Stickman Games
Simple figures with controls that take practice to master.
Stick figures that do a lot
Stick figures look simple, but plenty of good games star them. The Vex series is the big one. Vex 3 and Vex 4 are obstacle courses packed with spikes and moving blades, where you run, slide and wall jump to the end, and Vex 5 carries the series on. Every stickman game here is free online.
Archery is the other big theme. In Stickman Archery you judge angle and power to hit the other stickman before he hits you, and Stickman Archer 4 keeps that duel going. The first shot is often a guess, and the second is where you correct it.
For bigger fights, Stickman Army : Team Battle lets you lead a group of stick soldiers against another team, and Stickman Fighter: Epic Battles is a stick fighting game. Nearly every stick game in this list runs fine on a touchscreen.
