Your goal is to escape a mysterious island by moving treasure chests to the goal on each puzzle board. Certain kinds of blocks will block your progress, though, like magnetic stones or spring stones.

The airport is very busy, and it’s your job as air traffic controller to get everything in order. Quickly guide large numbers of airplanes to their landing zones without letting them collide with other planes.

I’m intrigued by the games they choose to turn into 3D Classics; they’re games I’ve heard of before, but nothing I had considered top tier.
