Kona is a chilling adventure set in a snowbound Canadian village.

Metro 2033 Redux needs no introduction, the story-driven FPS dystopian game will serve for a great game to stress-test the capabilities of your 4G connection as the main focus of the player will be to think and react quickly in order to survive.
