Bone Marrow Game Cover
The reward for the gaming feels empty, and the design of the game seems lazy. It may only be £4.99 but there are a lot of great games available for slightly more, or even free. If you enjoy 2048, or Medieval aesthetics, maybe give it a try, but don’t say we didn’t warn you.

"Bone Marrow" is an arcade-style game that can be played as a single-player or local multi-player, supporting up to 2 players in both co-op and PvP modes. The game is a fresh take on the traditional "2048" puzzle, where players combine objects instead of numbers to create better weapons, shields, and potions, and defeat monsters to earn points. With turn-based missions and the goal to clear different places in the Middle Ages from evil creatures, Bone Marrow offers a unique and engaging gameplay experience.
