Types of retro games

Choose from 7 retro game types, including platform adventures and classic puzzles.

• Platform adventures: Small heroes cross gaps and dodge traps in pixel worlds or colorful cartoon levels. Time your jumps to land safely without falling or hitting a trap. Try: Apple Knight, Level Devil
• Fighting and shooting games: Arcade-style fights put enemies in your way as you cross a level. In smaller battle areas, they attack from all around you. Fight up close with punches or fire from a distance in shooting games. Try: Dan The Man, Temple of Boom

• Classic puzzles and board games: Falling blocks and bubble puzzles sit alongside card games and mazes. These puzzle games have you fitting blocks into complete rows or choosing which cards to remove next. Try: Tetra Blocks, Royal Card Clash.
• Pixel art and coloring games: Those chunky pixels aren’t just for heroes and monsters! Fill in a picture one colored square at a time. Try: Color Artist, Draw Pixel Art
• Building and management games: Pixel worlds give you room to build a shop or expand a farm. Collect materials to sell, then spend the money on expanding your shop or farm. Try: Blacksmith Tycoon, Bunny Market
