If you always wanted to go back to the Stone Age for whatever reason then now would be a good time to purse that dream.
Why? Campfire Creations has put its Gold Award-winning digital boardgame on sale on iOS.
Right now you can grab it for £1.99 / $2.99 instead of the full price of £4.99 / $6.99.
It's a deep game of strategy that places you as the chief of a tribe. You need to collect resources, trade at the river, and build your village to come out on top.
You can play with three AI opponents, or the same number of people on just one tablet with the pass-n-play multiplayer.
It also supports asynchronous multiplayer over Game Center if you're looking for human competition but don't have anyone to challenge at hand.
TinyBuild's reverse platformer Spoiler Alert will be coming to iOS on December 16th. It'll also be available on Android at the start of 2015.
It's a game that starts at the end and then literally plays backwards. The challenge is to un-win the game, essentially.
The one-touch controls mean that you only need to tap the screen to instruct the red banana-shaped character when to jump.
So, it's a game that tests your proficiency in timing, above all. That said, there are boss fights and upgrades to tackle and get to grips with along the way.
Spoiler Alert will cost 69p / 99c when it arrives on the App Store next Tuesday.
Disclosure: The PR representative for TinyBuild is former Pocket Gamer writer Mike Rose.
Mere weeks after release, Trivia Crack has made it to the number one spot on the US iTunes Store, beating the likes of Candy Crush Soda Saga, Instagram, and Facebook. That's no easy feat.
Neither, though, is featuring in the iTunes 'Best of 2014' ranking on the App Store, which it also did. Google also took a shine to it, placing it at a whopping third in its 'Top 100 Best Games of 2014' chart.
Just in case you've been living in an abandoned airport hangar, Trivia Crack pits you against your friends in a battle of wits to determine who knows more useless information in each of the six categories of science, entertainment, art, geography, sports, and history. Win a category and you unlock the character associated with it - gather all six and you're officially the finest mind amongst your friends.
RedLynx and Ubisoft have updated the tricky Bronze Award-winning motorbike racer with PvP multiplayer.
You may recall that we at PG Connects back in June.
In these head-to-head showdowns, you'll be riding against another opponent's ghost while trying to will your tyres over the game's ridged and twisted tracks.
If you're good at it, and manage to beat these ghosts, you'll climb up the season rankings toward becoming a "Legend of the Frontier."
But that's not all. Beating other riders unlocks 16 new tracks in a swanky cave environment. Now that's got to be worth taking on the challenge, right?
Ever tried to dodge raindrops? It's a barmy idea, but one that entered my head as a child. It didn't go very well, of course, and the same can be said of my efforts in Don't Get Wet.
It's a free iOS and Android game that has you dodging large drops of rainwater with your taps. Easier said than done.
It's made extra tricky as you need to control two characters at once.
They're both adorabl...
So you want a controller for your iPhone or iPad.
That makes sense. Because while a lot of the best games on iOS are designed which the touchscreen in mind (think Monument Valley, Threes!, and 80 Days), there are some great apps that are crying out for a controller.
It's almost impossible to play something like BioShock, Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, or Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath by pawing ...
Classic RPG Baldur's Gate II: Enhanced Edition is coming out for Android and iPhone on December 16th.
It was released for iPad about a year ago now. So this news is for those who play on smaller iOS screens, or on Android only, really.
There's no pricing details for these versions as of yet. However, given that the iPad version costs £10.49 / $14.99 you can probably expect it to be the s...
Where do I even begin with Dungeon of Genesis?
Do you like Wizardry? Well if you do, then go play Wizardry. Don't be tempted by this game's attempts at replicating the Wizardry experience.
I say this not as a series purist, but as someone who simply can't stand broken, bad games.
From humble beginnings
Dungeon of Genesis begins with you creating a team of adventurers by choosing names,...
Off the back of SimplePhysics and SimpleRockets, Jundroo has now released SimplePlanes on iOS and Android.
