Easy to pick up

A 1984 classic in which you play a secret agent searching rooms of Elvin's fortress for puzzle pieces, dodging robots and racing the clock to stop a missile launch.

Q*bert

Easy to pick up

A classic arcade game where the big-nosed Q*bert hops around an isometric pyramid changing the color of every cube while enemies chase him. Simple concept, fast reflex play and a punishing difficulty curve.

Puddle

Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition

Bright, upbeat tone

In Mighty Switch Force! Hyper Drive Edition you flip between two dimensions with a button press to open and close blocks and catch criminals. Its fast platforming and clever switch puzzles combine into a frantic but fair arcade challenge.

Gameplay comes before story

A precision pixel-art platformer with no jump button: you move using magnetic powers across more than 150 levels in four worlds, each introducing new mechanics.

The Sun and Moon

Gameplay comes before story

You dive into the ground and gravity flips, so your conserved momentum launches you high into the sky or deep beneath the surface. Collect the three orbs in each level and reach the wormhole, while spikes and bottomless drops make every stage harder than the last.

UFO: Unidentified Falling Objects

Gameplay comes before story

A mashup of platformer and falling-block puzzle: you dodge descending blocks while smashing them strategically to chain big combos.
