Sudoku Straights: Where Poker Meets Sudoku by DJAPE for 99¢ . This game is a combination of Sudoku and Poker. The games contains 150 puzzles with thousands of poker straights inside them. I purchased this game and  love it!

The Hardest Game by Nice Games is available for 99¢. This is a puzzle game, which might seem simple on the surface but can become very hard to solve. The goal is to place numbers on the board. You start with a 5 x 5 board and must place numbers from 1 to 25 on it. When you finish a level, the board size increases and so does the amount of numbers you need to place. While the first two levels might seem easy, the rest is quite difficult and requires a lot of strategy.
