This time we have four games made by three familiar developers. Despite how it might look, Günter isn't the most productive Clicker in Click history - they are just uploading games from their back catalogue. I wonder if more is to come? I guess we'll just have to wait and see!
Viking by Günter
This 2023 game is a platformer with enemies and hazards but made more arcadey through timer and local high score table. In my view the controls and collision detection feel a bit clunky, but it's got some charm.
 
Comments from the Author: "Viking is a jump and run game. Viking Günni has to fight his way through different worlds. Collect coins and defeat various creatures. And all against the clock. Can you complete all the levels? Have fun."
Don't say: Wait, why does that Viking have a historically inaccurate horned helmet?
Do say: I'll jump into this game to try to get a high score and earn myself a place in Valhalla!

Bomb zombie village! by LordHannu
Halloween has come early in this fun accessible pixelly arcade game with online hi-scores (Powered by Kliktopia™). You can't jump over the enemies in this game, but you have to kill them to avoid them killing you. No guns, so what do you use? Bombs, of course! Try not to get exploded too much by your own bomb.
 
Comments from the Author: "Was experimenting with "would it collide at" manage to make pixels fall and behave like sand. Used effect color replacer for same object as debris. made it pixel because seemed cool then I don't need to do extremely detailed debris... Place a bomb in front of the building or in front of the zombie when it explodes the mass will fly away from the player because it hurts the player getting hit by junk. Beginners trap don't bomb yourself at the beginning of the game will cost you greatly later."
Don't say: Why won't anyone think of the poor defenseless zombies?
Do say: Yay, the explosion effect I know and love from Lemmings has returned... in zombie form! I'm gonna get a high score and show those zombies what's what. GET TO THE CHOPPA!

Monster Trap by Sketchy
That's right, the third hi-score based game in a row. This game is an action puzzler, which is one of my favourite genres but also the one that can frustrate me the most. The game requires a bit of playing to figure out a strategy of how to trap the enemies and their sneaky diagonal pathfinding without getting eaten in the process. There's definitely a few tactics I picked up after playing it a few times to make things easier.
Comments from the Author: "Inspired by the classic "Rodent's Revenge", in this action-puzzler, you play as a pink blob thing, trying to push crates to trap the monsters, before they can catch you."
Don't say: I got a score of 0 twice in a row. I give up!
Do Say: I keep getting better. Patience is a virtue and practice makes perfect!

CreepyCrypt by Günter
Another Halloweeny game. Another hi-score game. Another game by Günter? All these coincidences are pretty creepy, which is of course appropriate for CreepyTower. Less clunky than Viking.
 
Comments from the Author: "CreepyCrypt is a top-down action game. Muster up all your courage and descend into the crypt. Collect keys and use them to open secret doors. Beware of the many creatures and eliminate them. Collect red ore to increase your score. Have fun with it and don't get caught."
Don't say: I got stuck at the end of Level 1 - the game must be unbeatable! (No, you just have to do things in the right order...)
Do say: I'm not throwin' away my shot... (because ammo is limited)
