Arcade puzzle games for iOS
Are you a puzzle gamer? My iOS devices have a mix of gaming genres, from action arcade titles and racing games, to FPS shooters and role-playing adventure games. But sometimes I also like to focus in and test my logic and problem-solving skills with puzzle games.
Some great games have come out recently that are worthy of any puzzle-gaming fan's iPhone . All of these titles are worthy of checking out, because they have plenty of challenge, are all very polished graphically, and are perfect for when you want to put your brain-teaser skills to the test.
Contre Jour (99 cents) is an arcade puzzler that veteran gamers will see as a mashup of game mechanics and inspiration from several other popular titles. Though it's been out for a while, Contre Jour is a well-executed and challenging puzzle game with polished art and sound.
On each short level of Contre Jour, you're trying to get a charming little alien (essentially, a rolling eyeball) to the level's exit. The alien doesn't move on its own, so you need to use attached ropes (some elastic, some not, some with movable anchors), slingshots, malleable ground (which you can shape with a touch), teleporters, and other elements to get the alien to its goal. Each progressive level relies on an increasingly Rube-Goldbergian series of actions, which you must carefully time to get the alien to the exit--ideally grabbing between one and three floating blue lights along the way.
Contre Jour may not introduce a lot of new ideas as a puzzler, but it does a good job of refining some of our favorite ones--and it pulls them all together into an attractive and fairly addictive package. If you're a fan of arcade puzzle games, Contre Jour is definitely worth a download.
Amazing Breaker (99 cents) is an arcade physics puzzler that challenges you to fling bombs into ice sculptures with a slingshot.
Amazing Breaker's slingshot schtick is not unique, but this app's combination of quick-playing levels, increasingly complex gameplay, and high-res graphics sets it above most physics puzzlers. In each new level, you slingshot a series of bombs up into an ornate ice sculpture, and you have to smash 90 percent of the sculpture to progress to the next level (smash 95 percent for two stars, 100 percent for three). The complexity comes in as you decide how and whether to bank bombs off the sides and top of the screen, and how you choose to array four different types of bombs in order, including "split" bombs (tap to divide into three bomblets) and "ghost" bombs (which you can maneuver as they pass through the sculpture). Add to this the occasional timed power-up and the ability to set up chain reactions if you can set off bombs near one another, and Amazing Breaker's levels can quickly become devilish brain-teasers that reward thoughtful play and arcade reflexes.