The concept is simple enough. You construct planes by snapping wings, cockpits, and engines together. There are WW2 warbirds, civilian planes, and next-generation fighters.
But you can build much more due to the flexibility of the system. You can download models that people have built o...
Stellar Smooch is a one-button game of spaceship kissing.
Each level has the two adorable cartoon spaceships orbiting the planets and stars on the screen.
You tap to launch them in the direction they're facing, which is made difficult at times due to the speed that they're spinning at.
Usually you have to weave them through meteorites, or transfer them across moving planets to have them ...
One of the great trends in gaming in recent years has been the opening up of development.
Where before you needed to learn reams of specialist code to build something even vaguely playable, nowadays there are platforms that let anyone create something from scratch.
ROBLOX is one such platform. It's a free program for PC or Mac that lets you build and distribute your own games. Not just to ho...
Ruben is sleepy is an odd high-score chasing arcade game. It's out now on iOS, just a week or so after its Android counterpart arrived.
You control what is probably best described as a couch potato. This crown-wearing blob is the titular Ruben. And yes, it's a sleepy little thing.
When it enters the land of nod in front of late night television, it dreams of falling endlessly through a floa...
Today, dystopian documents thriller and multi award-winning indie game Papers, Please hit the iPad.
It's a grim, reflective game about being a border agent in some fictional Eastern bloc nation. You've got to check everyone's papers are in order, while dealing with a spiralling mountain of red tape and your family's dwindling wellbeing.
Unfortunately, it didn't make it to the App Store unsca...
Tales from the Borderlands doesn't have the bite of some of Telltale's recent fare. It zips along at a much faster pace, cracking wise as and it does.
And since it's set in the crazed universe of Gearbox's FPS RPG, that makes a lot of sense. There's plenty of gore and sarcasm here, and more than one line that'll raise a giggle.
But there's a distinct lack of weight to proceedings - your choi...
In the run up to Christmas, Pocket Gamer has teamed up with the developers behind some of this year's best games to give you ten award-winning iOS games for free. Come back every day for the next two weeks to get your games.
The fifth entry into our Christmas calendar is Sky Goblin's jazzy, Caribbean-flavored point-and-clicker The Journey Down: Chapter One. You can grab it right now from the Ap...
Color Ranger has a pretty compelling name. It almost sounds like it belongs to a Power Ranger - you know, that lone wolf sixth Ranger that tends to hang by the sidelines and do things on their own terms.
In actuality, Color Ranger has nothing to do with spandex suits, martial arts, or vehicles that combine to become bigger, sillier vehicles. However, it's a pretty cool mix of pinball, pool, and...
The PlayStation era was the heyday of extreme sports games. Titles like Tony Hawk's Pro Skater and Cool Boarders set a template that's remained largely unchanged for more than a decade.
And it's a template that Snowboard Party adheres to slavishly. The buttons might be onscreen, but you're still mashing together combinations to perform extravagant flips, spins, and grabs.
There's the obligat...
iOS is absolutely crammed with free-to-play RTSs such as Clash of Clans, Boom Beach, and Game of War – Fire Age. So just how do you stand out in a crowd of fine competitors such as these?
That's an issue that independent mobile developers Dawn Patrol Games are trying to solve with Nitropia: War Commanders.
We spoke to Studio Head, Prithvi Virasinghe about the new title and how he believes th...
Over the past few years, Lucky Frame has proven to be one of our favourite studios making games for iOS.
Those include Bad Hotel, Wave Trip, Gentlemen!, and The Nightmare Cooperative, which is currently free for our Advent Calendar (go get it!).
Now, unfortunately, the Edinburgh-based studio has disbanded and will be making no more games in the foreseeable future.
This is due to a number ...
Updated on December 11th, at 15:10: We've updated the list once again, this time adding Tomb Raider II, Skylanders Trap Team, Valiant Hearts: The Great War, Wayward Souls, Turbo Dismount, Warhammer 40,000: Carnage, Worms 3, Dead Trigger, BioShock, and Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath.
