This multiplayer turn-based arena-sports-combat game is goofy and random in both the good way and the bad.

It's fun and stress relieving but it feels limited.

Pixel Rooms 2 preys upon players' strange subconscious urges to solve impossible problems.

Demolition Lander's combination of space travel and destruction is a great idea, but players may find the classic Lunar Lander formula doesn't work flawlessly with side-scrolling action.

Amusing premise aside, Zombie Chickens is about as lifeless as its enemies.

It might be briefly fun but Jelly Splash is an idea that we've all seen a few too many times.

As a platformer CreaVures is at best a tepid success, badly in need of a control makeover. But as a visual and even auditory adventure it's feast for the senses.

Runaway is a classic, old-school adventure experience, for better and for worse.

A disjointed experience. I'd never criticize a game for being too hard, but a confusing game feels unfair, both to the player and the quality of the creepy storyline.

Blind Tennis had the potential to be one of the great, little, high-concept games the App Store excels at creating. It's a shame then that in order to appreciate the new ideas it offers, players will have to be willing to suffer through too many basic, mundane shortcomings.

Just one more mode to try out could have made a huge difference here, purely for the sake of variation, but there's no sign of it here.

Brew Town is a fun and weirdly addictive experience, but after a while its repetitive processes become more tiresome and less exciting.

Levitar 2 is a game that can be very rewarding - it just requires an extreme amount of patience to master, and a controller doesn't hurt.

The moment to moment action of Hero Academy 2 can be pretty enjoyable, but that’s mostly because of the aspects that the game borrows from Hearthstone. Outside of those common elements though, Hero Academy 2 can feel like a bit of a slog, and one only worth sticking with if you want to sink a ton of time (or money) into it.

A freemium build of a premium title, NASCAR Manager is still as lackluster as it was before, failing to capture the excitement of racing.

I'm fascinated and impressed with how Ord. can convey so much information with so little, but this accomplishment is part of what hampers its appeal. Reading and re-reading one-word phrases while making choices--some of which seem totally random--can make Ord. feel like a guessing game that grows old as you stop encountering novel situations.

Dark Star looks pretty and it has some good ideas, but its controls make for a rough flight.

Demonrock: War of Ages mashes together multiple RPG and strategy genres for its gameplay, but it just doesn't quite come together.

Gopogo's core concept is good, but frequent ads and other issues get in the way of the fun.

If players can get past the learning curve though there’s a lot of content here to enjoy. There are even online, offline, and bot multiplayer modes. It’s a shame then that Strategy and Tactics: World War II is so unintuitive because there appears to be a solid little strategy game underneath.

Arcade baseball fans will get a kick out of Big Hit Baseball for a little while, but the game as a whole just doesn't invoke memories of Cracker Jacks at the ball game… it feels like sitting through a bad little league game with pitchers who can't pitch and fielders who can't field.

For folks that are fans of footie on a budget, there is plenty to appreciate in Real Soccer 2013. Unfortunately the flawed control scheme where it matters most, on the field, will likely leave gamers crawling back to EA.

Sometimes realism isn't all it is cracked up to be, especially when it results in game-breaking bugs.

Take My Machete is worth a look, given it costs nothing to play, but I can't see it lasting as more than a mild distraction for many.

Help Gabrielle keep those pesky kids away from her desserts in a playable, but ultimately predictable tower defense game.

It would have been nice to see Game Center be implemented a bit more, such as with the addition of achievements for example. Other than this though, it's a fun little game.

This game is more of a real-time combat game than a card game.

In a world of moody, dark adventure games, Nightmare Land delivers a quirky, enjoyable exploration experience that's decidedly dampened by uneven tone and pacing.
