1 Brian Eno: Reflection

£30 / IOS, tvos It’s quite spendy, but this latest collaborat­ion between Eno and Peter Chilvers is like having brainy Brian live-remixing his latest album from inside your device. And he doesn’t even need feeding.

4 Sensual Sax

£3.99 / IOS There can’t be many apps with a massive ‘sex’ wheel – at least not that Apple would approve. But this virtual instrument is all about the sax: spin the wheel to make it look and sound smokier and sexier.

7 Hitman GO

£1.49 / tvos With its weirdly adorable take on assassinat­ion, turn-based stealth puzzler Hitman GO was perfect on mobile. Turns out it’s a hit (oho!) on Apple TV too. The superb Lara Croft GO has also been ported.

2 Pigment

£free (IAPS) / IOS, Android Colouring-in is good for stress but bad for grinding paint into the carpet. Pigment is the best digital take around – unlike rubbish tapto-fill pretenders, this one feels like the real thing, just without mess.

5 Galaxy on Fire 3

£free (IAPS) / IOS Although not actually on fire, the galaxy’s again being heated up by everyone shooting at each other. More linear and less Elite-style ‘bigness of space’, this third entry is ideal for budding Han Solos.

8 Oceanhorn

£4.49 / IOS £4.99 / Android The islands of the Uncharted Seas whiff of Zelda, but it’s great to see this adventure finally show up on Android. You have hours here of duffing up aggressive wildlife, pilfering bling and getting questy.

3 The Happiness Planner

£2.29/month / IOS Can you really plan for happiness? Probably not, but this minimal freebie to-do manager wants to help you try, through reflection and focusing on what matters.

6 Atomic Pinball

£2 per table / IOS, Android This gorgeous ball-spanger finally arrives on Android. You can choose between ‘crazed Mexican wrestling’ and ‘huge stompy robot’ themes, both tables offering plenty of noisy, high-octane action.

9 Pokémon GO

£free (IAPS) / watchos Apple made a big deal last year about Pokémon GO coming to Apple Watch, and it’s now here… sort of. The wrist-based bit is just alerts and monitoring – sadly, you can’t flick your arm to hurl balls.
