JioGames Cloud has added another batch of games from Blacknut’s catalogue. With Manual Samuel, RE:CALL, Cosmic Cop, and Knight’s Retreat now available to play in the cloud. Manual Samuel is easily the strangest game here, with separate controls for walking, blinking, and breathing.
Cosmic Cop brings old-school arcade shooting, RE:CALL uses altered memories to change the present, and Knight’s Retreat turns a chess knight’s movement into a series of puzzles. All four games are available in the cloud to JioGames Cloud subscribers on Smart TVs, PCs, and mobile devices.
Manual Samuel
Manual Samuel starts with a ridiculous deal. Sam dies, meets Death, and gets 24 hours to prove he can survive, but every basic body function is now under your control. You move his legs separately, blink before his eyes dry out, remember to breathe, and try to keep him upright during tasks that should be effortless.
The comedy comes from watching a normal morning collapse because one forgotten button press sends Sam face-first into another problem. Walking across a room or drinking a cup of coffee can turn into a small disaster, which is exactly the point.
RE:CALL
RE:CALL turns memory into the tool you use to solve a mystery. You revisit moments from the past and change what happened inside them, then return to a present that reflects those decisions. One altered detail can change a conversation, move a character, or reveal a route that wasn’t available before.
Progress comes from testing different versions of the same event and seeing how the present reacts. It is the most story-focused game in this group, with its puzzles tied directly to the people and events you are trying to understand.
Cosmic Cop
Cosmic Cop brings a 1991 Irem arcade shooter from R-Type history into this JioGames Cloud batch. You pilot the R-11B Peace Maker through five zones, using forward guns and a lock-on laser that loses energy as you hold it down. Moving toward the right side of the screen speeds up the scrolling, so you decide whether to clear space carefully or push toward each boss faster.
Lettered power-ups strengthen your guns or refill laser energy, and missile units add anti-air, anti-ground, or napalm attacks. It is easy to understand after a few minutes, but controlling the scrolling speed adds a decision that most side-scrolling shooters never put in your hands.
Knight’s Retreat
Knight’s Retreat takes one chess rule and turns it into the entire puzzle. Your knight can only move in the familiar L-shape, and your goal is to reach the marked square without trapping the piece or wasting moves. The boards are compact, but the movement rule forces you to plan several jumps ahead before touching the first square.
You don’t need to know chess openings or endgames. Understanding how the knight moves is enough to start working through the boards.
