Exactly what it says in the title. The fake ads for fake mobile games you see, funneled into a minigame structure. I think it could have benefited from some kind of WarioWare style randomized challenge, maybe a two-player feature where you race against each other. There’s exactly one randomized puzzle minigame, and its only unlocked after you’ve completed all 200+ of the original puzzles. Spice it up, gimme some variety! As it is, it's a perfectly fine $10 minigame collection.

It's not a game I can play for long fragments of time. When I was a kid, I loved playing puzzle games during road trips. I’d spend hours putting everything in the right order or navigating small digital labyrinths. But the thing about road trips is that I get 1. Aggressively car sick and 2. Incredibly existential. Those Games hit that exact emotional core, to the point that I can’t tell if its the game itself putting me into that existential nausea about if I’m wasting my life, or if that’s just how my brain connects those pieces of information. Hard to give an unbiased review with that in mind.

If you want silly puzzles, wait for a sale. That’s the best I can communicate.
