Evergarden By: Flippfly, LLC Flippfly, the makers of the heart-pumping reflex-based flyer, Race the Sun, are back with a new game where they're trying their hands at a more relaxed genre -- puzzles. Their latest endeavor, Evergarden, is an endless merging game that's mostly about the high score, but also about the journey there. Merging games aren't anything new to the App Store, but they usually come in the form of free…
Evergarden By: Flippfly, LLC Flippfly's Evergarden is a relaxing endless merging puzzler. What sets it apart from others like it is the gorgeous graphics and soundtrack, unique mechanics, and lack of in-app purchases. The game doesn't tell you much, though, so you're left to figuring things out on your own. If you would rather have some help, though, you can use this walkthrough guide. I'll be adding to it as I discover…
Stranger Cases By: Snapbreak Games Stranger Cases: A Mystery Escape is the latest adventure game from Snapbreak Games. Like their other releases, you can play the first few levels for free before deciding whether to purchase the rest.

Barbearian By: Kimmo Lahtinen (GIMBLLL) I've had GIMBLLL's massive hack-n-slack, Barbearian, for a couple of weeks now and have been loving it, even though my thumb hurts from the frantic and hectic gameplay. Last week, I wrote a bit about how the game's accessibility options make it easier for players of all skill levels to complete the game. I haven't made the game easier for myself, but do appreciate those options being…

The Company Game By: gary gogis (Chain Reaction Games) If you've enjoyed games like Blackbox or The Guides, you'll want to keep an eye out for Chain Reaction Games' The Company Game, a mysterious puzzler releasing in September that was, impressively, developed by a 14-year-old. It takes some inspiration from these games but stands out on its own due to its underlying story you unravel bit by bit, as well as the…
Powerless By: Narratio Narratio's upcoming Powerless has a compelling pitch. It's advertised as an "interactive doomsday simulator," and its goal is to put the player into realistic life-and-death situations to see how they would react and whether they could survive.
