Thursday has made its way round again, which means it's time for you, our stylish and attractive readers, to decide which of the five games we've selected below should be awarded this week's game of the week prize.

This week we've got sports, donuts, ravenous mythical creatures, and a game where you actually have to go outside into the real world. And we reckon each and every one of them is worthy of nabbing this week's award.

But it doesn't matter what we think, for once, because this time it's all down to you. Voting couldn't be simpler - all you need to do is leave a comment at the bottom of the article. Or, you can tweet us using the hashtag #148GOW. Or if you're a friend of Zuckerberg, post a comment on our Facebook page.

And don't forget to check back next week, when we'll be revealing which of these games you decided was best. Right then, on with the choices.

Donut County - download for iOS

This one's a puzzle game where you're playing as a hole. You need to get as much stuff into that hole as you possibly can. But there's a lot more going on here than that, and despite how that description might make it sound, Donut County is actually pretty smart.

Why we think you'll like it: Well for one thing it looks lovely, and every inch of the game is dripping with the sort of charm it's impossible to fake. Plus it's always keeping you on your toes, throwing in new ideas to make sure things stay fresh. Last but not least, you're going to be smiling the whole way through Donut County, which is certainly nothing to sniff at.

Golfing Around - download for iOS

Colin Lane is best known for making silly mobile games based around sports. But if you're coming here looking for silliness you're going to be a little disappointed. This is actually a pretty traditional golf simulator, albeit with plenty of mobile twists.

Why we think you'll like it: Golfing Around isn't just a good golf sim, it's a really great one. It's simple to pick up and play, and it lets you make and upload your own levels too. No it won't make you cackle with laughter, but it'll stick around on your homescreen for a good while longer than Lane's other games.

Hungry Dragon - download for iOS

This is a game where you eat things. To begin with, you can't eat some of those things. You're going to need to get bigger. Much bigger. Oh, and you're also a dragon. A kind of adorable dragon who can dress up like a chef.

Why we think you'll like it: Put simply, it's because it's an awful lot of fun. Hungry Dragon doesn't try and change the wheel, but it does add a few spokes of its own to proceedings, like pets and challenges, to ensure that you get as addicted as possible.

Fightlings - download for iOS

Take Pokemon Go and mix it with a deck-building card game. The end result? Something that looks an awful lot like Fightlings. It's midcore, it's going to get you out of the house, and there are plenty of layers waiting to be discovered.

Why we think you'll like it: Some games that take ideas from disparate places can end up being a little muddled. Not so with Fightlings. Its ideas gel together really well, and if you got a bit bored playing Pokemon GO, then the extra meat on this one's bones will likely be a feast for you.

All-Star Troopers - download for iOS

It was a tough decision as to what was going to take the final spot on this week's list, but All-Star Troopers just snuck in at the end. It's sort of like a single player MOBA wrapped up in a tower defense game. And then it's got some other bits thrown in for good measure too.

Why we think you'll like it: Because in the world of lite, midcore MOBAs, it actually does something different. In fact, it does quite a lot of things different. It's fun, it's fast, and it's going to scratch your MOBA itch in just a few minutes.
