Balls vs Jenga
Balls
Balls is a fun 5-games-in-1 type of puzzle game where you can not only enjoy the fun brick-breaking action like in Ballz, but also a range of other fun games like the Lineup game mode which is basically Tetris but with a really innovative twist. There is also a CatchCup mode where you'll need to "level up" the cups by catching as many marbles as you can. The interesting thing about this mode is that you have a set number of marbles and every marble you dropped onto the table will not be restored to you. So, as you play, you'll slowly and literally lose your marbles!The Occupy mode is another game mode that's pretty unique but can be quite challenging to score high in. In this mode, you'll basically be creating your own "bricks" to break via a bubble shooter-styled gameplay, but the trick here is to make sure the ball never touches the bottom line. The "bricks" you make and break will also balloon up if you shoot them towards an area with lots of space and thus, taking up vital space that you'll need to shoot your balls.
In many ways, I personally enjoy playing this game more than Ketchapp's Ballz mainly because it has other equally interesting game modes for me to enjoy. So, if you love puzzle games, Balls is a game you should definitely try.
Jenga
Jenga is the only Jenga-type game on the mobile market and it's not surprising to see why. From creating racing games with realistic motion physics to creating Jenga with accurate, close-to-life gravitational physics and stability, NaturalMotion is possibly the only mobile-specific company that is able to create a realistic digital version of the timeless crowd-favorite game, complete with beautifully rendered environment.The game also has a multiplayer mode that'll see you competing with friends to see who'll topple the tower of blocks first. Scores you earn from playing are also listed on the leaderboard - that is if the scores are high enough - giving you some amount of bragging rights if you happen to rank near or at the top. Not to mention, you can even compare the heights of your Jenga blocks with your friends' while you're still playing a game!
There are, however, some issues with the game, but overall, Jenga is still the only mobile version of the favorite pastime of many and if you suddenly had a craving for such a game, you'll have nohere to turn except to this one... unless you own a physical version of the game, then by all means, invite some friends over and have some fun!
