Zack is a new pirate on a quest to become the greatest pirate ever. In this puzzle adventure game he and his magical monkey sidekick search for treasure as they help the skeleton of the legendary pirate Barbaros. Zack & Wiki: Quest for Barbaros' Treasure is presented as a series of stages where the player directs Zack to perform a number of actions to let him collect the treasure. The player must deduce what actions will have the desired effect without triggering traps or attracting the attention of the enemies. Using most of the tools causes the game to switch to a first-person point of view, and the player is expected to hold and manipulate the Wii remote as if it were the item on the screen.

Lunch Break is an retro arcade-style game. The player’s character, Chris, is trying to eat his picnic, but various critters and hazards are out to ruin it. There are 4 onscreen buttons to help Chris avoid or fend off pests; kick, swat, duck, and switch sides of the bench. Chris will lose enjoyment for each time his lunch is interrupted, and if his enjoyment runs out completely then his lunch break is ruined and it’s game over. Each of the game’s levels have a time limit; if the timer reaches zero before Chris’s enjoyment does, then the game advances to the next level and Chris’s enjoyment is replenished. There are many different levels which gradually get more difficult and feature different hazards. Every forth level is a bonus round where you must make Chris frantically shovel food into his mouth while being careful to not accidentally eat a pigeon. Like the retro games which inspired it; the game is about score chasing and not about completion; it continues until the player loses. There is an online leaderboard for players to share and compare their high scores.
