GameFix began life in 1994, published by Game Publications Group. It published small games and provided universal coverage of the gaming industry. After issue #10, it was bought out by One Small Step who assumed all of GPG's liabilities. The magazine was renamed, and went to an all-colour format, though the games shipped with unmounted counters.

Modern era tactical wargamers found a couple of titles of interest in the pages of this magazine; Foxhole, billed as a "grand-tactical" Second World War game of platoon-level infantry combat, and Edson's Ridge, set on Guadalcanal. Both were later also sold as bagged standalone games.
