I would suggest you look at Kairosoft's games. They're amazingly fun and addictive. They're also on sale right now for 50% off (except Game Dev Story, but it was a free app of the day recently). I picked every single one of them up after trying Game Dev Story free and loving it, and then buying Dungeon Village with my coins and loving it too. Liked them so much I actually bought coins (to get the discount) to finish buying them all. There's free trials of them on Google Play if you want to try them out. But be quick, the sale ends either today or tomorrow I believe.

I just edited my post above to add a few additional details about the $5 promo credit, including the Terms and Conditions. Of note is that the apps must be purchased using the latest version of the Amazon Appstore app on an Android phone or tablet...NOT Kindle Fire, Kindle Fire HD, or Kindle Fire HDX tablets. Initially, I was hoping to use coins plus the $5 credit toward a single app purchase, but I guess that's not possible.
Heh, I wiped out all my free ones buying those Kairosoft games. Fourteen of them even at half price added up fast.

One thing I want to add about this is there's some problems with the latest version of Amazon's AppStore app. First off, if you have a lot of apps, which most of us who grab many of the free apps of the day will, it takes forever to refresh the full list, even on fast wifi. I'm talking several minutes, on a 1st gen Nexus 7 with 220+ apps. I can literally go make a sandwich and come back and it'll just about be done refreshing. I figure by next year (if they don't fix this issue), it'll be taking so long I could eat the sandwich too before it finishes. (And it didn't take this long on the old version of the app, so it's not the Nexus.)

Second thing is when I upgraded to the latest app design it renamed my device (looks like it deregistered it and re-registered it on me) and will not let me rename it. I actually had to call support about the issue, and ended up talking to a supervisor. They had me try everything, and it still wouldn't let me rename it, or let them either. She had to file a bug report with the developers and warned me it'd probably be a while before I got a resolution to the issue. Still haven't gotten one, and still can't rename it. There's been at least one update since then too, but it's till not fixed. So if you have multiple devices and need to rename them to keep track of what is what, I suggest you only upgrade one device, or backup the APK and downgrade after getting your credit.
