Another year has come to an end and, once again, there were a ton of terrific games that released on iOS. It's always a little difficult to choose my favorites, but I've narrowed it down to 20 this time. I wasn't that impressed with Apple Arcade this year, but Netflix brought us some gems and they're continuing to do so in 2024. Last year, I expressed my concern about subscriptions taking over…
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 quiet week because of the holidays, so I didn't play any new games. I did fall back into the Kingdom Two Crowns hole again and resumed Kathy Rain Director's Cut, which I had skipped for a few weeks. Other than that, I've mostly been spending my…
Appunwrapper.com will turn 10 this coming year and, for the past few years I've been highlighting my favorite games. I started my Game of the Year lists in 2015, and continued with 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019. 2020 has been a crazy year, but that didn't stop developers from releasing some phenomenal iOS games.

And while the short day and night cycles could be stressful, it kept the game moving at…
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 spent much of this week in a Kingdom Two Crowns (KTC) stupor, but I still managed to squeeze some time in for other games. I also think I'm ready to take a break from KTC after spending over 40 hours playing it in the two weeks since it…
Hi everyone, and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss all the games I've been playing over the last seven days. This was another busy week with a whole bunch of new games to cover. I discovered a new obsession with Kingdom Two Crowns, was impressed by the lengths Rusty Lake goes to for their hidden puzzles, and got engrossed in Deathtrap Dungeon with actor Eddie Marsan narrating my adventure.…
Hi everyone and welcome back to My Week Unwrapped, where I discuss the games I've been playing over the last seven days. This has been a weird week, because playing a new game made me go back and give an older game another chance, then quit it again in a fit of rage, then pick it up and play more.
