Bird Zapper manages to be fun in a way that many similar games aren't, and I think that speaks to the attention to detail present here. Bird Zapper feels slick, and it's truly fun to play-even if it isn't the most original game in the App Store, Bird Zapper excels where it counts.

Foosball HD is a simple but well-made game. It's going to be one of those games I start up anytime I'm showing off my iPad to someone who's never used one. It makes great use of the Retina display graphics and multi-touch.

Road Warriors feels fast and awesome as you flip and shoot your way through insane race tracks. It also does a great job of bringing you back to it by providing a new course every day and loot boxes to upgrade your car with. The track may not always be great, and you might not always have the best luck with loot, but the racing action here more than makes up for it.

LEGO MINDSTORMS Fix the Factory is a great-looking "program the robot" puzzle game, but it's missing a few of the basics.

It's simple to drop into Time Geeks & Friends for a brief time, just to make one's moves and return to the day's activities for a bit longer. Its quirky charm really is quite endearing.

Deft and dexterous digits go for distance in On The Line. Just stay away from the sides!

Not quite SSX for iOS, but close enough.

Pixel Rush proves why one shouldn’t write off games based on descriptions alone. The only way to really know how good a game can be is by playing it.

In the end, Expand It! is a fun (and cute) little distraction of an iOS game. It can get frustrating at times, but it does a pretty good job of merging rainbows, dinosaurs, and physics more often than not.

Loud and outspoken, OPERATION DRACULA will punish and excite you with equal measure.

Hoopa City is a creative city building app allowing kids to build their own landscapes.

Tesla Wars strikes back in this similar but superior sequel.

Gon is a personable action/physics game that tests the limits of players' reflexes.

Chimpact makes me hungry. Mostly for bananas, but also for one more round of play, making it easy to recommend to those who enjoy this type of (one more) iOS monkey business.

Due to the level of difficulty and its minimalist theme, Splice is going to be a bit of an acquired taste. Some will prefer more handholding and more character. For those who love to experiment, however, this is the game to gravitate towards. It's a purist's idea of heaven.
