7. Kite Flying Festival Challenge

Kite Flying is a sport that many enjoy around the world, and now you can enjoy it even without the wind, cuts, and glue. As far the app goes, it's a pretty barebones game.

With enough wins, you'll be able to buy and collect a variety of different kite designs. For people who haven't played the sport, it might be hard to get into.
