[iOS] Barnyard Mahjong 2: Around the Farm is a matching game with a twist: the tiles are on a 3D object. So imagine a Rubik's Cube that's all mixed up and you have to spin it around and around to find matching color squares. Same type game, except with pictures on the tiles. Very cool. While aimed at young kids, I could still see this one challenging adults. Developed by EnsenaSoft.
