Hideaways is an immaculate take on spot-the-difference games. It unfolds through beautifully crafted worlds, handmade atmospheric music, untimed scavengers, and 144 human stories — gently woven in, where places carry real feeling and stories are discovered, not told. Both a moment of calm and a quiet challenge, Hideaways invites you to slow your breathing, calm your mind, and wander through aesthetic and auditory pleasures — all while gently exercising attention and memory, and inviting reflection on real-life moments and stories.
Lusus
Read full descriptionHide full description
Lusus is a reverse memory game where the twist is simple: instead of tapping the shapes you memorized, you must spot and tap the one that wasn’t shown. Sounds easy, until the clock starts ticking. You can also compete with friends in multiplayer mode. The rules are straightforward: memorize the shapes, find the odd one out before time runs out, and build your streak. Make a mistake, and your streak resets, so stay sharp.

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lusus at none against Hideaways's 7. Lusus also leads on ads (none vs shown). On price, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
