New iOS and Android games out this week - June 1

Pinch, punch, first day of the month. No returns.
Yes, it's a new month, and one in which we suspect you'll be doing a lot of lazing around outside. Now is not the time to stem the flow of new mobile games.
We can help with that. Here's a round-up of some of the more interesting new iOS and Android releases of the week.
We should note that there's no guarantee all of these will be good. Don't worry though, we'll be running through some of the better games of the week in a few day's time.
This one's for the early birds, eager beavers, and any other term involving enthusiastic animals. Keen koalas?
