Games Review: Fat Princess

PlayStation 3, Sony, £11.99

The aim of this cartoonish, tactical PSN download is to rescue a rather rotund royal from an opposing team and heave her to your base. It’s like capture the flag except with a plump princess instead of a scrap of fabric – and you need to keep her safe for 30- second bursts. But what sounds simple on paper is in fact a game that requires large helpings of skill and patience, and the ability to manage an army of warriors with a different range of abilities. It’s genuinely challenging if a bit on the pricey side.
