by

Platform game illi has been named Apple's App of the Week, and as a result, it is available as a free download for the next seven days. illi, which has four stars in the App Store, has only been free once before since it was released in April of 2016.


The game is described as a "one button platform puzzler" that asks players to take control of illi, a fuzzy white horned creature, to travel through a strange world. Illi is able to bend the fabric of the world and defy gravity while traveling through portals to gather up light crystals.

Are we doing this every week for each app?
No, we don't share them all. Just the ones that look like they might be interesting to MacRumors readers. So no kids games, or games with tons of in-app purchases, or apps that get poor reviews. It's free, so why not?

Thanks for the heads up, much appreciated :)

Quick Tip: those who are not interested have the extremely easy option of not reading and not opening the article. Trust me is a very easy and effective way of not reading stories you are not interested in.

Common sense note: Even if some people are not interested there are other who are and appreciate the information.
