Axiom Verge (Thomas Happ Games) - €17.99 (€16.19 until September 8)
This is the action-adventure you’ve been waiting for. After a lab accident, a scientist awakens in a mysterious, alien world. Is this a distant planet? The far future? Or a complex virtual-reality computer simulation? Plumb the recesses of a large, labyrinthine world in order to learn its secrets and uncover your role within it. Discover tons of weapons, items, and abilities, each with their own unique behaviours and usage. You’ll need your wits to find them all. Combat bizarre biomechanoid constructs, the deadly fallout of an ancient war, and the demons of your own psyche. And finally, break the game itself by using glitches to corrupt foes and solve puzzles in the environment. Life. Afterlife. Real. Virtual. Dream. Nightmare. It's a thin line. It's Axiom Verge.

However, there are some people who aren't happy with this situation. The revolutionaries, led by Seymour Hillman, believe football weakens the minds of children in the future. They think that the cause of this is the captain of Raimon Jr. High, so they formed the strongest team, consisting of specially trained soldiers, and called it Team Ogre. They send Team Ogre to the Football Frontier 80 years in the past to stop Raimon Jr. High becoming champions and to change history.
