Universal:

Tengami by Nyamyam ($4.99, 201.0 MB): To create a wonderfully unique and nostalgic experience, this story-based puzzler takes place in a beautifully crafted virtual pop-up book. Based on a Japanese fairy tale, the imaginative and tranquil journey has you exploring captivating landscapes to save the dying cherry tree. Solving the mystery will require discovering the many secrets cleverly and elegantly masked by the folds, such as the hidden bridge that magically stretches over the fountain fed stream with just a swipe of your finger. The game features 3-D graphics, authentic pop-up book behaviors with Havok engine-powered physics, soothing music, four gently color-themed stages, many mini-puzzles, single finger gesture control, iCloud backup and sync, plus Game Center achievements.

Coldfire Keep by Crescent Moon Games ($4.99, 148.9 MB): If you're ready for a new adventure, then come join this dungeon crawling quest to uncover the secrets of Coldfire Keep. The problems began centuries ago when a band of corrupt creatures invaded Newsettle. Fueled by an irresistible greed, the demons were able to be lured into the keep and confined to the structure using a magic crystal. However, recently, some of the monsters made their way through town once again, reigniting an intense fear and prompting an investigation. Fortunately, that effort, led by you, comprises four warrior-skilled party members, because unexpected secrets, challenges, and danger of the highest magnitude resides within those walls. The game features 3-D graphics, ominous soundtrack, first-person perspective, button or gesture-based controls, Bluetooth gamepad support, mini-map, more than 10 hours of gameplay involving several puzzles, and three save slots.

Bug Heroes 2 by Foursaken Media (Free, 388.3 MB): This sequel to the bug-themed dual-stick shooter sends the creepy crawler clashes into new areas. Fortunately or unfortunately, depending on how you feel about the little food scavengers, the expansion isn't so much about territory as it is power. In addition to new units, infantry variety has grown by more than double, there's the option to enlist another human player for a cooperative whooping, splattering, and smashing. However, as the adage goes, "With great power comes great responsibility." Specifically, enduring battles and achieving all objectives will require better management of resources or high sacrifices. The game features 3-D graphics, military-inspired soundtrack, three environments, 25 hero and 75 enemy units, dozens of missions, dual-thumb control from a bird's eye or over-the-shoulder perspective, Game Center leaderboards, plus solo or cooperative campaign, one-to-four person skirmishes, and single player endless modes.
