#444 Project Neon by FULLSET 10/13/2026 “Project Neon has it all — maniacal gameplay, great pixel art, an authentic soundtrack, and precise one-thumb controls. Unfortunately, this great shmup is over a little too quickly.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/444

#443 Perchang World by @perchangben.bsky.social 09/23/2026 "Lengthy story mode, (mostly) funny narrative, some new mechanics, but first and foremost, the same hilarious gameplay as in the original make Perchang World one of Arcade’s best exclusives." ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/443

#442 Shapecraft by Kamil Kucma 09/01/2026 "Relaxing, always adding new layers, but never getting too hard or boring. Shapecraft doesn’t redefine the genre, but delivers polished puzzling satisfaction." ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/442

#441 Ultrapool: Pool Roguelite by @offbrand.games @icedropgames.bsky.social 08/24/2026 "Pool billiards, roguelike, portrait mode. Ultrapool racks them all up, and it’s ultra… Ultragood!" ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/441

#440 Ghost’n Brothers by Emmanuel Roux 08/19/2026 "Ghost’n Brothers mixes up the sliding puzzle genre by adding two characters who help each other, but I feel like this idea could have been taken much further. As it stands, it’s a solid game, but not a great one." ★★★ onlypremium.games#/440

#439 Club Soko by @miracletea.bsky.social 08/18/2026 "GOTY in August? It sure seems like it! Club Soko is a brilliant puzzle game. Don’t read about it, don’t watch any videos — just do yourself a favor and try it. You won’t regret it!" ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/439

#438 Cascadou by @machineboy.bsky.social 07/23/2026 "Cascodou is a splendid take on deckbuilding poker roguelikes, packed with clever ideas that set it apart from the rest. But it can feel a bit too complex." ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/438

#437 Scriver: A Word Game by Justin Nguyen 07/17/2026 "Deckbuilding roguelikes aren’t your thing? How about a word-building roguelike set in an art gallery? Sounds weird, but fun? It sure is—but mostly the latter." ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/437

#436 Clay Jam Classic by @clayjam.bsky.social 07/17/2026 “It was a good game. I was really happy when I unlocked new monsters.” — Leonard, my 6-year-old son ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/436

#435 Kaamos by @pepperboxstudios.bsky.social 06/22/2026 "For me, Kaamos is to the roguelike genre what Bleak Sword was to the soulslike — a mobile masterpiece." ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/435

Hello @pepperboxstudios.bsky.social. I sent you an email last week. I did not get a reply, yet. Matbe it ended up in your spam… Thanks!

#434 Luck be a Landlord by @trampolinetales.com 06/03/2026 "Greatness be a game. Awareness be a mindset. Addiction be a game, too." ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/434

#433 Pokermancer by Adam Bray 06/01/2026 "Tired of playing a certain roguelike joker game in portrait mode? Pokermancer is that game and more — perfect for mobile play." ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/433

#432 RogueSlide by @rubichron-games.bsky.social & @brin.town 05/27/2026 “It’s been a while since I’ve felt such a strong “one-more-run” urge on mobile. RogueSlide borrows pieces from great games and fuses them into something seriously addictive. A GOTY contender.” ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/432

#431 Perchang by @perchangben.bsky.social 05/12/2026 “I'm a decade late to the party, but I don't mind. Perchang is a cult-classic mobile physics puzzler that's still a blast all these years later.” ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/431

#430 Bacon in Zane by @kamibox-ph.bsky.social 05/04/2026 “I didn’t play the original bacon game, but that didn’t stop me from enjoying this one. It’s like a plum—yummy, and it goes down (and out) quickly and effortlessly.” ★★★ onlypremium.games#/430

#429 Golf Piko by Vikas Pawar 04/28/2026 “Golf Piko is a little buggy (I’m looking at you, levels 83 and 85), but I have a soft spot for sports-inspired puzzle games. That, along with its nice presentation, kept me coming back until I completed all holes under par.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/429

#428 lumen. by Lykke Studios 04/12/2026 “I’ve been playing lumen. on and off since its original Arcade release, and I’m thankful it’s back so I could finally finish it. But that also shows its pros and cons — it’s a superb puzzle game with perhaps too many levels.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/428

#427 No.9 by @rainbowtraingames.bsky.social 04/06/2026 “No.9 follows in the footsteps of Maciej’s clever puzzle games. It’s short, distinct from the others, and this time features an interesting pattern-recognition mechanic.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games#/427

#426 Outhold by @joelbesada.bsky.social 03/35/2026 “Outhold is an excellent tower defense game that makes you wonder why it wasn't released on mobile first. It fits perfectly in your pocket and brings back memories of the golden age of tower defense games.” ★★★★★ onlypremium.games#/426

#425 Eggggg by @hypergames.no 03/08/2026 “Nothing disgusting here! If you like level-based auto-runners, just look past Eggggg's theme and enjoy this classic. It does not feel queasy even almost a decade after its debut.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games

#424 Spilled! by @soundgames.bsky.social 02/22/2026 “Cozy but addictive. Spilled isn’t much of a challenge difficulty-wise, but I couldn’t stop playing until every area was 100% clean.” ★★★★★ onlypremium.games

#423 SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit 2 by @oldskullgames.bsky.social 02/15/2026 “SB’s reign as the king of auto-runners didn’t last long. Not because the sequel isn’t an enjoyable platformer, nor because it’s a little buggy, but simply because he isn’t running auto this time.” ★★★ onlypremium.games

