Frantics (A Playlink Game) (PlayStation 4)

Let's all go down the arcade! Actually, let's not, because it's raining, and we don't have enough 10 pence pieces. Also that guy who spends 10 hours a day on the Bejeweled machine is weird. Let's play Frantics instead! 

Yes, now you can enjoy manic multiplayer fun in the comfort of your own home - and you don't even need a load of extra controllers. Frantics is a PlayLink game, so the only thing each player requires to join in is a smartphone or tablet, and a Wi-Fi connection. 

There's a host of hilarious mini-games on offer - everything from action-packed all-out brawls to more thinky, turn-based efforts. Watch out for your pesky host, the Fox - he's there to encourage bribery, bluffing, backstabbing, and all sorts of other dreadful mischief. Maybe the Countryside Alliance has got a point. 

Key Messages

• Bye bye buttons – Frantics is played using your phone or tablet's touchscreen, so it's all about shaking, tilting and swiping your way to victory. Plus, keep an eye out for private intel and secret missions that will only show up on your screen. 

• Squash match – The characters in Frantics are made from a kind of virtual clay, which means it's extremely satisfying to flatten them with steam rollers, bash them with baseball bats, and chuck them off cliffs. SPLAT. 

• 15 frenetic mini-games – Sure, quick reflexes come in handy when playing Frantic's 15 mini-games. But thanks to the Fox's evil bonus challenges, it's also about manipulating and outmaneoeuvring your rivals. Then laughing at their humiliating defeat, of course.  

• Mashup mayhem – There are 12 animal characters to choose from, and you can customise them so they look even more ridiculous.
