Sine Mora

Challenging difficulty

A gorgeous side-scrolling shmup from Grasshopper and Digital Reality where time is your health and a tool you can slow down. It features huge bosses, a soundtrack by Akira Yamaoka, and a surprisingly dark, fragmented story about anthropomorphic animal pilots.

Alien Soldier

Challenging difficulty

A frantic Treasure run-and-gun with a gauntlet of boss fights, fast gunplay and a flexible weapon loadout. It is extremely demanding, rewarding pattern memorization and precise reflexes.

ZeroRanger

Challenging difficulty

You pilot a small ship through a vertical shoot-'em-up where precise dodging matters as much as firing. Each fight unlocks new weapons and abilities, while a mysterious story about the invaders slowly unfolds.

Einhänder

Sci-fi setting

A classic Square side-scrolling shooter where you pilot a nimble fighter and steal weapons from enemies to use as your own. Driving techno music, imposing bosses and demanding precision make it a PlayStation cult favourite.

Darius Gaiden

Challenging difficulty

A classic side-scrolling shoot'em up where you pilot the Silver Hawk against giant mechanical fish bosses, with branching stage routes. Upgradable weapons and the new black hole bomb drive intense arcade action.

Hard Corps: Uprising

Challenging difficulty

A punishing 2D run-and-gun in the Contra tradition with sleek anime-style visuals and tight controls. Choose pure Arcade mode or the Rising mode with purchasable upgrades, and tackle the steep challenge solo or with a friend in co-op.

Vanquish

Sci-fi setting

Platinum Games' blisteringly fast third-person shooter where rocket-boosted slides and slow-motion aiming turn cover shooting into a high-speed ballet against robot armies. Short, intense and packed with spectacle.

Rollerdrome

Challenging difficulty

A fast third-person action game where you skate through futuristic arenas, pull off tricks and shoot enemies mid-air. Fluid movement and precise timing mesh together in a stylish retro-future 70s look.
