Every week, hundreds of Android apps and games are submitted to the Play Store. If you’re not paying attention 24/7, it’s easy to miss some of the best stuff. Each week we will highlight five of the best new or overlooked apps and games. You’re sure to find some hidden gems in these recommendations. Go forth and download!
1. Fokusi
Fokusi is an app that aims to help you focus when you really need it. The app uses Screen Pinning in a clever way. You simply set a timer for how long you want to focus, the app is pinned for that period of time, and a “dummy” notification bar blocks notifications. You won’t hear any notification noises or vibrations

4. ∞ Infinity Merge
Infinity Merge is like Threes! and 2048, but instead of combining numbers, you’re combining shapes. The gameplay is a little different as well. Blocks slide from one side to the other. You need to match blocks that have the same number of dots, shape, and color until you reach Infinity

5. Ballium
Ballium is easiest described as “space bowling.” The bowling alley is floating in space, and gravity doesn’t quite work the same as on Earth. The lanes are not always straight and flat. You have to use your finger to curve the bowling ball and hit as many pins as possible.
