New Indie Games to Try

Indie games might be the purest "please try my app" category there is: months of work, a store page, and then silence unless something catches. The games here are playable now — free, a free demo, or freemium — because a trailer tells you how a game looks, not how it feels to play.

Expect the whole spread: browser games, mobile puzzles, word games in dimensions word games don't usually have, and the occasional thing that quietly eats your evening. Every listing was submitted by its maker and reviewed by a human before going live.

If you made a game and the store algorithm buried it, submit it free. The people browsing this grid try new games for fun, and an honest "the tutorial lost me here" from one of them is worth more than a hundred silent installs.
