148Apps round-up: Pixel Burger, Cascade, 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…
Pixel Burger
By Squidshaped
"Pixel Burger is an adorable amalgam of pixelated foodstuffs and stacking that's easy to pick up and oh-so-difficult to put down, like a tasty burger." (Brittany Vincent)
Cascade
By Big Fish Games
"Cascade is a fairly typical Match-3 game but it offers a minor twist in the form of what gems are at your disposal." (Jennifer Allen)
SBK14
By Digital Tales
"SBK14 technically marvels, but lacks soul." (Jordan Minor)
Tanks vs. Aliens
By Red Prawn Games
"Tanks vs Aliens provides plenty of retro shooter thrills." (Jordan Minor)
CalQ
By Daniel Albert Sánchez
"Solve simple sums quickly in this fast-paced game of numbers." (Jennifer Allen)
Globosome: Path of the Swarm
By Fabian Schaub, Thomas Krueger
"Likeable despite some occasionally awkward control options, Globosome: Path of the Swarm is a fun game all about exploration and finding your comrades." (Jennifer Allen)
Cube & Star: An Arbitrary Love
By Doppler Interactive
"Quirky and just a little bit odd, Cube & Star is an interesting exploration of the world and our impact upon it." (Jennifer Allen)
Mighty Adventure
By Pixel Trap
"Switch between three characters in this twitchy auto-runner." (Jennifer Allen)
Bungle!
By Ghost Crab Games
"Bungle! is a simple, silly reflex game that's lots more fun than working a cruddy summer job." (Nadia Oxford)
