Mojo Bones's The Curse is a Pocket Gamer Silver Award-winning collection of increasingly difficult puzzles, mini-games, and brainteasers.

Basically, you've stupidly opened an ancient book and unwittingly released a mischievous adversary known as the Mannequin.

If you wish to banish your newfound foe and correct your mistakes, you must first complete the 100 challenges he sets you.

These challenges involve solving riddles, completing electrical circuits, and finishing those pesky sliding block puzzles that everybody hates.

Extinction Squad

You're a daredevil scientist called Chuck Darwin, whose job is to travel across the globe with your elite team of zoological defenders in order to rescue endangered animals.

There are two different modes in this title - Adventure and Countdown - but your aim is the same across both of them: whip out your purpose-built trampoline and bounce a variety of critters to safety.

Throughout your adventures across Africa, Australia, Asia, and Antarctica, you can buy and collect useful upgrades that will make your mission slightly easier.
