Get the buckets of paint to their paint brushes in Telepaint.

Fans of puzzle games.

Why we picked this?

Telepaint is rhythmic, messy fun. Little buckets of paint run around the screen on their own. It’s up to you to activate portals in order to guide them around traps, towards keys, and eventually to their paint brush friends. Portals can be activated with a tap, and you can mix and match them as you please. The game includes six worlds, over 100 levels, and movements that are synced with the beat.

You’re into indie games. Telepaint’s complex puzzles will keep you on your toes.

You prefer games where you’re in direct control of the characters.

Kiwake ensures that you will get out of bed in the morning thanks to its three step wakeup process. Start off by creating your alarms for the week. You can create multiple alarms if necessary and have them repeat as often as you like. Kiwake then requires you to pick an object that’s away from your bed and take a picture of it, choose from a handful of mini-games, and create some goals for the day or add a motivational message. When the alarm sounds, you’ll have to return to that object and snap a picture, successfully complete all of the mini-games, and read your goals or message before you can disable it.

You’re always running late because you can’t get out of bed.

You just want a regular alarm clock.

The followup to the smash hit tower defense game, Tesla Wars.

Those who enjoyed the original but want more firepower.

Why we picked this?

Just like the original, your job is to keep the faceless invaders from reaching your Tesla tower. This time, however, bigger and more powerful weapons are at your disposal including six auxiliary turrets. The main tower still is the most powerful, allowing you to strike down your opponents by tapping and holding your finger on them to send off an electric charge. By completing various goals and ensuring no invader reaches your tower, you’ll be rewarded with cash. The cash can be spent on upgrades and special attacks. The game includes a total of 80 levels, and a survival mode.

You enjoy tower defense games. It’s quite challenging since the invaders can come at you from all angles.

You didn’t enjoy the original. It follows the same formula.
