SP!NG / SPING By: SMG Studio SP!NG is a one-touch swinging arcade game for Apple Arcade that's relaxing and stressful at the same time. It looks great and feels great, but can also be frustrating at times. This walkthrough guide should help if you get stuck on any levels. Feel free to ask for extra help in the comments section. This is a work in progress, so please bear with me. Note:…
Mitoza By: Second Maze / Gal Mamalya As much as I like my challenging puzzle games and action RPGs, sometimes it's nice to just play something on my iPad that's more toy than game. I'm a big fan of playful experiences like CHUCHEL and Bring You Home that focus more on experimentation than clever puzzle solutions. Mitoza is similar and, though it released about a decade ago as a flash game, publisher…
Inked By: Somnium Games / Pixmain / Nuverse Limited It's hard not to take notice when you see some screenshots from puzzle adventure, Inked, by Somnium Games. The entire game is made up of ballpoint pen drawings and it's a striking visual effect. I initially thought the art style was mostly a gimmick to stand out -- though a powerful one -- but the game surprised me in many ways. The story…

Five Dates By: Wales Interactive / Good Gate Media I'm a big fan of Wales Interactive's work, as they publish a lot of full-motion video (FMV) games and even port some of them to iOS. Still, I somehow missed the news about their dating simulator, Five Dates, until it was announced for iOS a few months after its PC release. I personally despise dating, but the idea of a game that tries…
Titan Quest: Legendary Edition By: Handygames I never played Titan Quest on PC and therefore don't have any nostalgia for it. But I do enjoy playing action RPGs on my mobile devices, so I bought the original game on iOS back in 2019 and spent a few hours with it before I ultimately stopped playing. I think a big reason for this was that it didn't have iCloud sync and I was…
Kitty Letter By: Exploding Kittens / The Oatmeal I was a big fan of Exploding Kittens back when it released on iOS, in part due to it being free of any grinding or collectibles. You simply open the app and either set up a game with friends or match with strangers and you're good to go. Each game is self-contained and you can play as much or as little as you want…
