Time-waster
Pop A Corn
by Spotcat Studio (Philippines)
Two whack-a-mole games in one week? It might be overkill, but Pop A Corn makes it worth it. Pop A Corn has you hitting corn kernels rather than dwarves, and is easy on the eyes.
This whack-a-mole-style time-waste can be played single-handedly and has just one mode, where you have 60 seconds to pop corn kernels. Hit a purple kernel and you lose time and a life, but hit a special corn and you gaint hat life. The game ends once 60 seconds are up, though you can prolong it by performing hit combos.
Pop A Corn is free on iOS and has zero in-app purchases. Good for killing time, if nothing else.
Duende!
by Hobbi Games (Philipines)
A duende is a small dwarf-like creature from Filipino and Latin American mythology and your job in Duende is to capture as many of them as possible. Duende plays like the arcade favorite whack-a-mole, except in Duende, the moles occasionally whack back. Duende adds a bit of excitement to the genre by adding chain captures, different races, and quests to the classic whack-a-mole formula.
Duende is not going to replace your favorite game ever, but it is a top-quality time-killer with great style and intuitive gameplay. Give Duende a try, you’re going to enjoy it. You can download Duende for Android for free here.
