The American Revolution, a galaxy far, far away, Toontown — the beauty of video games is that they can take you anywhere. Unlike books and cinema, though, you can actually interact with your surroundings.

Video Blips:

• The Orcs Must Die! series returns with its second installment. I love these small, quirky games. Sometime you don't need a triple-A title to get you excited, just a fun idea.

Continue after the break to get excited for WeSing Superstar Quiz, and if that doesn't get you pumped up, maybe Deadly 30's atmosphere or Star Thunder's (obvious?) homage will.

 

•  WeSing Superstar Quiz is coming to the App Store! Now you can answer over 1,000 questions about music on your commute from work before playing WeSing Pop! at home with all your cool, casual friends. What a simple life.

• Deadly 30 takes itself very seriously, and I think I like that. Maybe I'm just missing out, but I simply haven't seen many sidescrolling games lately that try to pull you in to their world with such atmosphere.

• Star Thunder shares some wonderful views of its world using actual gameplay footage. You know, anybody could have lied to me about this being an Independence Day revival and I would've believed it. Please make that a reality. I want to play as Jeff Goldblum.
