Quatros Origins ($4.99)
Quatros Origins is a block puzzle game that tries to reconnect with the good old days where classic arcade games were easy to play, but hard to master! The objective of the game, is to manipulate tetromino- and pentomino blocks, and placing them strategically to make at least one full horizontal line. At first sight it looks like a 2D game, but with each block you place, the platform will turn ninety degrees, giving you four playing fields. But every piece will affect every side!

Marvel: Ultimate Alliance 1 & 2 ($59.99)
Marvel: Ultimate Alliance lets players create their ultimate team from the largest superhero alliance ever as they engage in an epic quest to determine the fate of the Marvel universe.

Action News Heroes ($9.99)
No longer able to protect their own interests, Network X hires a rag tag group of mercenaries who?ve been tasked with eradicating Sabre. Your job is to destroy Sabre on live TV as Network X?s top hit news program, Action News Heroes. Put on a good show to boost Network X?s ratings, and discover why Sabre has a sudden interest in destroying Network X.

We Happy Few ($29.99, free trial)
Game Preview version
We Happy Few is the tale of a plucky bunch of moderately terrible people trying to escape from a lifetime of cheerful denial in the city of Wellington Wells. Set in a drug-fuelled, retrofuturistic city in an alternative 1960s England, you?ll have to blend in with its other inhabitants, who don?t take kindly to people who don?t abide by their not-so-normal rules.
