Nobunaga’s Ambition – Nobunaga’s Ambition is a game set in Japan’s Warring States period, a turbulent age when feudal warlords battled for control of the country. As the ruler of a fief, you choose your own path to conquest: Will you wage war on your neighbors or rely on diplomacy? Use economic sanctions or send ninja assassins? Use all of your ingenuity and resources to unite Japan under your banner.
Cubemen 2 – Create, share and destroy with more than 8,000 user-generated levels. Cubemen 2 is a fast-paced, cross-platform 3D strategy game in which the player controls an army of Cubemen, using them to battle against enemies in a range of modes, including Capture the Flag, Skirmish and Territory. You can even create and share your own levels using the game’s built-in level editor.
Ice Cream Surfer – The evil Broccoli, irritated by the fact that kids hate vegetables and love ice creams, has created an army of vegetables to destroy the flavor galaxy. Only the Ice Cream Surfer with the help of his 4 super tasty friends can prevent that.

Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight – It’s been 25 years since Ken left the glory days of his fighting career. In Street Fighter 2010: The Final Fight, navigate across the galaxy as Ken follows the trail of his friend’s murderer. Jump, climb and fight your way past monstrous enemies as you complete the objective for each stage. Just like in his days in the Street Fighter world, Ken can punch and kick his way through danger, but he can also fire power shots from a distance. Will Ken be able to find justice at the end of his journey?
Tappingo 2 – Tappingo 2 is an awesome puzzle game, in which you create small pictures by solving puzzles. Your goal is to solve each puzzle picture by making all the numbered blocks extend into lines of the correct length. The number on each block indicates exactly how long the line needs to be.
