Wobbly Stack AR is a fun way to try out AR and pass some time. Your iPhone or iPad acts as your tether, providing precise controls that allow you to twist, pull, and push blocks around. The dynamic Haptic feedback system makes it as if you can feel the blocks, but it’s only available on iPhone 7 and newer devices. Varying block sizes create an extra layer of strategy. Wobbly Stack AR also includes pass-and-play multiplayer.

Out There Chronicles is an interactive game book based on the acclaimed space exploration game, Out There; but you don’t have to have experienced the original to enjoy this adventure.

It’s up to you to develop relationships, learn the language of alien races and discover their cultures, and make decisions that change your fate. The game includes beautiful illustrations by Benjamin Carré, captivating music, and an original story by FibreTigre.

Planett provides simplicity in a complex world. When adding a plan or a task, you’re asked to enter a description, location, date, and time. Your item will then be placed in a scrollable list on the main screen, where you can check it off, delete it, or move it to another day with just a swipe. Across the top of the screen you’ll see your entire week at a glance. As an added bonus, you can swap out the photo within the planner to either inspire or reflect your day.
