Logic games: puzzles, chess and physics problems

Here the winner isn't whoever taps fastest but whoever spots the solution first. The logic games in the catalog cover a lot of ground: classics like chess and Tetris, physics puzzles where you draw shapes or flip the level, memory trainers, and even stealth games where planning beats dexterity.

For the classics there's Chess Deluxe, where you can open a room and play friends online or take on the Stockfish engine at levels from beginner to grandmaster. Sand Blocks: Clear the Lines reworks Tetris so that pieces crumble into sand, with an Endless mode and a Campaign. Three in a Row: Rings! has you placing rings of different sizes on a 3×3 board and clearing them by colour. Water Flow: Happy Glass hands you a pencil: draw shapes to steer the water across five themed worlds. And in Chicken Escape a clever hen slips past guard dogs by hiding under a box.

Not sure where to begin? Try Save Liza: every situation has at least two ways out, and there are no wrong choices. The collection works for a five-minute brain stretch as well as for settling in with a long campaign.
