to find that gate and spawn the boss before waves of angry ghosts come to finish you off.

Taken seconds before failing again, natch.
