The papery prop
Grapelab G.flow Stone
Your paper planes might be the envy of the office, but it takes superior skills to fold a laptop stand from A4. Observe this origami masterpiece. Magically waterproof and just 90g, it concertinas flat at home time. The secret? Recycled plastic and waste limestone powder from the mining industry.

The stick-on
Moft Laptop
You never know when you'll need a little lift. So this slimline stand is always on hand: it sticks to the base of your laptop, ready to pop up at a moment's notice. Holes help with heat dissipation, and it can hold 5kg at two heights: 5cm (good to rest your wrists) or a more substantial 8cm.

The flat-pack frame Rain
Design mBar Pro+
In our robot-ruled future, laptops will probably follow us around on built-in legs. Until then, this barely-there bracket is the next best thing. It boosts your computer by 14cm; its aluminium construction means the limbs are slim but sturdy, plus the whole thing folds down flat.

It's really not what you expect from a major publisher these days, but Capcom's curious blend of action, real-time strategy and tower defence is one of the most original games you'll play all year.From its colourful costumes to a pastoral message of healing nature, Kunitsu-Gami is proudly Japanese in its inspirations. Your masked warrior is on a mission to help a divine maiden purge a mountain of an evil 'defilement'... but this is no Link/Zelda dynamic: you'll also rely on villagers to help you beat back monsters.
