Mash Man

Valerie
Mash Man is actually a remake of a classic NES Action 52 cartridge game. Redone by Curtis Kling, the developer creates his own take on this classic game that features a grape masher that uses his feet to mash grapes and create wine. Of course, all should be well and dandy for our masher until the townsfolk decided to buy themselves fancy machines to mash the grapes. The machines prove to be more efficient, hence, our protagonist is banished into the nearby forest to live in exile. For those of you that are unfamiliar, Action 52 was actually an NES cartridge touted as having 52 games in one. Despite the hype, the games contained plenty of errors and bugs subsequently, it was discontinued. Fast forward today and a group of game developers have taken up the task to remake these not-so-great classics and at least turn them into something slightly more tasteful. Mash Man is among the results. Check it out for yourself.

Magic Planet Snack

Valerie
Here's another wizard you can learn to love. Magic Planet Snack is a colorful game that finds you playing a wizard that has accidentally turned himself into a worm. Now, you go on a quest to satisfy your hunger and devour the rest of the wizards that don't like you very much. In your journey, you end up devouring plenty of sweets and other tasty treats. You even chew your way and devour entire worlds just to quench your appetite. In the process, you gain points. Magic Planet Snack features fun and pastel bright colors. It also has a fun gameplay that anybody can enjoy off the bat. The actual storyline is a bit morbid (read it here) but thank god, the developers don't really dwell on it that much. Anyway, this'll certainly give you a good time for an hour or two.

Cut & Paste

Valerie
Cut & Paste isn't your typical sidescroller game. This cute and engaging game was actually a finalist in IGF China 2010. The game features unconventional gameplay, where players will need to cut and paste objects in order to complete puzzles and obstacles. In the game, you can use a handrawn character to move from left to right. The entire game is like a big flipbook and your character can jump from one page to the next. You can also go back several pages if you need to. As you go through the pages, you sometimes encounter pictures that are of a different shade; you can cut these and keep it in your inventory. Easily paste it onto another page that requires the item that you obtained. Definitely a cool game you should try out.

Rogue Survivor

Valerie
If you're up for some hardcore gaming (and hooked on Walking Dead right now), then check out Rogue Survivor. With plenty of things to explore, this roguelike sandbox game will definitely fizzle your brains and give you a good challenge. In Rogue Survivor you get no special skills or powers. You simply play average Joe trying to fend off and survive a zombie infestation. For every day you successfully fight off these brain eating creatures, you gain more skills and you level up. Basically, your main goal is to stay alive for as long as possible. Of course, you can always fork over to the other side by becoming a zombie and see just how many humans you can eat. Fun game that's well worth several hours of your day.

Miles Drummond: Jigsaw

Valerie
If you ever wondered what happened to those buggy Action 52 games released for SEGA back in 1993, wonder no more. Arthur Lee, with the help of pro game developers, has taken it upon himself to remake these games and add a modern flare to them. So far, 9 games have been given new life and one of these is Jigsaw. The game was remade by indie game developer, Miles Drummond. The result of his efforts is an interesting platformer that's filled with fun puzzles. Reminiscent of the Nails 'n' Scale game back in the day. Pretty much, the effort resulted in a cool game that contains fun gameplay with retro graphics. It's a bit short but enough to keep you busy on your break time.

Space Funeral

Valerie
If you are into the weird and crazy, then you'll definitely enjoy playing Space Funeral. It's a Japanese RPG that centers on the unusual and the insane. Essentially, you play Philip and you have a sidekick named, Leghorse (don't ask why) and you set off in an adventure to find the lost City of Forms (will explain in a bit.) On your way, you encounter all sorts of monsters and creatures, from ghosts, goblins, hedonists, lions, gross out monsters and even Dracula! Filled with lots of blood and weird caves, plus a cool soundtrack that pits electronica with Japanese noise rock; this game will blow your mind away. The graphics are quite original and pretty colorful as well adding to the trippy vibe of the game. Essentially a pretty unusual but interesting piece of RPG that you can play in a little over 2 hours. Have fun and try not to crazy.

Super Crate Box

Valerie
Super Crate Box is one piece of arcade marvel that you'll either absolutely love or absolutely hate. If you hate 8-bit pixel art or retro, shallow gaming; then you might want to steer clear. However, if you have always fantasized reliving the wonderful times when players played video games just to have their names emblazoned onto that shiny and shimmery 'Top Score" list; then this game will be your best friend for a good while.

Alchemy Classic

Valerie
Do you love "brain games?" If you said yes to that, then you'll enjoy this free Android game. Alchemy Classic is a simple but highly addictive game where you pretend to be the alchemist and use your powers of deduction and judgement in passing the evolution path from bacteria to mammals. This puzzle game has been winning plenty of followers ever since it came out and it's really no surprise. Even though the game graphics might look boring, once you start playing; it's hard to stop. It was developed by NIAsoft and is actually a remake of an old MS-DOS game, titled, "Alchemy." Even though it's marketed as a puzzle game for Android, it's really a no-brainer to play. Just pure entertainment and fun if you ask me. Give it a go.
