Hoshi Saga Ringo is another one of those "crack the puzzle to expose the image" experiences. We really should invent a subgenre to cover them, but these games are hard to categorise: some scenes play out like physics puzzles, others make cunning use of perspective, and still others put your reflexes to the test.

Commonly shared attributes do, however, include gallons of whimsy, invention and technical polish. Go on, find the star. If you see any boxes, think outside them.

Rivals for our affections include ClickPLAY!, The X-Spot, Pupzzle and Droppy.
