In Botanicula you follow five tree creatures as they attempt to save their tree from an infestation of evil parasites. Botanicula isn't a normal point and click adventure. While there is a story, the point of the game seems to be exploration and interaction.

It's a surprisingly big game, with lots to explore and quite a complex map. The tree is divided into screens, and on each screen you can interact with the flora and fauna in different ways, sometimes for fun and sometimes to solve puzzles. There are no long conversations to follow, just really pretty animations accompanied by a gorgeous soundtrack.

Botanicula manages to stay away from being simply an attractive ambient experiment with the consistently inventive animals, and the evil parasites, which reminded us a little of the much scarier Limbo. Botanicula has a casual feel to it, but you'll enjoy it even if you consider yourself a 'hardcore gamer'.

One of the most enjoyable and relaxing games you'll play this year, Botanicula is the kind of experience which really is suitable for all the family, without boring any of them!

Funny Photo Maker allows you to make amusing additions to your photos - or from one of two sexy ladies provided as an example. Simply click the + button and you'll be able add a number of image formats from your PC. You then need to select one of Funny Photo Maker's effects. These are divided into three categories - Frames, Face fun and Artistic.

In themselves, Funny Photo Maker's effects are pretty good. The frames are funny, there are a good selection of famous and amusing scenarios under Face fun, and the artistic effects - although basic - will keep you entertained. The problem, however, is that they are almost impossible to apply well.

Funny Photo Maker allows you to edit your images slightly so you can focus on the important parts of the photo, but it rarely maintains the edit when you add the effects. The same goes for when you don't edit the photo - there's no intelligent face ID here - it just plops the effect over your photo, changing the resolution however it sees fit. Although you can get lucky with a good match, most of the images are stretched and warped, and look terrible - even the ones included by the developer as an example!

If you want to have fun with your images, try Photo Frames & Effects, Pixlr-o-matic or Polarfox - they're all much better options.

Funny Photo Maker looks good in theory, but in practice, it is really badly finished and does nothing for your photos. Look elsewhere.

If you need some eye-catching text for your website, presentation or home-made movie, Xara 3D Maker could be exactly what you need. It's an app that's targeted at beginners, which means it has a very intuitive interface and is very easy to use. If you need even more encouragement, the Xara 3D Maker website is packed full of tutorials, guides and other forms of help.

One thing to bear in mind when using Xara 3D Maker is that many of the options available under the menu bar at the top, the menu down the right and the options on the left is that they all do the same thing - they are just different ways of accessing the options.

These options include a bunch of animation effects, patterns and styles, ready for you to use at any moment. You can easily customize the animation's color, bevel, shadow and design options – among other features – from the sidebar, and preview results in real time. Some of these Xara 3D Maker options can also be manually changed on the preview window, by simply dragging the animated text on your screen and moving the mouse.

Once your Xara 3D Maker animation is ready, you can export it to several formats, including animated GIF, bitmap- or vector- based Flash file (SWF), AVI movie, animated cursor (CUR) and Windows screensaver (SCR), ready to insert wherever needed. The one thing we couldn't help but notice about Xara 3D Maker, however, is that both the app and the designs it creates are beginning to look dated.

If you like the style, Xara 3D Maker is a great tool that lets you easily create text animations, even if you haven't used animation software before.
