The best iPhone and iPad games in Apple's Indie Game take over - Part Two

By , on March 21, 2017

Well the indie takeover has come to an end. Did you get all the games? Or were you having trouble deciding which was the right one for you? Well don't worry, because I've played most of them, and I've gone ahead and picked the best.

You can check out the first part of our feature by clicking on this link right here. Then you'll have six games that I can wholeheartedly recommend you go and play as soon as your little legs allow it. I don't really know why your legs have anything to do with it, but there you go.

As ever, click or tap on the emboldened name of the games below and you'll be able to grab them from the App Store. And you should. No, really, I'm being serious, you definitely definitely should.

A game that mixes together puzzling and RPG mechanics in a way that we've not seen before. Draw a path along the coloured grid in order to power up your attacks. There are robots, criminals, and all manner of other things to whomp.

Throw in some super slick presentation, and a story about a crumbling society in the distant future, and you're left with a game that doesn't just shake the foundations of the RPG puzzler genre, it rips them up and starts building all over again.

This one's a fourth person puzzle adventure. What does that mean? Well you're not controlling the protagonist directly, instead you're manipulating parts of the level so that he scurries around and sorts things out for you.

There are bells to ring, buttons to press, and all manner of secrets to find. It's also one of the best looking games I've played in a good long while. Smart, gorgeous, and wonderful on mobile. Just go and get it, okay?

Another wonderful word game from the mind of Zach Gage. Shuffle around towers of letters to create words and clear a grid. Except inevitably it's a lot more complex than that.

You need to try and clear the grid in as few words as possible, and that's a pretty daunting task sometimes. There are plenty of modes to keep you interested too, including an escalating daily mode so you've always got something new to do.
