It’s another Wednesday, and while we’re scrambling to get ready for WWDC and E3, the App Store isn’t giving us any kind of reprieve. There’s been quite a few great updates that have already landed today, and now there’s a proper onslaught of games for us to fiddle with tonight.

Kingdom Rush Frontiers
First Impressions: TA Plays ‘Kingdom Rush Frontiers’ – It’s Like ‘Kingdom Rush’ With Some More ‘Kingdom Rush’ Thrown In
After playing Kingdom Rush: Frontiers a bit, it’s clear that it definitely delivers one thing: more Kingdom Rush (Free). In other words, it doesn’t break the mold; it adds to it. The new towers, new heroes, a new world, new enemies, and the addition of hero skill trees enhance an experience that its predecessor laid the groundwork for. It’s a pretty good game almost by default since the first was great to begin with.

Scurvy Scallywags
First Impressions: TA Plays: ‘Scurvy Scallywags’ – Hands-On With Ron Gilbert’s New Puzzle Game
Scurvy Scallywags is an enormous breath of fresh air if you’ve been spending a bunch of time with the current generation of match-3 games. You know, the kind that ask for real money in exchange for power-ups constantly? Yeah, those. Scurvy, quite refreshingly, is a real puzzle game that tasks you with matching like items. It’s not gross. In fact, it is pretty charming. From the art, to the character and sound design, all the way to its power-ups, it’s a pretty inviting game that has cheeriness and style to share. Also, pirates. And skeletons.
