Claire: Extended Cut
Original Price: £13.99/$14.99 on PlayStation Store Platform(s): PS4 & PS Vita
Released back in 2016, chances are you might not have heard of Claire: Extended Cut, created by indie studio Hailstorm Games. Thanks to PS Plus, you’ll get a chance to finally see what all the fuss is about. While visiting her sick mother, Claire takes a wrong turn and stumbles into a dark passage of echoing doors and abandoned rooms. Lost, Claire encounters an over-protective dog and few denizens who seem to be uninterested in Claire’s struggle. Did they block the doors and windows to keep something out, or is a malevolent force stopping Claire from leaving? Find out now, free of charge.
Bombing Busters
Original Price: £5.79/$9.99 on PlayStation Store Platform(s): PS4 & PS Vita
If you were a fan of the classic Bomberman series, Bombing Busters should be on your download list. Improving on the mechanics of the classic game, Bombing Busters offer 30 mazes across 5 different worlds, and pits you against not only other bombers but by a range of critters and powerful bosses, all of which you have to blow up before moving on. It’s not just you vs the game though; you can play a fully customisable battle mode with 4 offline players or 8 online players (on PS4, anyway). The PS Vita variant matches the PS4 game in almost every way, but you can’t create custom matches (though you can join them).
