If Photoshop isn’t your thing, you’re going to love Visage Lab PRO. It’s just as powerful without all of the hassle.

Super Durak

Kirill Edelman

Play Durak, the famous Russian card game, no matter where you are.

Fans of Durak will surely get the most out of this one, but it’s also a great way to introduce the game to beginners since there’s an interactive tutorial.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

This is one of the best and most stylized digital card games you’ll ever play. The object of the game is to get rid of your cards before your opponents do, otherwise you’ll be the Durak. Trust us, no one wants to be the Durak. You’ll need to play offensively, defensively, and have a little bit of luck to avoid being the loser. Smart hints will help you determine where cards can be played, and all you have to do is drag or tap cards to interact with them.

If you like card games of any kind, you’re going to love Super Durak. It is a little challenging at first to get the hang of, but once you do you’ll be asking everyone to join you in online or local multiplayer games.

If you’re new to the game of Durak, learning the rules may be a bit of a challenge. It’s not the most simple card game, after all. Additionally, playing against AI opponents isn’t all that fun, so you will need to gather up some friends to play.

Tower of Fortune 2

Game Stew

Reach the summit of the legendary second tower to claim your wish in this sequel to the hit retro-style RPG, Tower of Fortune.

It’s obviously ideal for those who enjoyed the original game or for those who generally enjoy RPGs.

$1.99 $1.99
Why we picked this?

Like the original, Tower of Fortune 2 employs a neat slot machine mechanic for battling opponents. Tap the button to spin the reels and tap again to stop them in hopes of dealing damage, collecting gold, or obtaining a special item. You’re able to stop the reels mid spin as well to perform a combo or avoid an attack, but it will cost you additional gold. The game includes nine worlds to explore, seven mini-games, 50 challenging events, more than 60 unique enemies, 50 random abilities, 24 NPCs, and achievements via Game Center.

If you’ve grown tired of the same old RPGs in the App Store, give Tower of Fortune 2 a try. Its slot machine mechanic really changes up the gameplay.

Tower of Fortune 2 contains quite a bit of grinding. If you’re not willing to put the time in, you won’t get very far.
