Skich started out as a discovery and recommendation app for mobile games and it has traction for that. But with new regulations in effect for the app stores, it’s now creating its own alternative app store.

The app is made for the age of swiping left or right, and it lets you express your interest in games. You can sort, collect, launch and delete games as you wish.
