Go To Gold 2 - Chinese Puzzle By: Timur Nigmetzianov I didn't call this a review, because it's not so much a review as a love letter to the developer. I haven't even gotten that far into the game yet. I just feel the need to shout from the rooftops how much I love what Timur Nigmetzianov does with his games. He respects his players, and that's rare in an App Store…
Magic Flute by Mozart By: Lab Like **Update: The game is now live. You can read my review here and see my walkthrough here.*** A while back, I saw a short preview of the 3D puzzle game, Magic Flute by Mozart. I hadn't heard anything about it in a while, so I had almost forgotten about it. It turns out the developers, Lab Like, have been working hard on the game and…
Dead Synchronicity By: Daedalic Entertainment GmbH Dead Synchronicity: Tomorrow Comes Today, by Daedalic Entertainment, is advertised as a dark, disturbing, dystopian point-and-click adventure, and it more than delivers on that promise. This is a game that's mostly devoid of humor and has you making some morally questionable decisions to "do what you gotta do" to get things done. The game starts with the protagonist waking up in in a trailer home in…

The Guides By: Luke Lisi and Kevin Bradford I was recently lamenting the fact that I haven't seen too many mobile games lately that were designed specifically around mobile devices. Joel McDonald's wonderful Prune is what got me thinking about all the games that originally got me into iPhone gaming, the ones that made my iDevice feel magical. Then, out of the blue, I get an email about this puzzle game called…
Prune By: Joel Mcdonald My first impression of Prune was that it's going to be more art than game. I got some very strong Monument Valley vibes from it, especially with its minimalistic icons and very similar camera feature. That would be fine, as I do love games as art. But as I progressed, the levels got significantly more challenging. Like any good puzzle game, it throws new elements at you every…
The Long Siege By: Anomaly Studios Pte Ltd Match-three games are my go-to games for trains, waiting in line, lying in bed and similar settings. The problem is that the majority of them these days are filled with consumable in-app purchases (IAPs) that I don't have any patience for. So I'm always on the lookout for a good premium match-three without IAPs. My absolute favorite is Hero Emblems, but I ran out…
Brain It On! By: Orbital Nine My initial reaction to Orbital Nine's physics-based game Brain It On! was that I'm too dumb for it. I nearly gave up after getting stumped just a few levels in. But instead, I decided to stick with it and see what would happen. At some point it just clicked and I was three-starring every level. I was hooked. Brain It On! has a very minimalistic appearance.…
