Angry Gran

Why It’s Listed

Angry Gran is a working Arcade entry, which is a lower bar than it sounds and one a surprising number of pages fail. The publisher's text is 19 words and never names a control scheme, which makes the first minute inside the frame the real tutorial. Nobody needs a hard sell: 3,288 plays and 4.4 out of 5, above the 4.2 the library averages.

How to Play

• 480×320, with the two action buttons sitting just under the player rather than over it.
• Nothing on the page says what to press or where to tap, and that gap is filled by playing rather than reading.
• The embed is the only thing on the page that takes input; nothing around the frame is interactive.

Editor’s Note

We would hand it to someone with five minutes to spare, not to anyone hunting a campaign. Same-shelf alternatives listed here: Ketchme, Blobkill, Red and Green 3. Nothing on the page promises more than that, and we have not tested it beyond the opening minutes.
