So did anyone check out Unmatch? It's an great, cleverly-designed puzzler. Reminds me a bit of Dwelp in some ways

Kind of a silly request, but are there any good word search games? My wife wants one for her iPad. The one I downloaded yesterday was loaded with ads and IAP.

On the flip side, I can't imagine a Just Cause GO. At least Life Is Strange is an adventure game, and could translate to puzzle elements, and the turn-based movement could work well with the time rewind mechanic
Just Cause as a turn-based puzzler? I can't see it
But Deus Ex GO was my GO holy grail, so glad to see that is likely in development. It was either that or Thief GO as the mobile adaptation I wanted most

Lara Croft GO was revealed at E3 last year (and then came out two months later), so I'd say it's very likely one or all of those will be revealed this month at E3 2016
As for Life Is Strange, there are a lot of action-y/set piece moments in the game, or situations that combine using items and rewinding time, that I could see working in the GO format. Time rewinding alone would change up the formula significantly; imagine how outmaneuvering guards would be in Hitman GO if you rewind guard positions while you hold onto the items that distracted them or you stayed in the same position
Grapple hook could translate nicely to a puzzle format, but that game is so focused on big action and crazy vehicular stunts. I can't imagine it in puzzle form

What's Inside the Box?
It's alright. I like this kind of game. But having to watch ads in order to use hints sucks. I would have rather payed for the game. And it doesn't support iOS multitasking, which has got to be a joke.

Bought and completed it yesterday evening. Really neat. Just bought the two sequels as well.
I remember looking at screenshots of Detective Grimoire a long time ago, but I can't remember why I didn't buy it. Don't like the art style, but I might give it a try.
BTMF however, kind of looks terrible. But it's just 3, so.. maybe.
In terms of graphics, The Trace doesn't look too hot either, but from what I can see in screenshots, the gameplay seems to be right up my alley, so I'm definitely going try it.

There's a $1.99 IAP to support the dev, remove ads, and unlock a skip level option
Oooh. Embarrassing. Should have had a look at the settings menu before complaining. Well, I'm now at level 88, so it doesn't really matter anymore.

I expect a Deus Ex GO at E3 like Badass said. Would make sense with Mankind Divided coming in August, and square does like to make tie-ins for their games.

Pixel Cup Soccer 16 looks pretty cool. Coming out this Thursday.
There's at least one, possibly two more games that could be added to this week's list
More on at least one tomorrow! (Warning: not for everyone)There's at least one, possibly two more games that could be added to this week's list
Referring to that Wonder Boy remake? Could be interesting. DotEmu is on a roll.
