Otherwise, this is a fairly middling puzzle-platformer with a realm-switching mechanic that doesn’t get as much mileage as you might hope. That’s the nicest thing I can say about it, and it’s the one aspect that really stands out. So what’s unique about this game? Um… well, it appears that you’re playing as a zombie worm? So the stuff you’re eating is of course brains. Guide your increasingly large worm around 120 different levels trying to eat everything up without running into your own tail. You can probably tell from the screenshot, but this is basically a variation on the classic Snake. The combat in this case is married to a roguelite structure, making for a rather fresh package as a whole. It pretty much lifts the system with minor adjustments, and you know what? That’s fine by me. Some games have tried to adopt parts of its combat mechanics to varying degrees of success, and One Step From Eden is the latest.

While far from the only charming point the Mega Man Battle Network series had going for it, the battle system of that series was incredibly unique and extremely enjoyable. A real charmer that is definitely worth a fiver. There’s also a level creator here so you can design your own once you’re finished with the pre-built stages. You’ll need to get to the exit on each stage, and you’ll have to rotate the stage around frequently to find the way forward. Using an isometric perspective similar to games like Captain Toad’s Treasure Tracker and Monument Valley, Mekorama sees you guiding a little robot through 100 stages of somewhat relaxed puzzle-solving and navigation. We reviewed it quite favorably here at TouchArcade back then, and it’s even better now thanks to having twice the number of levels.

I mean, we would need it if it weren’t for Animal Crossing. They’re good for killing time, and maybe that’s something we all need right now.
