Skullduggery!

Fling a skull around by stretching out your brain and reach the exit as quickly as possible in this crazy arcade game.

It’s for gamers who enjoy fast-paced action and speed runs.

$2.99 $2.99
Why we picked this?

Skullduggery! doesn’t take itself too seriously, which is what makes it so much fun. The premise is totally out there, having you play as a semi-organic autonomous skull who is a collection agent for the IRS. This skull has the special ability to utilize its brains as a flinging mechanism. It’s up to you to pull back and launch your way through each level as quickly as possible while collecting all of the loot. You’re able to play through the levels in single player mode or go head-to-head with a friend.

It’s the perfect game for those who love competing on leaderboards.

Why we picked this?

Unlike your golf game in real life, you’ll actually have full control over where the ball goes in Flick Golf HD. Just swipe from the bottom of the screen towards the top to smash the ball off of the tee. You can control the curve of the ball while it's in the air and put some spin on it to grab the green by swiping some more. The game includes three modes, eight courses, varying wind conditions, stat tracking, and achievements and leaderboards via Game Center.

If you enjoy high score games, give Flick Golf HD a try. You don’t even have to be into golf or sports in general, just whack the ball and go big.

This is a skill game. You need to put the time in to understand the nuisances that will earn you the biggest score. If that’s not your thing, this isn’t your game.
