Much like the now thriving console indie scene, the App Store has allowed developers to take risks and come up with fantastically diverse titles. Whether requiring the manipulation of your mind or your fingers, there's a staggering variety of mobile games to be enjoyed.

The Room Two (Fireproof, iOS, £1.99) is the sequel to the original critically lauded, and Bafta-winning, title – meshing fiendish puzzles with a detailed story to create a tense horror-puzzler. Like its predecessor, you tackle puzzle boxes – but now there's more than one, with different objects and rooms to interact with – ramping up the difficulty but retaining the tactile nature of the challenge. An oppressive sense of fear permeates the game – and it's this haunting atmosphere that truly lifts this puzzler above the mind-bending pack.

Lollipop 3: Eggs of Doom (Moonbot, iOS, free) couldn't be more different in its look and feel – all bright primary colours and, as the game puts it, "joyjoy". You're tasked with releasing happiness into the world by catching the various eggs that drop down into the world and holding them with a fingertip until they hatch into puppies, kittens and other cheerful things. Easy enough with one, but when you're using all your digits to incubate multiple eggs and an evil vegetable emerges that must be flicked from the screen it becomes finger-twistingly tricky.
