Touch Arcade

I encourage everyone to give this game a try, even if you're a vigilant hater of free to play. Monetization methods aside, you'll still be able to see what a clever formula Supercell has stumbled upon to here with this hybrid of card games, strategy games, and MOBAs. Hard limits on session time make it a phenomenal game to play on the go, and it can be played in portrait mode in one hand which only serves to make things easier.

If you are looking for a board game designed for two players that feels strategic but tries out some fresh ideas, Patchwork delivers a replayable experience that weaves a great theme with solid mechanics.

So, Telltale has another hit on its hands, and as long as you have even the slightest interest in the character of Michonne, you should definitely be playing this miniseries.

PRISM is definitely more toward the first category, but I still found it absolutely delightful from beginning to end. If this is what we can expect from the projects coming out of Stugan, I can’t wait to see what’s next.

The game costs $6.99 with no IAPs and is definitely worth your money, your time, and the tears you'll shed every time you lose.

As it stands, trying it out for free and judging for yourself if the pacing and repetition is enough for you to stomach would be a great idea. In the meantime, I see lots of potential for Lakewood Plaza somewhere down the line.

With no IAP in sight and great pacing, Rogue Agent is a great way to spend an evening for stealth fans. There's enough variety in there to keep you busy, and though the aesthetics may not grow on you over time, the gameplay will.

If you like your board games with some wine on the side and a shot of zen relaxation, Tsuro should hit the spot.

But if you enjoyed Rayman back in the day, this is a solid port of the game that you can take anywhere. And if your reflexes aren't what they once were 22 years ago, well, you'll praise the Easy mode as you rediscover just how brutal Rayman was.

These 2,000+ words are probably way more than are needed to get someone to download and try a free game, but hopefully that's a testament to the impression Tennis Champs Returns has left on me, and hopefully plenty of people will get the same type of joy out of the experience that I have.