#422 Golf Club: Nostalgia by @demagogstudio.bsky.social 01/12/2026 "A golfing game in space? It’s so much more! A unique experience with excellent production values, a great soundtrack, and a compelling story. If you slept on this like I did, go fix that now!” ★★★★★ onlypremium.games

2025 GOTY blog post is up. Featuring games from @draknek.bsky.social and @hyperluminalgames.com: onlypremium.games/blog.html

#421 SpongeBob: Patty Pursuit by @oldskullgames.bsky.social 12/24/2025 "After a certain limbless character vanished from the App Store, SpongeBob steps in as the new king of level-based auto-runners.” ★★★★ onlypremium.games

#420 Pine Hearts by @wearesecretmode.com @hyperluminalgames.com 11/13/2025 "With its gorgeous audiovisual presentation, wonderful soundtrack, heartwarming story, and excellent port, Pine Hearts is a serious contender for my mobile game of the year." ★★★★★ onlypremium.games

#419 Is This Sean Taken? by @potipoti.studio 11/6/2025 "I was excited to learn that it was coming out on PC and mobile simultaneously, But, as good as its main idea sounds, it’s a boring puzzle game that could have been partially saved by being a more mobile-friendly port." ⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#418 Spooky Express by @draknek.bsky.social 11/4/2025 "I’ve probably never played a puzzle game before where completing every single level makes you feel this smart. Get on the spooky hype train and grab it—but don’t play it while waiting for a train, or you’ll miss it." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#417 Zerko by @rainbowtraingames.bsky.social 11/02/2025 "Zerko is another fine addition in Maciej's collection. Although breezing through its 50 levels doesn't take long, I appreciate that the author respects our time by not adding any filler content." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#416 Monster Train by @bigfangames.com 10/15/2025 "Monster Train is not your typical deck-builder, but that doesn't mean it's not great. It is—but I could only fully enjoy it on my tablet, which negatively impacted the amount of time I spent with it." ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#415 Spitkiss by @dearvillagers.com 09/24/2025 “Quirky and fun, this flinging platformer may not be the best of its kind, but Spitkiss still deserves your attention many years after its release.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#414 Roundguard by @wonderbellygames.bsky.social 09/15/2025 “Relaxing, deep, precise, and fun, but also a little puzzling and full of both pegs and charm. Roundguard is a true all-rounder.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#413 Merge Maestro by @studiostingless.bsky.social 09/13/2025 “A clever merging twist keeps Merge Maestro fresh and fun. But other than increased difficulty, there wasn’t much more for me to discover after beating the final boss.” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#412 The Exit 8 by @kotakecreate.bsky.social 09/08/2025 “I haven’t played anything quite |ike The Exit 8 on mobile yet, but if you spotted an anomaly in this text, you’re definitely going to enjoy this game!” ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ onlypremium.games

#411 - A Little to the Left by @maxinfernogames.bsky.social - 08/28/2025 - A whimsical, well-ported puzzle game about tidying up and discovering who is behind all the mess. If you like things clean and organized like I do, you can’t go wrong with this game. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#410 - Overwords by Maciej Targoni - 08/23/2025 - As much as I like Maciej’s previous games, his latest one feels a bit odd. I enjoyed the fresh mechanics and the presentation, but not so much having to play the same words over and over again. - **** - onlypremium.games

#409 - Lost in Play by Happy Juice Games - 08/17/2025 - Lost in Play is a charming point-and-click adventure and a must-play for genre fans. It’s held back only by a clunky save system that forced me to replay some parts. - **** - onlypremium.games

#408 - Nightgate by @semidome.bsky.social - 08/12/2025 - If you’ve been sleeping on Nightgate for the past eight years like me, do yourself a favor and play it right now. It’s a mobile sci-fi masterpiece. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#407 - Smash Puck by @semidome.bsky.social - 07/28/2025 - It’s an awesome mix of pool, air hockey, and puzzles — a hidden gem that, luckily, didn’t get lost over time and is still super fun to play almost seven years after its original release. - **** - onlypremium.games

#406 - Rytmos by @floppyclub.bsky.social - 07/10/2025 - Rytmos is a simple but fun puzzle game that does not reinvent the genre. Instead, it adds an additional layer of musical education and playfulness. - *** - onlypremium.games

#405 - Sokobond Express by @draknek.bsky.social - 06/29/2025 - The apple did not fall far from the tree. Sokobond Express does not reach the heights of its ancestors, but it’s a solid line-drawing puzzle game nevertheless. - **** - onlypremium.games

#404 - A Monster’s Expedition by @draknek.bsky.social - 06/29/2025 - What made this charming puzzle game truly shine for me was that I could either hop in to solve an island or two or explore the world for hours — a perfect fit for mobile. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#403 - Sokobond by @draknek.bsky.social - 06/19/2025 - Did you know that if you combine great design, minimalism, challenge, and chemistry, you get one of the best puzzle games on mobile? Now you know. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#402 - Slay the Spire by @megacrit.com - 06/17/2025 - The rogue-like deck-builder that started it all is tough, but very few games in my list gave that amount of satisfaction when seeing the credits roll. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#401 - Dubio by @ajkolenc.bsky.social and @richardboeser.bsky.social - 05/25/2025 - This is ten percent luck, twenty percent skill, fifteen percent concentrated power of will. Five percent pleasure, fifty percent pain and a hundred percent reason to remember the game. - ***** - onlypremium.games

#399 - Boom Pilot by Oddrok Oy - 04/22/2025 - It does not quite live up to Power Hover, but it’s still a solid short shmup. - *** - onlypremium.games
