Tiny Archers is, as you probably gathered, an archery game for iOS. In it you control one of three immobile bow-wielders, (two of which must be unlocked) who perch on the left-hand side of a 2D playing field and rain down arrows on the orcs and goblins pillaging their respective …

GramGames has released a tacky puzzle game dubbed Six!. It is almost an “anti-stacking” game, as instead of trying to balance a tower by building up, the aim is to remove blocks to progress lower and lower. All the while, a hexagon block is perching on your tower, and by …
