Goat Simulator
Goat Simulator is a third person simulation game that features, err… a goat. Silly as that sounds, this game leverages a lot on its own silliness. And that’s quite ok. The game’s heart is parodying all the simulation games that came out in the last couple of years, and despite that, a lot of people have found it good fun. We don’t even want to describe the gameplay to you for fear of spoiling the fun. Just pick it up and enjoy, we dare you.

Volt
Volt is a wonderful puzzle game that doubles as a platformer as well. If you like Cut The Rope’s concept, but get bored by the app’s cartoon-y visuals, then Volt might just be the next game for you. The game takes you into a battery recycling factory where an old battery named Volt breaks loose. The game’s storyline is Volt’s dangerous trip to break free. This is a great game that you can pick up and play, and continue again the next time.
