18. Tengami
Many gamers feel that Rare's talents have been wasted with Microsoft. For those people, you should be happy to learn about Tengami, developed by a new indie studio called Nyamyam consisting almost entirely of former Rare employees from both the pre- and post-Microsoft acquisition days. There are the founders Jennifer Schneidereit, who worked on Kinect Sports, and Phil Tossell, whose much larger history includes Diddy Kong Racing and Kameo: Elements of Power. Beyond that pair you've got Ryo Agarie, artist for Perfect Dark Zero and Viva Piñata, as well as the one and only David Wise, composer of Donkey Kong Country.
Considering their background, you'd expect Tengami to be some big sprawling adventure. Instead, it's a much more relaxed journey through a Japanese pop-up book, in which you flip objects the environment around to progress further. Simple? Yes. Laid back? You betcha. It's already available on iOS, but you probably want to wait for the Wii U version, which will give you a large HD picture in addition to the ability to directly flip elements using the GamePad's touchscreen.
