Little Acorns, iOS, €0.79
Mr. Nibbles and his squirrel family have been gathering nuts to last through the winter, but their efforts are continually foiled by spiders, bumblebees, and other hazards in the forest they call home.
Little Acorns is a family-friendly adventure that’s accessible to both hardcore and casual players — never too easy, never too challenging. It blends classic platformer gameplay with a modern visual style — you'd be nuts not to love it.
Pizza Vs. Skeletons, iOS, €2.39
An epic and off-the-wall 2D platform game in which you control a 25-foot-tall pizza as it smashes through hordes of undead rivals on land, sea, and in outer space.
Not a million miles from Plants vs Zombies in some respects, especially the crazy soundtrack. The production values are superb throughout, like the Wheel of Pizza at the end of each level, the way you smash padlocks with frantic taps when a new world's unlocked.
