Lil Big Invasion
Awesome indie game with way enough content to fit the bill. Its kinda like Pikmin except they are trapped in dungeons and you must find and rescue them.
Really loved the sound and the art-style. Dungeons are getting way harder and better later on and the boss fights are fun. It took me some time to get used to the controls tho. Exploration is great IF you figure out how the moths and the worms do work… which is not part of the tutorial :/
It’s cute but challenging and worth the money.

This is a fun little action adventure game, developed by my former colleague Andreas. It’s so cute, but challenging ‘til the last minute and the sounds are really funny, even if the little fireflies sometimes don’t behave as you want them to. But that’s the trick of the game and you’ll soon know how to handle them right in order to crack some highscores. Overall, an awesome game!

Dungeon Hearts
Like it a lot!
Absolutely worth a look if you like puzzle games, and maybe even rythm games like Rockband, DDR etc. TL;DR- I find it to be fun and addictive, in the good way. Buy it; it’s like $3.
It’s a fusion of your match-3 type puzzle games (Columns, Bejeweld, Candy Crush etc) with a timer aspect like the rhythm games have, mixed in special moves and an RPG aesthetic- something like an RPG version of Super Puzzle Fighter II Turbo.
As with many puzzle games, the things speed up during the course of the game/match, which ups the level of excecution required- unlike just using a keyboard to move directions and a button to rearrange like your classic puzzle games (Tetris, Columns, Puyo Puyo etc), you use your mouse to move around tiles of the same color together to form gems (chargers), which allow you to destroy the tiles/runes of enemy monsters. This gives you more freedom, but also allows for a challenge, since you have to figure out what to move where, before things scroll offscreen, resulting in either the loss of assets, or taking damage from an enemy rune which was not destroyed or moved.

A swiping/tapping match-3 game where matches equate to attacks in classic RPG battles. The concept of having a party of characters with interesting special abilities makes this match-3 game far more interesting than others of its kind and the levelling mechanic also being a match-3 is a clever touch. The music choices and unlockables are also pleasant. Easy is exactly that. Normal is reasonable, but challenging. Hard is ludicrous. All in all, it is a briefly fun experience, but is clearly designed for the mobile systems from which it was ported.

Kingdom Rush - Tower Defense
Kingdom Rush (KR) is a really fun and well-made tower defense game. I have already finished the game at 100%, 43hrs of fun, totally worth full price: 9.5/10 ¡Awesome!
In KR you’ll manage only 4 type of towers, but these towers have very good upgrades, so you’ll have to decide which upgrade is better for your situation in-game, by the way, you can sell the towers but you get a penalty receiving less money. Here a little explanation of the towers without upgrades just with their regular properties:

With over 78 levels to complete and master, Kingdom Rush remains a solid tower defense strategy game that is offered at a more than fair price. Challenge your ability to think and plan ahead whilst also maintaining a degree of entertainment and fun.
–——————————————————-
I started off playing Kingdom Rush as a casual joke: as you can probably tell, it quickly evolved beyond that. With a little over 43 hours under my belt, you can be certain that you’re receiving the most bang for your buck.
