As you already know from the first chapter, a good application icon is one of the significant ways to make a name on an app store. The gesture games we were talking about should have a simple identity, and the main icon has to demonstrate the various forms of gestures involved in the game process. Thus, a gesture symbol can be used as a general composition element.

A background should express the mood and the graphic style of the game; in our case, the most interesting results can be achieved for Buttons and Purr, because these games' scenarios have very vivid graphic styles, which are full of amazing details. The cutest one is of course Purr; character-based icons are always very attractive and compel a lot of attention. Clear gestures, at their turn, have their own advantages because they can look great on minimalistic iOS 7 screens.
