AppUnwrapper’s Favorite iOS Games of 2019 (GOTY List)

AppUnwrapper.com has been covering iOS games for nearly a decade now and, for the past few years, I've been listing my favorite games of each year. I started my Game of the Year (GOTY) lists in 2015, and continued with 2016, 2017, and 2018. 2019 has been another strong year for iOS games, even if you don't count the addition of Apple Arcade. I also bought a Nintendo Switch this year, though…

My Week Unwrapped: August 27, 2019 – GRIS, Telling Lies, Path of Giants, Nimian Legends Vandgels, Dead Cells and More

Hi everyone, and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the games I've been playing over the last seven days. I actually skipped last week because I spent most of it playing Telling Lies, so it didn't seem to make much sense to write a roundup for that and a couple of other games. I then spent most of this week playing GRIS, so this will still be a…

ΓÇÿGRISΓÇÖ iOS Review: An Absolutely Perfect Port

GRIS By: Nomada Studio / Devolver Digital I'm a sucker for pretty visuals, so when the trailer for Nomada Studio's GRIS was first released back in 2018, I was jealous of everyone who would be able to play it on their platform of choice. I hoped it might make it to mobile one day, but I know that platformers don't always transition well to touchscreens and the developers might not think it's…

GRIS: iOS First Impressions

GRIS By: Nomada Studio / Devolver Digital Ever since I first saw the trailer for Nomada Studio's gorgeous puzzle-platformer, GRIS, I've been hoping that it might come to iOS one day. I didn't really expect it to happen, but publisher Devolver Digital has been bringing some other great PC ports over, so I still had a little bit of hope. Well, it looks like my prayers were answered, as this absolutely stunning…

My Week Unwrapped: August 14, 2019 – SNIKS, Unhatched, Rogue Legacy, They Breathe, Witcheye and More

Hi everyone, and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the games I've been playing over the last seven days. It's been a pretty crazy week, and I've managed to play a lot of games, despite spending Saturday at Playcrafting's game conference, Play NYC. I somehow knocked out some full reviews and made plenty of gameplay videos. August is turning out to be quite the month for both quality…

Play NYC 2019 Highlights: Fourzy, That Chicken Game, GRIS and More

For the last few years, I've been going to Playcrafting's summer games conference called Play NYC. Last year was pretty lacking on the mobile front so I didn't cover it, but I wrote about my experience in 2017. This year had a pretty good turnout for mobile games, as well as games that seem like a great fit for the platform. I also checked out some PC games that looked interesting and…
