While not a "game" in the traditional sense of the word, the iLovecraft Collection is a series of interactive stories that are based on popular tales from the renowned American horror writer H.P. Lovecraft. The first volume features three Lovecraft masterpieces – Dagon, The Hound, and The Window (Fungi from Yuggoth).
The app enhances these classics by adding with interaction, illustration, animation, FX, and OST. The entire first volume is available in 4 languages, contains 125 pages and more than 46 illustrations, 50 animations, and 60 interactive pages. You can tilt your phone to reveal what's in the shadows, touch objects to uncover obscured details, and turn to see if anything lurks off-screen.

You know, right before the interesting stuff starts to happen. That’s exactly our Feste's job: find a hero, give them their call to adventure, and be done with it. No exploits, no saving the world.

Dungeon999 is a really neat RPG game. The world has been overpopulated with increasingly aggressive slime monsters and you're tasked with culling them to restore peace in your town. The slimes all live in a dungeon with 999 levels and, guess what, you'll have to clear it out.
The main characters of this game are the wandering warrior Jack and Rose the magician (yeah, just like Titanic). Rose has to gather enough mana in order for you to pass a given stage. During this time she can't move so you'll have to protect her from the slime with Jack. Rose can cast some pretty devastating spells; however, so use these to your advantage.
Dungeon999 features lovely retro graphics and a really fun storyline, so we definitely recommend that you give it a try.
