Welcome to the jungle is a multiplayer racing game where players play as jungle animals (monkeys, frogs, parrots, lemurs and sloths) who are racing on the backs of other jungle animals (alligators, ostriches, elephants, lion and a zebra). Players race against each other on different levels avoiding obstacles such as fallen tree logs, large boulders and small river streams. Obstacles can be avoided by dodging them or jumping over them, if you do not jump over the stream it will slow you down. Players also collect power ups they can use against their opponents to gain an edge. Power ups include bananas which you can throw at other players to slow them down, a lightning bolt which strikes down from above the tree tops to stun someone, a thick rain cloud that will hover over your opponent to obscure their view, and a bee hive you can throw that will get stuck on your opponent's head and have bees swarm them and make them randomly jump up and down also slowing them in the process. Players play through the levels collecting as much trophies as they can upon reaching first place.

It feels as if the paintings are watching you, moving as you do. You see a couple of old newspapers on a study desk with the headlines "Serial killer claims another" and "Mysterious events haunting the city". You feel like you need to escape however the front door is locked. You notice in the writing of the paper there are certain words underlined in different sentences to form the phrase "It" "all" "starts" "in" "the" "ashes". In the ashes inside the fireplace you find a key, the key unlocks the chest next to the pot plant. Inside the chest is note that reads "The painting means everything to me". Behind the painting above the chest is a safe built into the wall. There are four coloured dots on the safe, red->green->blue->black. In the book shelf there are certain books with the matching coloured dots on the covers, inside each book there is a torn out page. Each missing page number gives the digits needed for the safe in the order of the colours. In the safe is a diary with a lot of confession notes about the murderer and how his victim's haunt him inside this house, the last entry is logged "… I should be back just after dark." And "I can't stop thinking about London". On the map of London is a spot marked 'X' 'Tower of London'.

High protein food items such as chicken breasts, steaks, mince meat and carbohydrate rich foods like potato, ball of rice and pasta and also vegetables needs to be caught into the mouth of the bodybuilder. Certain bad foods will also fall down like donuts, etc will also fall down, these need to be avoided.

This is an endless scroller stacking type of game for mobile devices. The players play the game as a student in a library where the aim is to stack books on top of each other for as high as possible while keeping the noise down. The student is standing next to the stack of books on a table with a ladder, he has his arm swinging back forth and the player have to find the right timing to tap the screen to let the book drop so it is perfectly in the middle of the stack. As the stack of books grow they will start swaying, therefore it is important to place the books perfectly in the middle of the stack to try avoid swaying as much as possible. However as the stack grows very high swaying is unpreventable so it is crucial to place the books perfectly to lessen the sway effect. If a book falls off your stack you create noise and the librarian will tell you off, three strikes and then the librarian will swat at your stack in anger causing you to loose 10 books off the top. There will be different sized books and similar in Tetris if the player does not want to place the next book they can put it on hold to be placed later when they see fit. Only one book can be on hold at a time.

Levels will feature a range of different shapes and sizes but all of them will be enclosed to allow players to walk on side walls and the roofs. To walk on a wall players simply need to walk into it, the view of the map will change accordingly. Certain items can be found around levels to aid the player to complete the level. For instance a device that projects an image of the player onto a nearby wall that is in range and the player will teleport there. An item that can make one clone of the player allowing them to be able to select who they want to control for a certain time period. An item that can spawn boxes to help players reach areas that couldn't before. Once the player has collected the energy ball they need to take it to the door to unlock it, proceeding to the next level just involves simply walking through the door, a short cut scene will play to give the players a quick glimpse of the level. As some of the levels will become larger players have a mini map that reveals the area as they discover it. There are no enemies or combat involved so players play on their own time to take in the visual aspects of the level design and complete each puzzle as they want.

If you get caught it is game over and you have to start from the beginning. If someone starts to suspect its you there are things you can do to make them not suspect you. The way to not get caught is controlling the noise, who is around you and how close they are. If the suspicion meter goes into the red it means someone is onto you. If it stays in the red for too long someone will ask you if it was you, then players have to tap as fast as they can on the screen to get the suspicion meter back in the green zone failure to do this will result in getting caught and them its game over.

Runaway Bus is an endless scrolling 2D top down point of view game for mobile devices. Players play as the driver of the bus and have to swipe the bus left and right between lanes to avoid traffic and obstacles. On each level players have to reach bus stops before the timer runs out to drop off and pick up people. The further the game progresses the harder levels get, meaning the bus travels faster, more traffic and decreased amount of time to reach the next stop. If you crash into other cars or obstacles the satisfaction of people onboard will decrease, if it decreases too much it will affect your score for each level. Crashing into things will affect the look of the bus making it have dents appear on it. It will also gradually make the bus travel slower, making it harder for the player to reach destinations before the timer runs out.

Or players can draw a sword to help fight off an enemy. While drawing the game will be paused. If the the drawing is not recognized by the game, it will bring up a list of objects that looks similar to what is drawn. The players can then pick from that list what they wanted.

Players can collect 'magic pencils' for extra points on each level, however these items are in hard to reach spots.
