Whatever way you decide to do it, come back on Tuesday when we'll be announcing which of these five has earned the right to call itself the game of the week.

Legend of Solgard - download for iOS

King rolls into the midcore sector with a Ragnarok-themed game of matching monsters and taking down dragons. Even if you're not a fan of Candy Crush, there's a lot to like here, and a surprising amount of depth in the hybridisation of RPG and matching.

Why we think you'll like it: Because it does what King does best, but adds a good deal of new twists to proceedings. It looks great, and the extra layers of strategy and tactics ensure that you're going to go deep into this one. Barbearian - download for iOS

You're a bear. You're also a barbarian. And you've been thrown into a contest to decide whether or not the rest of your species survive. To win, all you have to do is wallop everything that moves with an axe. What follows is dense, often frantic, and rarely dull.

Why we think you'll like it: There's a meaty chunk of game here, and if you get into its slightly laborious early rhythm you're going to find a game that blossoms as you push through it. It plays brilliantly on mobile, and while it's expensive, we reckon it's worth it. Bendy in Nightmare Run - download for iOS

Rather than a survival horror game, this is an endless runner. You're sprinting away from giant bosses, throwing cartoon anvils and axes into their faces and trying to make sure their minions don't bite a chunk out of you.

Why we think you'll like it: Not only is this one super-polished and easy to play, it also ratchets up the tension like few other auto-runners can manage. It requires fast reflexes, as well as a little bit of luck. This is edge-of-the-bus-seat gaming done just right. A Way to Slay - download for iOS

A puzzle that's all about distance, and features some of the slickest murder animations we've seen in a long while. You're a lone warrior faced with overwhelming odds. Double tap your opponents to slice them up, but make sure you're not leaving yourself open to a swipe from someone else.

Why we think you'll like it: Ever wondered how those fight scenes in Game of Thrones work? The ones where a hero manages to chop down a whole bunch of his or her enemies in one fell swoop? Well we imagine they happen something like this. Thunderdogs - download for iOS

A dog-fighting arcade game where the planes are piloted by actual dogs. The focus here is on multiplayer, and the short-burst online games are going to give you just enough thrills and spills to make you leap back into your cockpit for more.

Why we think you'll like it: This one smashes so much action into short play times that it's almost difficult not to enjoy it. Throw in some upgrades, new planes to unlock, and the fact that it's rammed fit to breaking with dogs, and you're definitely on to a winner.
