Parking Mania

Parking Mania is an original game on iPhone and comes bundled with well over 100 levels. Parking Mania is a game of patience, skill and strategy and that is demonstrated more so in later levels as you try and bend around tight corners and avoid oncoming traffic. Parking Mania gets incredibly difficult in places, and is relatively enjoyable to play.

Pizza vs. Skeletons

Pizza vs. Skeletons is a fairly random game. There’s no actual gameplay motif used in the game, other than to tilt your device left/right to control an on-screen pizza. Your task is to complete any outstanding objective, whether that be to destroy skeletons, save dogs or collect coins. There’s a load of things going on in this game, but it’s far from being bad. In fact, it’s great.

Spirits has long been an established game on the iPad. Arguably the biggest influence of Spirits is the classic retro game, Lemmings.
