Need A New Game? Candy Crush Is Boring Compared To This One [Android]
At first glance, I Need A Hero did not seem like the right kind of game at all. The name sounds cheesy, the graphics and music did not impress me, and the background story was grossly unoriginal. The only thing going for this game was its match-3 element, which, when done right, has a definite addictive quality. Hours and hours of play later, I can tell you one thing: I was wrong.

Ilomilo: Cute, Challenging Xbox Live Puzzler For Windows Phone
I’ve largely avoided puzzle games over the last twenty years, which makes me wonder why on earth I’m reviewing Ilomilo, a Windows Phone title that features cutesy, ditsy characters with backstories that could have come from a cereal packet and plenty of puzzles. Either I’ve gone mad under the strain of playing so many Windows Phone games of late, or else Ilomilo really is rather good.

Slice It - Piece Of Cake Or A Hard Shape To Crack? Play The Very Addictive Puzzler [iOS]

Both involve the basics of physics, both are about building objects from the simplest things around us, both have a goal (a basket here to begin with), but Amazing Alex makes it a tad more fun because it’s all through the antics of a young boy and chain reactions with objects that we see around us every day.
