Rodeo Games's Bronze Award-winning Hunters: Episode One is a turn-based strategy game that's reminiscent of Square Enix's Final Fantasy Tactics series and the über-popular X-COM.

In this title, you're tasked with helping a team of battle-hardened mercenaries wipe out some of the universe's most dangerous scum.

Each day, you're given a new set of jobs (called contracts), which you have 24 real-world hours to complete.

King Oddball is a rather strange title. In it, you take on the role of a miffed king and attempt to flatten targets with huge boulders that you launch with your tongue.

Your aim, then, is to crush as many targets as you possibly can with each and every boulder that you let loose in order to wipe out the human civilisation.

You do this across 120 levels, which are packed with collapsing structures and plenty of opportunities to unlock Game Center-powered achievements.
