YOUNG HOLMES

Chapter One puts you in the shoes of 21-year-old Sherlock Holmes, and he’s a brooding, arrogant so-and-so who’s as happy getting into fights as he is solving crimes.

The sequel to Bomber Crew has its sights set on the final frontier. Brighton-based dev Runner Duck has evolved its plate-spinning strategy game, this time challenging you with keeping your spaceship flying while repelling aliens.

You control the individual crew members, making sure they carry out the tasks necessary to keep your spaceship going. You don’t spend all your time staring at the inside of your ship, however: you must actually pilot it through space as you explore and scan to complete missions, in addition to dealing with invaders.

Space offers even more unpredictable dangers than the sky. As well as alien boarding parties you need to make sure you’ve got enough oxygen for your crew to keep breathing, that fires are promptly dealt with, and all systems remain online.

Space Crew launches on PS4, so get ready to suit up soon.
