lines

Lines is a very visually pleasing sometimes infuriating strategy puzzler
Place your dots carefully to cover the most area of the shape.
The more you win the harder it gets...

doofus drop

this is a gloriously dumb game, very little skill required. but it is strangely compelling to fart your way into space...

the room 3

having just finished the room 2 and eager for more, I was quite happy to pay £3.99 for the room 3. it seems like a lot for a tablet game, but when you see the the amazing craft and intelligence of the design of the thing, you certainly don't feel cheated. puzzles haven't been this great since myst...

the room

not quite sure why they called it 'the room' not 'the box', because this lusciously rendered puzzler/adventure/escaper is all about opening a series of increasingly complex boxes... i suppose maybe it's a satirical nod to the whole escape room genre...
it's better than it sounds because these steampunk contraptions are quite beautifully engineered.
only a couple of hours long, but a very enjoyable headscratching couple of hours. there's also a nice hint system that nudges you in the right direction when you get stuck, and you will get stuck...

monument valley

a beautifully designed, kid friendly
escheresque puzzler.
simple, when you know the answer...

can you get to z?

really well executed hybrid of 2048 and drop7.

atomas

another nice take on a 2048 like game
with a circular mechanic rather than a grid
and elements replacing numbers.
curiously satisfying.
