TouchArcade Rating:

It’s another Wednesday already, with another list of new iOS games releasing all across the globe. It’s not exactly a massive list this week, but as always there’s an interesting selection of stuff to choose from. Also, there’s several titles that we know of that are waiting to launch until Friday, which is Valentine’s Day, so expect another one of these release posts later in the week.

Update: Well, Card Wars – Adventure Time doesn’t seem to be in the US App Store, so it’s possible it’s just a soft-launch for now. Bummer. We’ll let you know if and when it pops up.

A Darker Shade of Red

A Darker Shade of Red is a fully voiced, jazzy noir point-and-click adventure game, filled to the brim with dark humor and shady characters.

World of Gibbets

iTunes Description

Take a deep breath, focus..then SHOOT! Oh dang! You missed and just killed a stranger 😮 ‘World of Gibbets’ invites you to a gruesome place where people are just moments away from..uhm..becoming angels. They hang on gibbets! Take your bow and arrows, shoot the rope and become a hero! Unfortunately, the game designers are evil! They added many traps and vicious tricks to each level so the chances are high that you’ll end up in a bloody mess. But really, we don’t want that to happen. Better train hard!
