Soul Sacrifice Delta
Soul Sacrifice Delta was introduced in May 2014, and has been a popular choice with PlayStation Vita players ever since. A superior version of the original Soul Sacrifice, this game allows you to channel your inner sorcerer to defeat the baddies and progress through a multitude of levels. Watch out for a particularly creepy version of Snow White who will give you fairy tale chills right down your spine!
Disney Afternoon Collection
Do you consider yourself a bona fide Disney fan? The all-new Afternoon Collection will be right up your street!

If that wasn’t enough, Disney’s incredible array of characters have often escaped their magical fantasy world to only appear in other action-packed titles. Snow White herself has appeared in Soul Sacrifice Delta back in 2013, while Hansel and Gretel have appeared in their very own Hansel and Gretel slot. Jet forward to 2017 though and you can now play DuckTales, Chip ‘n Dale and much more via Microsoft Windows, Playstation 4 and Xbox One.
