There will be a number of obstacles, so the player has to avoid them by changing lanes. Once the player's car gets close to the target's car, the screen will change to aiming mode. However, in this mode the aiming point is still shaking, so the player still needs to tilt the smartphone to get the aim right. If the player fails to kill the target within 5 seconds, the aiming mode will change back to the driving mode again, the target's car will be faster, and already some distance away from the player, so the player needs to chase them to get into the aiming mode again. Also there will be some items, for example, a booster item which will make the player's car faster, so the player can get closer to the target's car easier. The items can be acquired rarely in game by killing the target, but mostly the player is able to get the items by purchasing them in a shop menu with the money they earned from the previous stages, before he/she starts a stage.

Puppet Master is a puzzle adventure game. It will be side scrolling, the player needs to move from the left to the right of the screen, however, the player has to move the shadows of the characters by controlling the flash light.

At the start of the game, there will be a character on the screen, and as a part of the interface there will be a flashlight which the player can control. The player can control the direction it is pointing, and move it anywhere on the screen. So when the player wants to move the character forward, he/she needs to set the light at the back of the character so that its shadow turns up at the front of the character (and every object, and the environment of the game will be shown as shadows).

There will be a number of simple puzzles, for example, pushing a cube to fill a gap in the ground so the character can walk over it. But the player only can push the cube by touching it with the shadow of character, so the player needs to control the direction of the character's shadow to reach the cube. For another example, there will be a box which is hanging on the ceiling with a rope and seems like it is impossible to reach, but the player can control the light to make the character's shadow reach the box.

Also there will be fighting with a few monsters, when a monster turns up the character will automatically hold his/her weapon, so the only thing the player needs to do is to move the shadow of the character towards the monster. The monster will keep moving forwards and backwards (which means left and right in the screen). Also the player is able to hide the character by getting into the shade which will be shown on the map. When the character's shadow is in the shade, the monsters are not able to detect it.

When the player reaches the end of the stage, which will appear as a gate, the stage will be cleared. However when the player (the shadow) dies during combat or falls into a trap (the gaps on the map) the game will be over.

So, the player has to close every door in the maze to avoid fighting with the monsters. The monsters will get stronger as time passes, so it is better to close the doors as fast as possible. Also, if the player does not close all of the doors in the maze, the exit of will not open.

The player can fight with the monsters which are following him/her, however it can be better not to fight with them to save time.

The players will get more experience points when they clear the stage faster.

The stages will get harder as the player levels up, which means the maze will be more complicated and the monsters will be stronger.

The basic rules of the game are simple. The player just needs to attack the monsters which have a different colour to his/her colour. When the game starts, the player will start the game with a random colour, and the monsters which have the same colour as the player will not attack the player. And every time the player attacks the monsters with the same colour, then the total score will be decreased.

Also, while the player is running to the end point of the stage, there will be a number of items which the player can pickup to change their colour. But, there are two types of items, one makes the player colour change to the colour of the item, the other makes the item's colour mix with player's current colour. (Of course, the shape of the items will be different) For example, when the player is red and there is an item coloured yellow, once the player touches the item the player's colour will change to orange. When the player does not want to change their colour, the player can ignore the items.

It will be important to change colour at the right time for the player, depending on the number of monsters of each colour remaining on the map. When the player reaches the end of the stage within the time given, the stage will be cleared.

The platform will automatically go down the floors one by one. The player needs to check and clean the dusty windows in the current row, the number of the windows in a row will be gradually increased as the player goes to further stages. Before the platform moves down to the next floor, the player has to clean the windows in the row by swiping the screen with his/her fingers.

The Mole is a 3D stealth game with realistic graphics, in which the player needs to sneak into a target company to carry out industrial espionage.

The main purpose of the game is that player needs to hide his/her identity, and get the information the client required, and after that the player has to run away from the company without being caught.

The player is not able to kill the people in the target company so it is crucial to change his/her appearance at the right time or hide using objects on the map.

When the game starts, the player will get a mission on his/her phone, and the mission has a time limit and a brief information of the target company such as a basic map of the company and the timetable of the security people, and a brief location of the document or materials the player needs to get.

The player can change their appearance by catching an employee around the building, for example, when the player gets into the building through front door, they can seduce a person around the player by starting a conversation, choosing the right dialog options, and make the person follow the player. Once the player brings them to a quiet place (the player can check the map all the time which shows peoples' movement in a floor the player is in), the player can make the person black out for a while. The person's time of being blacked out will be different depending on the type of the person, for example security people will be blacked out for a shorter time than office workers, and it will be harder to seduce them (like if the player wants to seduce the security people there will be some requirements that the player needs to wear an employee access cards, so the player has to change their

appearance to an employee before seducing the security people). The player needs to start trying to seduce other people before the previous person wakes up, otherwise the people in the target company will start to search the building to find the player. As the player reaches higher levels, other obstacles and mechanics will become available. For example, if the player needs to get access to the company server, he/she will need to make the IT employee leave the server room. To do this, he/she could infect a computer with a virus, so the IT worker will go to fix that computer.

So, once the player reaches the location of the document, and gets out of the building without being caught and sends the document to the client, the level will be cleared. However, if the player gets caught or does not finish the mission within the time given, the game will be over.
