Hi everyone and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the games I've been playing over the last seven days. Once again, I'm a day late with this, but it's for good reason. I took a much-needed break to spend some time with family over the holidays, and then I went into overtime writing several reviews in the past couple of days. So while I didn't get to play…
Kingdom Rush Vengeance By: Ironhide S.A. Sometimes it's fun to play the villain. That's the idea behind Kingdom Rush Vengeance, the latest tower defense (TD) game from Ironhide. This time, you're controlling an army of monsters instead of goody-two-shoes heroes. It's not the first time a series has done this. In fact, one of my favorite TD games, Legendary Wars, got a sequel that did the exact same thing. Monster Wars flipped…
A Mortician's Tale By: Laundry Bear Games Inc. Three months ago, the only grandparent I ever knew passed away and, even though she lived close to me, she was buried abroad. As someone who's bad at taking spontaneous trips, I made the poor decision not to attend her funeral. Without that closure, my brain hasn't fully acknowledged her passing and I also haven't truly mourned. So I understand firsthand how important it…
Humbug By: Dunderbit Earlier today, I read a sort of post mortem from Radiangames' Luke Schneider about his recent release of Slydris 2, which I've been pretty obsessed with over the last week. In it, he talks about how stressful it is to release a free-to-play game on the App Store, especially as a solo dev. Instead of creating a game, feeling good about it and selling it to people, the developer…
Humbug By: Dunderbit Humbug is a stylish new puzzle game from Dunderbit, in which you move insects around the board to land on the star tiles. Each creature has a different movement pattern, so you need to use them with each other to solve each puzzle in the minimum number of moves. This walkthrough guide will help you if you get stuck. Feel free to ask for extra help in the comments…
Kingdom Rush Vengeance By: Ironhide S.A. See my review here. Kingdom Rush Vengeance is the latest game in the tower defense franchise, and this time you play as the bad guys. I posted videos of my playthrough for anyone who needs help. I used only the included towers and heroes and made sure not to use extra upgrade points than you would have by the time you get to each level. Each…
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! It's that time of the year again, where we get together with family and think about how grateful we are and trample people for Black Friday deals. Luckily, you don't need to wait in any midnight lines in the cold to get these iOS games sales! I mean, you can if you want, but that won't make them any cheaper. Anyway, I'm including sales I think are noteworthy along…
Slydris 2 By: Radiangames While I adore my iPad and all the adventure games I've played on that nice big screen, my first love is still my iPhone. It's basically glued to my hand, so by default any games that easily play with one hand in portrait mode are going to get more of my attention. And that means that I'm always on the lookout for relaxed, endless puzzle games that can…
