So many apps are released every week across the board, it can be hard to keep up with all of them. To help provide a little guide, here’s our picks for some of the best newly released games. Keep a close eye on IGM Mobile for the latest on these and more upcoming releases every week.

The Voxel Agents continue their domination of the world … I mean, the puzzle genre, as their well received iOS game Puzzle Retreat has made a welcome jump to Androiddevices. If you haven’t played it yet or don’t own an iOS system, believe us when we say it’s well worth your time.

We previewed Penumbear ( iOS) by Taco Graveyard just the other day, and now you can see what it’s all about. This platform and puzzle hybrid has you problem solving using light and darkness, all the while controlling a little bear on a mission.

Gravity Duck ( iOS) comes to us from the team behind League of Evil and Burrito Bison among many others, Ravenous Games, which has you controlling a duck who can flip gravity to his advantage. Sure, gravity defying games aren’t new, but a gravity defying duck? Can’t say I’ve heard that before.

For something you’ve not heard before but definitely should there’s Red Rusher ( iOS), a revenge story by Araso Pandan. This is a rather stylish mix of black and white comic book art mixed with music rhythm controls and 1st person, sword based combat.

Indonesian team Agate Studio have teamed with Chillingo to release Up In Flames ( iOS), which tells the story of a young dragon who must burn down a number of fortresses in order to save his friends. Think Angry Birds, but with fire.

Finally there’s Cognition: Episode 1 ( iOS) by Phoenix Online Studios , the first of four ongoing chapters. You play a young FBI agent who gains the power of pre-cognition, in other words when she touches a particular item she sees its past (where it came from, what it was used for, etc). Under ordinary conditions it may sound like a boring super power, but not to someone who’s out to catch a serial killer.
