About

Chase the Bone

Features
Read full description

Every dog is hungry, and there are blocks between them and their bones. Slide the blocks to clear a path. As soon as a dog can reach a bone, it runs over and eats it. Feed every dog before the timer runs out and the level is done. The first levels are easy. Then the bees show up. Dogs won't walk anywhere a bee can reach, so you'll need to use the blocks to shut the bees in before you open the way. Some bones sit on top of blocks, and when a dog eats one, that part of the block is gone. Sometimes that opens a new path. Sometimes it leaves you one block short. • Drag a block, let go, and watch the dogs run • Levels get trickier the further you go • Bees, walls and oddly shaped blocks to work around • Most levels take a minute or two

About

Chess Crush!

Features
Read full description

Chess Crush turns the classic game of chess into a colorful puzzle challenge. Every piece on the board has its own color, and your job is to find pieces that share a color so they can crush each other and vanish from the board. Pieces still move the way you'd expect from chess: bishops glide diagonally, rooks slide in straight lines, knights hop in their signature L-shape, and so on. Instead of capturing an enemy king, you're using those same movement rules to line up same-colored pieces and clear them out two at a time. Every level gives you a limited number of moves, so plan ahead. Chain the right captures in the right order and you'll clear the whole board before you run out of turns. Rush in carelessly and you might get stuck with pieces you can no longer reach. It's a fresh spin on both chess and puzzle games, easy to pick up but full of tricky positions that make you think several moves ahead.
