Get Your Trivia Fix: Trivia Crack

If you use Facebook and have any friends at all, chances are one of them has tried to lure you into the addictive game that is Trivia Crack. The game’s Apple Watch version allows you to answer questions on your wrist as well as spin the wheel.

Unfortunately, games have to be started on your iPhone before you can play the pint-sized version, but it can make keeping up with a fast-playing game much easier.

Choose Your Own Adventure: Lifeline

Lifeline is a choose-your-own-adventure game that was made for the Apple Watch. In the game, you’re chatting with someone who has crash-landed their ship on an alien moon. The game goes on throughout the day, just as if this person really exists, and you’re tasked with giving the person instructions on how to proceed.

It can be a lot of fun, especially if you’re stuck in a desk job and need a casual distraction throughout the day.

For the Puzzle Enthusiast: Rules!

If you like puzzle games, then chances are you’ve already played a ton of Rules!. The game’s iPhone app made it to Apple’s Best of 2014 list, and the game was one of the first to become available for the Apple Watch.

Due to the Apple Watch’s small screen, gameplay is condensed considerably, so what would sometimes be a nine-card game is now just four. But the game can still be a ton of fun to play on your wrist, especially during a few minutes of downtime during your commute or while you’re waiting in line.

Blast Off on Your Apple Watch: Kepler Attack

An arcade game on your wrist? Sure! Inspired by Space Invaders, the Kepler Attack game for Apple Watch has you use the Digital Crown to fly through space to destroy alien invaders from Kepler-452b. You’ll get power-ups like Shield, Rapid Fire, and Smart Bomb to help make your way through the levels.

Quick Puzzle Fix: 2048

This puzzle game is perfect for smaller screens and is super fun to play, even if you’ve just got a few minutes to spare.

If you’ve never heard of 2048, here’s the gist: swipe tiles of the same number into each other to merge them. And don’t worry, no math skills are needed!

The name of the game gives away the goal: merge enough tiles to reach the number 2048. Other difficulty levels are also available, ranging from 256 to 4096. With every new tile number reached, you’ll get a higher score and unlock achievements.

Don’t Let the Vortex Win: Vortigo

Vortigo brings bubble-shooting action to your Apple Watch. Match three or more bubbles of the same color to clear them out before they reach the center of the spiral vortex. There are three game modes and special bubbles like Rainbow and Pause to keep the gameplay fresh and addictive.
