The same is true in Auralux as it is on the battlefield. Auralux is a beautifully blended mixture of challenging and visually stimulating levels where you need to make precise and correct decisions based on strategy to succeed and come out on top.

Splice is a uniquely crafted puzzle game where youll be re-arranging and “Splicing” strands of cells together in just the right way to complete each puzzle. The levels in the game which are called “strands”(and rightfully so) will pose quite the challenge as the developers suggest, but accomplishing such feats required to move onto the next strand will leave you feeling pleasantly blissful on a mental level, and help you exercise your ability to predict and visualize sequential series of shapes over time.

Freeze! challenges you to help the games eerie but loveable hero (simply an eye) escape his fate and return him to happiness. Youll be tasked with solving a series of puzzles by twisting the cell that contains our games main character(and really only character) to help him get out of imprisonment and one step closer back to where he belongs. Doing so seems like it may be easy at first, and it may be, but simply turning the cell around isnt all you will have to do. Youll have to make use of the games freeze button to complete each stage, and utilizing this in combination with each cell our hero is stuck in is what will get increasingly more difficult. This unique new play style for a puzzle type game is rounded out by hauntingly beautiful black and white artistic backgrounds to paint an immersive spooky world, and finished off with equally sinister sounding music composed by a notable swiss electronic/trance musician. Freeze! Stop what youre doing and give this game a try before you waste one more second not playing it. 6.

It was the winner of the Indiecade “best aesthetics” award in 2010 as well as Sense of Wonder Night Collection at Tokyo Game Show in Japan the same year, and Winner of Best Mobile game and Honorable mention at IGF 2011. Spirits is a wonderful journey where you must help guide the spirits to their destination by using creatively placed actions to indirectly move the spirits from one end of the level to the next.

Carefully planned out choices are key, but there are multiple right ways to complete each level. You wont have any direct control over the movement of the spirits but you can dictate how you change the levels landscape or the direction the wind is blowing.
