The 5 Best iPhone Games of the Week
Had enough Candy Crush and looking for some fun new games to play on your iPhone? Here are five favorites TIME rounded up this week. Wrassling, Although Wrassling is truly inane in its gameplay, it's reminiscent of the classic Rock Em Sock Em Robots. Command a blockheaded wrestler and try your best to clobber your opponent even as your limbs fall off. There's something truly mesmerizing about how long you can spend playing a game this simple. Burn It Down, For a blocky, retro-looking game, Burn it Down is surprisingly plot-heavy. You wake up and find that all of the sudden, your lover is missing. The kidnapper and the motive remain unclear, but you must work your way through various, grim levels and find clues in order to get to the bottom of it. Part detective story, part haunted mansion explorer.e, Burn It Down is free in the App Store, Bouncy Bits, If you were to take Frogger and give it to the creators of Adventure Time, you'd get Bouncy Bits. It's a simple runner game with a slight twist. The goal is to navigate your character and bounce through each level while dodging obstacles. You can upgrade to new maps and players and rack up points. There are some in-app purchases you can make, like new player modes and characters, to enhance gameplay. Tower Slash, Tadpole Tap, This should have been a Game Boy Color game. Navigate a tadpole with an elastic tongue through a river and snatch various bugs and animals. As you improve, and as the game becomes more impossible, you also unlock other tadpoles to play with. Every fly you eat earns you points. There's something incredibly calming about the game's design and how easy it is to play for a few short minutes here and there.
