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…
holedown By: webbfarbror AB I've never been that great at Brick Breaker, and the fast-paced nature of the game kept me from ever sticking with it and trying to get better. Now that I play games almost exclusively on a touchscreen, I really can't see investing time into a game like that. But it's undeniable how satisfying it is when you get a ball bouncing around and hitting lots of bricks before…
The Eyes of Ara By: 100 Stones Interactive I didn't know that much about 100 Stones Interactive's adventure game, The Eyes of Ara, before it got ported to iOS. But it seemed like my kind of game, so I was excited to try it. At first, my experience was a little underwhelming. I solved a few basic puzzles and found some notes that hinted to a story. I uncovered some objects, used…
Darkness Rises By: NEXON Company I don't play too many free-to-play games these days, mostly because I don't want to be constantly reminded while playing that buying my way ahead is an option. I just want to play a game and leave my wallet behind. Occasionally something just looks so good, though, that I have to try it. The latest such game is Nexon Mobile's action RPG, Darkness Rises. I was tempted…
Golf Club: Wasteland By: Demagog Studio I usually ignore golf in almost every form. I don't understand folks who enjoy watching others play golf, but I do like playing miniature golf myself, even if I'm not all that good at it. When it comes to video games, I've tried a bunch of them and none have really stuck for me. Even the gorgeous Wonderputt just felt awkward to me. So I didn't…
DR.MEEP By: HyperBeard Games (Heckmouse) There are few things that get me as excited as a new premium match-three game free of ads or in-app purchases (IAPs). I even made a list of my favorites here. So when I saw DR.MEEP appear in the pre-order section of the App Store and noticed it was by none other than Hyperbeard, the makers of Muertitos, I knew I had to play it. The quirky…
Ultra Sharp By: 1Button SARL I wasn't really planning to write a review for 1Button's Super Sharp Sequel, Ultra Sharp. I was going to work on a walkthrough, but as a free game with ads, I didn't see any reason to write a proper review when people could just download it and try it for themselves. Like its predecessor, the game is a physics-based puzzler where you need to slice through…
Hi everyone and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the iOS games I've been playing over the last seven days. I won't be covering too many games tonight, but there are still some that you need to know about, and others that maybe should be avoided. Anyway, let's skip the fluff and get straight to business. Perspecto I spent a good chunk of my week playing this cross-platform…
