WARNING: This game is hard! If you survive for 2 minutes, you are doing really well.
The creator of Slydris, 2012 iOS Game of the Year*, is back with another elegant and intense puzzle game designed specifically for touch screens. CRUSH sounds simple: Keep the blocks from filling the screen by removing matching colors with a single touch. But the blocks keep coming, and each touch boosts the stack even higher. CRUSH brings you three modes of exciting short-burst puzzle gameplay:
THINK mode: Take a little time and consider what moves to make. Go for massive combos to rack up the best Block score.
REACT mode: Make moves quickly to keep stack low. Survive as long as possible.
CRUSH mode: The ultimate combination of speed and strategy. Go for both large combos and a long survival time.
Choose from 6 recharging powers to use as you please, with each slightly changing the strategy required to achieve maximum scores. The powers also provide a shield against an untimely death, but are destroyed in the process.
CRUSH also lets you select from 3 background color schemes to suit your needs.
CRUSH includes an innovative 4-way UI system and a minimalist art-style inspired by Propellerhead Software (Figure, Reason, Rebirth).

Another excellent puzzle game from Radiangames. This has an attractive presentation, great music, and simple yet challenging mechanics. There are several modes to please all kinds of players, from fast paced action to more relaxed and strategic.

Elegant with a caveat

This is another great puzzle game by this company (Slydris being the other). One caveat is that iCloud and GameCenter (achievements) do not sync. Fix this, and this may well be my favorite puzzle game of all time! Update: Aforementioned bugs have been fixed...Good show!
Above and Beyond!!!

This game is tremendous!!! The challenge it gives to the user causes a puzzle aspect, while being a mild game that does not frustrate you!! The only issue is that the credits in the game are not necessary to be used. When I played the game, I unlocked the challenges necessary for the mode. Maybe add a system where perks could be bought to give an advantage to the gameplay! Great game!
Pretty shallow.
Combat?
I'm pretty sure that this game would get terrible reviews if the art style were different and there was no camera angle and blur. It looks nice. Unfortunately it's all about spamming, as there seems to be no penalty for it. Makes the game kinda rubbish.
Another Great Radiangames Title

Fantastic minimalist presentation, deceptively deep puzzle game (despite what other reviews may say). Better than Slydris! This game ranks up there with the likes of Super Hexagon. Nice work, Radiangames.
Music

Fun game, but it's ridiculously difficult to listen to a podcast while playing the game. Even after muting all the sounds, the game will usually opt for no sound at all and turn off my podcast when I switch back to it. It will occasionally, seemingly randomly, allow me to listen to my personal selections of choice by even then it's only after several minutes of struggling. Otherwise, a great and afflicting game! But I won't play a puzzle game if I can't listen to my own beats with ease.
