Best new iOS and Android games of the week: June 4
|

What's worth playing on your iOS or Android device this week? Funny you should ask that.

Each week we round up five of the best games from the past seven days. This week we've got an excellent puzzler, a meaty strategy game, and lots of casual kicks.

Have you been playing anything different this week? Let us know in the comments below.

Yankai's Peak
By Kenny Sun - buy on iOS

Yankai's Peak has the kind of clever mechanics, satisfying spatial challenges, and killer art style that we can really get on board with. This latest game from Circa Infinity developer Kenny Sun is one of the best puzzlers of the year.

Bouncy Hoops
By Noodlecake Studios - download on iOS / download on Android

Bouncy Hoops is one of those games you keep picking at despite yourself. There's just something in its mix of Flappy Bird controls, StarDunk hoop-shooting, and SNES-era visuals that keeps you coming back for another quick go.

Cubie Adventure
By UNIT5 - download on iOS / download on Android

A 3D platforming speedrunner with a dose of rhythm action and super-cute isometric visuals, Cubie Adventure is a thoroughly pleasant way to while away a spare ten minutes.

Epic Little War Game
By Rubicon - download on iOS / download on Android

We don't get so many meaty premium games on mobile as we used to, which means they tend to stand out more when they arrive. Epic Little War Game is the latest in the Little War Game series, so you're getting a bright, visually impressive turn-based strategy game with oodles of content and online skirmishes.

SUP Multiplayer Racing
By Oh BiBi Socialtainment - download on iOS / download on Android

SUP Multiplayer Racing is a bright and chaotic online multiplayer racing game, but it's got more in common with ReRunners than Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed. Switch between two lanes, utilised the slipstream effect, collect nitro boosts, and swipe your opponents off the track.
