2. Lost Lands 9
Lost Lands is the 9th installment of the Lost Lands game series and it is one of the best offline games I have played of late. I haven’t played any of the games of Lost Lands before, but I’m familiar with the genre and have played similar games in the past. The game takes players on a puzzling adventure of the Lost Lands that’s equal parts amusing and challenging. The story begins with an unknown entity prowling the valley and destroying everything in its path. Then a group of friends take the matter into their hands and try to solve the mystery of the unknown villain.
You play as one of the friends to help the affected inhabitants of the Lost Lands and find the mysterious villain. As your adventurous journey progresses, you’ll have to find hidden objects, play mini-games, and solve puzzles to go ahead in the journey. Overall, the story is good, the animations are neat and the puzzles are challenging.
3. Flying Tank
If you are a fan of old-school 2-dimensional shooting games, then you’ll love this game. The story of the game starts with aliens invading the Earth. Your objective Is to destroy their vehicles and weapons by shooting at them. The difficulty increases as you progress through the levels. Also, the variety of the tanks/weapons broadens as you progress in the game. The game mechanics is simple. You have your vehicle/Tank on the left side of your screen, tap the right side of your screen to shoot bullets.
The tank movement is controlled by swiping. Each gesture has a specific function during the gameplay. For instance, swiping down drops bombs, swiping right shoots special bombs, etc. The overall game art, graphics, music, and sound effects are well done. The game is partially free to play. So try a few levels for free and buy the full version if you like it.
4. Secrets of the NutCracker F2P
This is another hidden objects finder plus puzzle and escape game that keeps you engaging and busy. The puzzles are not too easy/tough to solve, unlike other puzzle games that test your patience. The whole story makes the game even better with interesting mini-games and puzzles. The story starts with Marie trying to find her lost childhood friend Fritz. On her journey to find her friend, she has to find clues, solve puzzles, and handle angry mice and living toys.
You play as Marie goes through this adventurous journey trying to find her friend, godfather, and learn the secret of the NutCracker. So, try the game for free for a few levels and then buy the full version if you find it good enough.
5. Zombotron Re-Boot
Zombotron Re-Boot is a remaster of the original Zombotron Flash games series with updated graphics, improved physics, and new rich effects. It’s a classic 2-dimensional walk/jump/punch style game. The game takes place in an abandoned world of Zombotron where you have to fight evil robots, and undead creatures, and find survivors to discover the mystery of the mysterious planet.
You can take the help of a wide range of weapons to destroy various enemies with unique abilities. If you played the original game back in the day, you’ll know how the game has improved in all ways. The overall gameplay is smooth and the graphics are nice. The only complaint from my side is that the positions of the buttons are fixed. It would have been better if we could change them to our comfort.

Roguelike is a 3D shooting game with lovely art where you play as a princess Mononoke who fights with humans and wins for monsters.
