About us

01What we do

We review a short, hand-picked list of short games you can finish in an evening or a weekend and explain them for UK players: what you actually do, who each game suits, how long a sensible session lasts, where you can stop without losing progress, and what it costs after you buy it.

Every game on this site can be finished in eight hours or less. We tell you exactly how long, how many sittings it suits and where the best places to save and stop are.

02Why the name

A save point is the moment a game lets you rest: everything is kept, and you can walk away happy. A foxglove is a tall, quiet flower that grows in British gardens and woods. Together they describe what we want for your evenings: something beautiful, and a clear place to stop.

03What we are not

We are not a shop, a betting site, a casino, a sweepstakes or a prize draw. You cannot play, deposit, wager or win anything here. We have no business link with gambling or casino-style operators and we do not accept their advertising.

We are not an amusement arcade either. Every game on this site is an ordinary video game you buy once from an official store.

04How we stay independent

Nobody pays for a review, a score or a place on a list. We do not use affiliate links, so we earn nothing when you click through to a store. If a publisher ever sends us a free copy, we say so in the review.

The site is run on a small budget by its operator, named below. Running costs are covered by the operator, not by the games we write about.

05Who writes the reviews

The Foxglove Save Point desk is a small group of long-time players and editors. Each review is played on at least one of the listed platforms, checked by a second person and dated. When a game changes in a way that matters, we update the review and the date.
