    Even with the most critical of eyes, Need for Speed: Most Wanted is still easily one of the best racers on the platform to date. You would have to be crazy not to take this hot rod out for a nice long joy ride. EA and Firemonkey have once again re-defined what it means to play racing games on iOS.

    Hungry Shark Evolution might be a very simple idea but it's fun to take down a plethora of fish or scuba divers in one combo, and oddly calming too! It might falter for extended sessions but as a game to dive (pun alert) into, it does the job.

    Hairy Tales certainly has a few elements that make warding off the corruption a bit more taxing than it ought to be, but it's still a very entertaining puzzle game with loads of bushy cuteness. So go ahead; grab a crystal and start running. Just mind the gaps.

    While I think the concept is not as perfectly-executed as I think it could be, Blast Soccer is definitely an interesting take on its sub-genre: and hey, a game that's interesting but far from perfect is better than a game that's mechanically sound but uninteresting.

    I really hope the developers add more levels in the future with different themes and unique objects, because the premise is solid and could be expanded on. The open level allows players to explore around and do what they want which is a nice change from game with specific objectives.

    Surviving enemy onslaughts as pistol-packing monkeys and cats is just an inherently fun idea that Armed Beasts effectively executes on. Plus, it's free, so it's not like there's anything to lose.

    So, while I'm still somewhat conflicted about this game, I still actually enjoyed it quite a bit, though there is a flawed concept here. This is probably best for the kids, though I'm probably going to go kick Finn again. I'll see myself out.

    Anyone looking for an alternative to slow and boring quiz games will want to pick up a copy of Super Smart today. While it has a couple of minor disappointments, it makes up for them through its addictive and crazy game play.

    For fans of Gamevil games or strategy titles, and aren't afraid to eventually spend some money, this may be worth checking out. The average person should probably pass.

    I'd recommend it purely to support such a great game, if nothing else, but such features are quite handy.

    Crossword Dungeon is most definitely an interesting experiment and a very interesting new approach to crosswords, it just doesn't seem like it's been fully fleshed-out. That doesn't mean it's not fun or an entertaining distraction, though.

    The charm factor alone is enough to make the game well worth playing, so solid mechanics and sprawling stages are just an added benefit.

    League of Heroes is a free-to-play hack 'n slash that is interesting for one key reason: an easily-exploitable energy recharge system.

    Actually playing the main two modes, Stay Alive and Pacfish, is a reasonably entertaining proposition.

    While it is another game about launching things at other things, and yes the temptation to spend money will set in – buy Swing Shot PLUS to start off with some extra bananas and coins – but this is otherwise a rather fun take on the physics puzzler.

    I undoubtedly had fun playing Slice the Ice, but the whole ordeal was over much sooner than I would've liked and an extremely large portion of the content is closed off. Although replaying each of the initial 20 levels for a "Perfect" is certainly still an option so long as one can get past the jerkiness.

    It's great to play a Time Management game that does mostly everything right.

    A solid action game that's sure to please most Children of the 80s. It's also goofy and entertaining enough to please plenty of other App Store shoppers. Hard core action gamers might take some issue with the minute lack of responsiveness, though.

    Everything about it has come together in a way that is absolutely flawless. This is an absolute must-have. There is no reason not to download it whatsoever.

    Games like Big Win Football can be both infuriating and intriguing at the same time. The passive gameplay lends itself well to bite size gaming, but those looking for more of a simulation feel need not apply. Micromanagers be warned, this is the kind of title that can stealthily rob away precious hours, with fairly little gain. Downloader beware: mileage may vary.

    It's a neat idea but with clumsy controls, it takes some persistence to truly enjoy.

    Funkin' Arena's multiplayer twists on tower defense are worth checking out but the game itself can't coast along on those alone. Hopefully they'll show up in another, more fully-featured product.

    Simply put, Ninja Box is rough around the edges. If one were to strip away the stylistic art design, what would remain is essentially "hide and go seek," where the player simultaneously engages in exercises of trial and error. Let's just say that it might be best if this assassin remained locked in the dojo.

    There might not be anything obviously wrong with Monument Builders: Eiffel Tower. It offers functional graphics and an appropriate control method but it also lacks any personality or sense of achievement.

    Pocket Climber is a really fun, simple, and entertaining game. It takes a concept that has been done many times before, but executes it very well. The graphics and unique obstacles contribute to the fun game play to make a solid overall game.

    Zynga is well-known for including a lot of in-app purchases in their apps to be able to play. Luckily, Twist Pilot costs just $0.99 without the need to make any additional purchases. The graphics of the game are sharp, the controls are easy and intuitive and the gameplay is simple yet challenging enough to keep players engaged.

    The love put into every sprite and asset oozes from the screen, and also, there's pudding with a monocle.

    I've just been having an absolute blast with Zombies and I can't wait to jump back in for more. An update with some slightly more forgiving hit boxes for the control sticks would certainly be nice, but it's nowhere near a necessity. Grab it. Play it. Love it.

    With no real sense of progression and a quite steep and unfair difficulty curve (no one likes to be killed by a zombie that they couldn't even see due to the isometric nature of the level), Zombie Rollers is far from one of Chillingo's best entries to the App Store.

    Blood of the Zombies won't entrance twitch gamers but for those looking for an interesting storyline and a delightful walk down memory lane, it's a sterling effort and one that very much deserves its asking price.
