You just can't trust pirates to play fair. In HandyGame's latest offering, four salty old sea dogs are all vying for promotion to captain. To decide who gets to take the helm they get out their mobiles and attempt to play something that looks a bit like the classic boardgame Connect 4 – only in a rotating barrel.

While trying to line up just four stones in a row, the wheel of the title spins around; dropping the stones all over the place and shuffling up your well placed tokens.

With three different modes of play, four black-toothed buccaneers to challenge and a multiplayer mode, it looks like a fascinating, freebooting twist on the classic puzzle.

4 in a Wheel has just gone on sail (you see what I did there? That was a 'pun'), so hit 'Track It!' to keep your one good eye on further coverage.

Yes. Spanner's his real name, and he's already heard that joke you just thought of. Although Spanner's not very good, he's quite fast, and that seems to be enough to keep him in a regular supply of free games and away from the depressing world of real work.
