Help the farm animals gather all of the lost carrots in Square Borne Farm.

It’s for anyone who craves a homestyle physics-based puzzler.

$0.99 $0.99
Why we picked this?

The carrots have ended up in strange places, but if everybody uses their skills, they can be retrieved. Tap those bulls to buck her characters, get those scaredy cats to jump sky high, and so on. There’s a bigger reward for those that complete the task the quickest, which certainly could require a lot of practice. The game features 108 levels, 24 main characters plus animals, and a level editor.

If you like brain teasers and adorable, unique animals, especially those shaped into cubes.

If you get stumped, you can't rely on additional tips. Furthermore, parental controls or some supervision is advised for younger players due to the in-app purchase options.

Help Paul survive by gathering all of the brightest stars in He Likes The Darkness.

It’s for fans of platform games.

Why we picked this?

Paul is a big fan of the darkness. You’re able to help him darken his world by collecting all of the bright stars in each level. Of course, without the light of the stars it can become difficult to navigate the various platforms, so try to gather them in the most logical order. Oh, and you’re timed the whole way through. Good luck! The game includes seven worlds and 100 levels.

If you like to push yourself, this is the platformer for you.

All of the levels are timed. There’s no relief.
