Blast Waves
iOS, & Android (Foolish Mortal Studios)
In the top-down tactical battles of Blast Waves, enemies only move when you do. This is similar to Superhot, where enemies only move when you do. Drag a line from your soldier to plan his next move, then tap enemies to shoot.
At first, you only have control over one soldier. If you make it through five battles, which is very unlikely, you can clone them and use them in the much harder command mode, where you lead a squad of five of your best clones.
You can slowly unlock and research new weapons and armor to help you with your increasingly difficult forays. The game takes some getting used to, but if you stick with it, you'll be rewarded with complex stop-motion battles that are challenging and fun.
"The combat is so rewarding you’ll find yourself completely hooked." -PocketGamer
