New games are great, but let’s get real for a moment: there’s only one thing you really care about downloading on your iPhone or iPad this week, and it’s iOS 9. If you already have it, there’s a good chance you’re hating the font change. (I know I do, and I’m not alone!)
Do yourself a favor; find a distraction from how weird your clock now looks by playing something fantastic.

Resonance Unlimited
Described as “a hyperkinetic music game,” Resonance Unlimited is like the unholy lovechild of Super Hexagon and Elite Beat Agents. And if you ask me, that’s awesome.

Star Trek: Wrath of Gems
If you were getting worried that match-3 gamemakers had completely run out of big franchises to adapt, relax. Today’s release of Star Trek: Wrath of Gems is a pleasant reminder that there are always more things we love that can boiled down to matching three or more like-colored gems.
