“The American Dream is a Satire about Gun Culture”- Polygon

This line best describes the game as it is indeed a satire about the gun culture. In the game, you would be using guns to cook, run errands, drive and various other, basic day to day activities. You will also be learning a lot about different types of gun and pistols.

This highly anticipated game is releasing in 2018 and the release date has not yet been confirmed.

This game is a first-person shooting game and you can play it in three modes. The first one being, Search and Destroy where the fight is against two teams and one team plants a bomb while the other one tries to defuse it.

6. Ark Park

This game has been built in order to give you a VR experience of a park that is filled with living dinosaurs. If you have ever had the fantasy of actually feeling how the Jurassic park must have felt then you have this game on your side. Although you are not going to get attacked by any one of them, instead it is more like a theme park.

You can interact with them and enjoy the beautiful graphics of the game. The game was going to be released in 2017, but eventually got postponed to 2018.

7. Bebylon Battle Royale

In Bebylon Battle Royle, humans have discovered an immortality pill which means there are no more deaths and no more aging. Since immortality has been achieved, humans are more competitive towards gaining fame, success and wealth.

This now results in constant battles between humans or we can say, babies, as that is the age when the pill is consumed by humans which has eventually stopped the aging process. This game is going to be pretty interesting and is soon to release early in 2018.

8. Classroom Aquatic

The game revolves around a foreign exchange student who joins the school of dolphins to spend an entire semester there. He gets a lot of unexpected tests which have to be answered and being new to school does not help his situation. In order to pass these tests, he tries to cheat and get all the answers from the other dolphins who are answering their papers.

The game doesn’t end there, the dolphins in the classroom are very smart! Once they find you are trying to copy answers from them, they might try to hide their answers or even complaint to the invigilator. The game was supposed to release in 2017 but is finally releasing this year.
