Awe is not just the upcoming DLC expansion for Remedy's Control, it's also a relaxing puzzle game that initially released for the Nintendo Switch and Steam. Now it's available for both iOS and Android in a port that has apparently been adapted with touch screens in mind. It's a premium title that costs $2.99.

Awe, if you've not heard of it before, allows you to take on the role of a God in a way that allows players to express their creativity. You will be shaping planetary ecosystems in levels that are intended to be both calming and relaxing, though you can still expect the difficulty to increase as you progress further.

It promises easy to learn rules that are also hard to master, which is an aim most video games strive to meet on mobile. The goal is to alter the geographical features of each planet by using the various colour patterns that are available on the left-hand side of the screen.

As you experiment you'll discover different combinations that will be turned into a score. The higher the number of points you've obtained, the more options you'll have to shape the planets in the way you desire.

You can check out some of the gameplay from Awe in the embedded trailer above. As you can see it sports a lovely low poly aesthetic that looks to reflect the minimalist nature of the gameplay itself. It also has a soothing soundtrack that's intended to help you chill out as you build your planets.

Awe is available now over on both the App Store and Google Play. It's a premium title that costs $2.99 or your local equivalent.
