148Apps round-up: Hipster CEO, Pulse Racer, PBA Bowling Challenge, and more
The week in casual games
Time is limited. Apps are plentiful.
How can you make sense of the ever-increasing number of new games in the App Store? Well, by reading Pocket Gamer, of course. But we can't possibly cover everything, and there are some games that just don't fit in our wheelhouse.
Thankfully, our friends over at 148Apps are here to save the day. Take a look at some of the casual games that have caught the attention of the 148Apps team...
Wizardous: An Apprentice's Betrayal
By Broken Crayon Games
"Wizardous is a magical side scroller that has all the traits of a retro 8-bit classic, complete with an addictive soundtrack." (Arron Hirst)
Hipster CEO
By Getchoo Creations
"Grow a business while still being slightly hipster-ish in this original, text focused business strategy game." (Jennifer Allen)
PBA Bowling Challenge
By Concrete Software
"While not a surefire strike, PBA Bowling Challenge still has the potential to cause plenty of damage to a wallet." (Blake Grundman)
Decromancer
By UNIT9
"Build a card army and battle over a beautifully illustrated landscape in this free-to-play, deck-building, strategy game." (Campbell Bird)
Pulse Racer
By Andrew Gotow
"Pulse Racer is a rhythm-based game where players fly along generated courses to collect notes that are synchronized to the music that plays." (Angela LaFollette)
Stack Rabbit
By Disney
"Moving the Match-3 genre to a 3D perspective, Stack Rabbit is fun but surprisingly tricky after a time." (Jennifer Allen)
Silent Valley: Mystery Mansion
By G5 Entertainment
"Spooky thrills and some entertaining puzzles await those who check out this casual adventure game." (Jennifer Allen)
Backyard Monsters: Unleashed
By Kixeye
"Proving initially quite generous, this F2P monster rearing game is quite fun." (Jennifer Allen)
All this, plus Carter Dotson chronicles the creation of Star Wars: Tiny Death Star, and Jennifer Allen chats with the developers of Luxuria Superbia.
