This morning Neil_Long_ explores Netflix's games catalogue
Few seem to have noticed, but Netflix is quietly building a service that's home to the best in mobile games - and one that hints at something bigger on the horizon.
You, a purveyor of fine taste and someone who was into Four Tet before he got big recently, will already be aware of games like Into the Breach, Kentucky Route Zero, Immortality, TMNT: Shredder's Revenge and Oxenfree. All of those games are right there on Netflix now, with some caveats.
Outside of these familiar indie bangers there's more surprising, Netflix-exclusive games to be had, too. You, the long-time fan of Charlie Kaufman's work, might dig what's on there, in fact. Tomb Raider Reloaded might have caught your eye recently, which plonks Lara Croft into what is effectively a new version of popular mobile shooter Archero. Once it gets going, it's a frenzied top down bullet-fest where Lara only shoots when you lift your finger from the screen, so the action seesaws between dodging bullets and finding space to return fire. It's good stuff.
Each one really shows off Frosty Pop's considerable design chops - the studio was spun out of a design agency, and it shows in the subtle style, detail and character in all four games.
There's more: elite-tier mobile game developer Super Evil Megacorp is also on board, and is part of what Netflix has described as a"big bet" for its gaming platform: an ambitious transmedia project in which a game, TV show and maybe more will co-exist within a new Netflix-owned universe.
