Ridiculous Fishing is fun for a while but gets very repetitive and boring pretty quickly.

Sounds like a must play to me.

I'm also going to get teat Scandinavian one from the BAFTA category.

You should all get Device 6 though. It's a text adventure where the text is the adventure.

As in, when you go down steps, the text is stepped, and you have to turn your device round, and the sound of steps plays as you drag the page across the screen.

It's a puzzle game.

I saw Nonoku get a mention elsewhere today and gave it a go - not entirely dissimilar to minesweeper, and well worth the 69p.

I started playing Device 6, but you really need to have the sound on and be writing stuff down on a piece of paper to actually get through it, and so I can rarely be bothered.

Play GBA and GBC games on your non-jailbroken iOS device (requires you to set the date back while installing but you can correct it afterwards)

Is this the splodge game? If so, am I missing something or are there occasions where logic can't solve the splodge and so you have to guess? I may have just missed an element of the logic, but if not then that irks me slightly.

I've had 2 or 3 scores with 384, but none recently. I've gone from getting scores in the 3,000 range easily, to that being a rare high score. I really think I am now over analysing each go, which is causing me to play worse than before when I was just finding my way around.

I suck at these sorts of games. I even struggle with those games where you slide tiles around to make a picture. I think 3400 has been my highest score.

Got so close to getting the 20k tile again a few times last night. I had two tiles to make it one time, but couldn't get them next to each other!

Last update to three's makes the game slightly easier.

Now the next tile will show either a colour (for a one or a two) a blank tile (for a three) or a plus symbol if the next tile is higher than a three

By the time I start paying attention to the 'next tile' one, I'm already usually in trouble!

Tsk, high score is so passe, you should be going for the lowest score.

I could never do those, either. My sister was quite good at them though. In all other respects she was and is as dumb as a brush. To this date it is her only known skill.

Theres a simple trick to it. Should take but a couple of minutes or so to learn it if told.

It's an amazing skill.

Eurogamer gave Threes! 10/10. And rightly so. The reviewer can get off his high horse about his hatred of the 'hipster asthetic' though.

I liked the music and SFX, but since I pretty much always mute games and play with music on, I didn't have time to find them annoying.

I turned the music and sfx off before I'd played it once. I still don't know what they sound like.
