You've always dreamed of shouting "Fire the torpedos! More power to the shields!" I have too, and this is why I built Quintet. Quintet is a multiplayer space game where players work harmoniously to control the same ship. There are 5 roles: Captain, Helm, Tactical, Engineering and Science. How successful you are will depend on how well you all work together. Quintet is especially fun to play in the same room with friends. Don't be shy about playing out your roles in person and using strange accents. There are also one, two, three and four player ships available. Other Great Features: * Desktops, Laptops, and iPads can all play together on the same ship. * Players ships can play with or against other player ships. Note: * Gameplay requires an Internet connection. * Quintet is graphics intense! Runs best on iPhone5 or iPad 2 and up!

Catfinity is an idle RPG with an unreasonable amount of game inside it. Adopt a colony of pixel cats, give every one of them a job, and send them after loot. They keep earning while you're away, and NAPPING is literally how you get stronger — the whole prestige ladder is built around the laziest thing a cat does. JOBS Thirty classes, from Rancher and Fishercat to Ninja, Necromancer and Pyromancer. Each has its own hat, its own levels, and abilities that change what your colony earns. QUESTS & DUNGEONS Build a balanced five-cat party — tank, healer, support, damage — choose your own difficulty, and read the real odds before you commit. A failed run costs you time, not cats. RAIDS A daily world boss with stances and weaknesses, holding the only Mythic and Rainbow gear in the game. FISHING A pixel pond stocked with 58 species, rare chests, better rods, and one extremely elusive Rainbow Shark. THE RANCH Raise chickens, ducks, bees, pigs, sheep, cows, horses and more, from wobbly babies to grown-ups, each finding its own colour as it comes of age. Collect eggs, milk and honey, cook with them, and dress every pasture. MOUNTS & ENCHANTING Any grown-up animal can carry a cat, a monster or you. Bees and butterflies lift their rider into the sky. Brew enchantments for gear, mounts and cats with the NekoMancer. LEADERBOARDS Every month is a fresh season that resets for everyone at the same moment, so a new colony is never racing a two-year-old one. 500+ achievements along the way. COLLECT & BUILD 21 cat breeds across five biomes. Potions to brew, ore to mine, herbs to grow, and a dog, a bear and a tortoise who move in and stay. PRESTIGE Naps, cosmic naps, Purrvana, and beyond. THE HONEST PART Free to play forever. Purchases are cosmetics, music tracks and small boosts — no paywalls, no energy timers holding your cats hostage. Ads are optional and rewarded-only. Offline progress means the colony never stops purring. Check in for two minutes or lose an entire evening. The cats don't judge. Much. Another cat game? Yes. You're welcome.
