The Agency of Anomalies: Mystic Hospital - A Hidden Object Adventure by Big Fish Games, Inc (Free, 451.5 MB): Save the world from another dimension in this intriguing sci-fi-based hidden objects adventure game. It's a case like none other. A medical expert formerly employed by the military comes to you from the figurative shadows with a situation "of life or death." Supposedly, a secret project that involved experiments to create the perfect soldier by harvesting paranormal energy has taken a terrible turn. Go to the abandoned hospital, locate and destroy the assumed resurrected technology, thus preventing the dimensional vortex from opening and releasing an army of creatures never seen by man. The game features vintage 3-D graphics, narrated dialogue, regenerative hints system, and dozens of mini-puzzles. Begin the experience at no cost, then unlock the remainder of the story for $1.99.
Rubik's Fifteen by Oliver Klemenz (Free, 5.3 MB): This Rubik's Cube-inspired sliding tile puzzler is a fun and fresh way to put your brain to the test. Crafted in the design of an actual handheld game, the virtual two-aided board has several push-style gliding switches that shift entire single or multiple rows or columns vertically or horizontally, which brings us to the task explanation. Either align the 15 Roman numerals in ascending order inside of a 4-by-4 grid area, having the asterisk stamped wild at the bottom-right and the assembly located in the top-left, otherwise, flip to the backside and attempt to arrange the numbers 1-9 in the correct order within the 3-by-3 grid. The game features 3-D graphics, optional sound effects and augmented reality background using the iSight camera, up to 3-finger multitouch support, gyro or touch-based panning, plus shuffle and auto-solve.
NOTE: Game Center integration is noted in the developer's description, although, the leaderboard for Best Time wasn't appearing during my tests.
