Dracula Twins will take you straight down memory lane. Take the fight to Doctor Lifelust’s undead army as you make your way over, under, and around obstacles in order to reach each level’s exit. Your character is armed with skulls that can be tossed at enemies or you can simply bounce off of them. Search low and high to collect every last coin, letter, and emblem in order to earn a 100 percent rating.

Old Maid is a timeless classic with a colorful new look. The object of the game is to pick a card from the player on your left in order to fill your hand and create pairs, which can be immediately discarded. Every card in the deck will have a pair except the Old Maid. Just don’t be the player with the Old Maid at the end in order to win. The game includes an amusing cast of characters, instructions, and stat tracking.

Tayasui Sketches artfully mixes simplicity and power to provide you with the perfect canvas. It offers a wide variety of art creation tools including felt and ink pens, watercolor and acrylic brushes, an airbrush gun, and oil pastel. Brushes and pens can be edited in a variety of ways, and you’re able to layer your strokes to create depth. What really makes Tayasui Sketches stand out, however, is its stylus support. It allows anyone with a Wacom, Hex, Adonit, Pencil by 53, and Pogo Connect stylus to add strokes that change their angle and width based on pressure.
Tayasui Sketches II Pro is available for free for a limited time. It has a 4.5-star rating with a total of 859 ratings.
