Slide blocks into their target zones in Blicke.

It’s a colorful logic puzzle game.

Why we picked this?

Blicke’s casual approach may make it seem easy at first, but it’s nothing of the sort. The goal is to get each colored block into its matching target zone with a swipe. Blocks only stop sliding when they run into a wall or another block. You’ll have to utilize both walls and other blocks in order to achieve your goal. The game includes 84 handmade levels to complete.

If you’re a fun of casual games, Blicke is about as casual as they come. It doesn’t contain any move counters or timers.

You can't skip levels you’re stuck on.

Why we picked this?

Your master has invited you to the dojo for tea, or so you thought. The real purpose for your presence is to fight the horde of monsters outside of the dojo. Your only weapon is your lantern, and each shot fired will reduce the oil, making it difficult to see where your enemies are coming from. Thankfully, your master has your back. As long as you’re alive and fighting, he’ll keep lobbing oil canisters out from the window for you to collect.

If you were a fan of the dual-stick shooter craze back in 2010, check out Teatime Samurai.

The graphical style is not for everyone.
