It may not look it at first, but BoxPop is a very interesting puzzle game. It's also free.
BoxPop is based on "knight's tour", which is a sequence of moves in chess that sees the knight piece visit every square on the board only once.
As such, each level has you moving across an irregular grid in an L-shape, trying to land on each square.
If you don't perform the sequence of moves in the ...
Rovio has announced that Angry Birds Stella will be released on September 4th.
It'll be the tenth game in the series and features a bunch of new characters for you to get familiar with.
In terms of how it plays, Stella doesn't really divert from the typical Angry Birds formula at all. You're still be flinging cute little birds at structures to beat up those bad piggies.
It does, at le...
SNK Playmore is celebrating the 20th anniversary of fighting game series The King of Fighters by putting all of its iOS and Android games on sale.
The sale will run from August 22nd until August 26th. All of the games are available to purchase for 69p / 99c across those dates.
If you're wondering, The King of Fighters will be officially 20 years old on August 25th.
Here's a list of th...
Foodie Yama is the latest in a long line of twitch titles that challenge you to somehow outwit your thumbs.
As ever, the simplicity of the piece will make you feel stupid when you fail. All you can do is move left and move right, attempting to avoid a nasty case of death.
Because Foodie Yama's App Store description omits any kind of background story, you'll need to make something up.
Ther...
It's been a long, rough ride for Clementine since The Walking Dead: Season 2 debuted last December.
Now, this chapter of her journey will come to an end next week.
The fifth and final episode of Season 2, No Going Back, will be available to North American PS Vita players on August 26th, European PS Vita players on August 27th, and iOS users on August 28th.
No word on the Android release d...
Framed by the franchise's fictional Abstergo Entertainment and its new, mobile Animus, Assassin's Creed Memories lets you take control of history's best assassins - on the go!
You can download it now from the App Store for free.
Assassin's Creed Memories spans several time periods, a mix of familiar eras and some all-new ones, including imperial Mongolia and feudal Japan.
The game itself ...
Swing Copters tries to recapture what made Flappy Bird so compulsive, but fails to do so by a pretty wide margin. That's disappointing considering the game has been made by Flappy Bird's creator - Dong Nguyen.
Both games are hard, both are cute, both have short play times. Both ask you to move through tight spaces, and heck, both of them are played in portrait. But Flappy Bird soars triumphant ...
DeNA and developer Kung Fu Factory have released free to play physics-based multiplayer action game Pirate Bash onto iOS and Android today.
The easiest way to describe it is to compare it to Angry Birds, except you take it in turns with the pigs (pirates in this case) to fire at each other.
You build up a pirate crew and then take on other crews in physics-based battles across a high seas ad...
Almost Human has now officially announced that its first-person PC dungeon crawler Legend of Grimrock will be coming to iOS.
We first heard of Almost Human's intentions to create an iOS port of Legend of Grimrock from a tweet back in 2012. We hadn't heard anything since and presumed that was due to the studio working on a sequel for PC.
It turns out we were right. Almost Human said in the an...
YesGnome has updated its sci-fi RPG Star Trek Trexels with new Star Trek: The Next Generation content. It's also lost the asking price and is free to download right now.
Yep, that's right, Captain Jean-Luc Picard and his crew are now waiting for you in the Starship Enterprise.
You can embark on new missions, meet new guest stars, and customise the starship to your liking.
There's plen...
Square Enix has put the Silver Award-winning Hitman GO on a weekend sale for iOS and Android starting today.
If you haven't already, you can purchase the game for £1.49 / $1.99 rather than the usual price of £2.99 / $4.99.
Hitman GO is a strategic stealth game starting the notorious assassin Agent 47.
Unlike other Hitman games, GO takes place on across diorama style levels and is turn-bas...
If you're on the lookout for a space-based role-playing title, you may want to check out Galaxy Legend from King's Empire developer Tap4Fun.
Galaxy Legend takes place in the year 2841 as humanity begins to expand to the furthest stars in the universe.
Unfortunately for you, the commander of a galactic outpost vying for power, the universe isn't a safe place, and you'll constantly be forced t...
I had a tinker with Star Wars: Commander a little while ago - back when the game soft-launched in Australia, in fact.
It wears its Clash of Clans inspirations on its sleeves, and indeed it's tempting to write the game off immediately as just another clone.
But this is a Star Wars game, seemingly with a significant budget behind it, so there's got to be more to Commander than meets the eye, r...
Singapore-based solo game developer Karta Sutanto of Unplug has released 44 onto iOS.
The name 44 references the 44 keys you have to collect around the game's 2D maze. You tilt to move and tap to jump in order to dodge spikes, moving hazards, and some harder surprises.
That doesn't sound too hard until you find out you only get one life.
Yep, just like Phases: Infinity Zero, 44 resets you...
I haven't even got past the first phase in Phases: Infinite Zero. I don't expect to any time soon, either.
This new hardcore platformer is about as tough as they come.
All it involves doing is touching the screen to move a bouncing ball of light to the right. You let go to make it stop. If you touch any darkness you die instantly.
So the hard part is moving forward at the right time, jum...
There's a crow swooping towards my carefully collected pile of top hats. I am one hat away from having the most hats anyone can possibly have at once.
If I leap just right I'll dodge the bird and grab the headwear. If I get it wrong, shame and calumny will surely follow.
Max Gentlemen is all about hats. Big hats, small hats, hats perched atop the muscular brows of men who know that please an...
DotEmu is a publisher that's been working to bring retro arcade classics from the '80s and '90s to modern day mobile gaming for a while now.
So it's quite exciting for us, and fans of these older games, that DotEmu is having a Summer Sale on iOS right now.
The seven games in this sale have all been marked down to a tempting price of 69p / 99c. If there's one or there that you've ...
RPG Soul Histrica is the latest old-school turn-based RPG for iOS from Japanese mobile game publisher Kemco.
The story this time around follows a guy called York who is told by a masked man where to find a girl called Fiora.
He doesn't know her and she has lost a lot of her memory. But, strangely, she happens to look exactly like York's ex-girlfriend.
It's the spark that kicks off an adve...
The Coding Monkeys has updated its Silver Award-winning puzzler Rules! with iPad support.
Released earlier this month, Rules! had us frantically trying to meet the demands of a growing number of rules within a set time limit.
We called it a "delightfully constructed memory test that grows in complexity and appeal the deeper in you go" in our review.
Unfortunately, only iPhone and iPo...
Bandai Namco has released fast-paced arcade game Pac-Man Friends for iOS and Android today.
It has you using tilt or touch controls to guide Pac-Man and at least one of his new friends around tricky mazes to reach the exit.
To open the exit up, you need to collect all of the pellets in the level. That can be a problem when the iconic ghosts are patrolling or there are they are behind locked ...
