    Borderlands Legends struggles to stand on its own two feet.

    Blosics is yet another of those great "just one more level" games; the kind that incite the sort of conditioning that leaves us hopelessly tapping at the screen like lab rats pushing buttons for a food reward.

    There's very little wrong with Blockolicious. Despite a wealth of similar titles, the game is bright and cheerful and, more importantly, entertaining.

    If you just want a bit of fun, it's certainly very much worth the $0.99 asking price. The gameplay is good fun and the upgrades and economy sides of the game add something new to this genre, and it works very well. But, the more competitive players may get a little frustrated by the in-app purchases. It seems a subject that iOS game developers still haven't quite got their heads completely around, yet.

    BIT.TRIP BEAT feels like a divisive game – creative, right brain types will likely appreciate the game for its art and can look past the flaws. Logical, left brain types will struggle with the game's flaws to enjoy the core product. I find myself in the latter crowd, struggling to enjoy a game that is alternately brilliant and frustrating.

    Priced with an in-app $6.99, Redrum: Dead Diary is a bit too expensive for most players' taste, even despite the compelling story.

    The main problem that lies with Righteous Kill is that it just isn't as good as other Hidden Object games, most notably, the Masters of Mystery series. It's all just a little too safe and average.

    Take to the streets and perform quick time events in this port of an 80s laserdisc game.

    One of the rare games, much less one of this breadth, that I have completed. No challenge is overly daunting, but most do require at least some minimal thought. The game should make lovers of time management strategy games tap happily for hours.

    While the omnipresent theme song may get a bit grating and it sadly lacks the multiplayer modes of the original Xbox version, Rocket Riot still serves up plenty of good, mindless, destructive fun and bizarre quirky charm. Warm up those jet-butts and check it out.

    Roll In The Hole may not usurp Chillingo's other top puzzlers, but it's a nice return to their roots that is well worth picking up.

    That level of ingenuity ensures that Rope Rescue HD is well worth playing. It's an interesting title that's enjoyable to play for gamers of all age and skill levels. What more could anyone want?

    5th Cell have been known for their inventive ideas on handheld systems for a while now, and with this fun micro-platformer and great idea for adding extra content, their legacy continues. Fans of endless runners looking for something new and willing to experiment with a game with set levels will definitely want to check this out.

    Running Wild HD is entertaining enough to warrant a play through, but it doesn't offer much of an incentive to return to it after beating the initial 50 stages.

    There's nothing crucially wrong with Secret Journeys: Cities of the World HD exactly, it's just all too uninteresting to really grab players away from the likes of Big Fish Games' selection.

    That's some of the problem with Shards of Time. It's a little too easy, even for a Hidden Object game. It's also too predictable and safe, offering precious little that hasn't been done before. At its current introductory price, it's decent enough value for fans of the genre but anything higher and it's a tough one to recommend. It's a little too average for comfort.

    Shiver: Vanishing Hitchhiker isn't going to be a game that taxes old hands at the adventure gaming genre, but it is a decent example of what publisher Big Fish Games can offer. It'll only take around 3-4 hours to complete but it's a fun experience with the option of two difficulty levels, affecting play.

    The puzzles might not have any guidance, but are at least simple enough to figure out with a focus on jigsaws and matching up games. They won't really excite though. Throw in the weak and dated graphics, and the very short game length and Sinister City: Vampire Adventure isn't one of G5′s best titles. There's always a better Hidden Object game to play than this unless you're a true vampire obsessive.

    Angry Birds is still a fun enough game that Snappy Dragons' blatant use of its concept, even down to the way certain menu buttons look, doesn't make it a bad game. It just makes it a redundant one. Most would agree, though, that dragons are at least cooler than birds.

    There are maybe two little problems that could make the gameplay better if they were fixed. The employee doesn't bounce consistently. It's sort of hit or miss; he either bounces at his max power or does a tiny bounce. Also, the lines disappear quickly.

    The Tiny Bang Story HD is a charming, engaging puzzle game that is as good to play as it is to look at. Once it's done there is very little reason to return, but the initial play through is a most enjoyable experience.

    It's all quite fine and pleasant enough but I struggled to really get involved in the storyline of The Magician's Handbook II: Blacklore.

    While incredibly similar to a favorite of mine, Tentacle Wars HD simply wasn't quite as fun. I enjoyed the first set of levels, but, after a while, I just got bored.

    Having played it on both iPhone and iPad, the game never falters to draw me in and understandably so. Can I go back to playing it now? Good.

    The Lighthouse Mystery isn't the longest of games, lasting around 3-4 hours, but it's a fun package of puzzles and object hunting.

    At least Strange Cases: The Tarot Card Mystery lasts for a while and because of its low impact one can easily play it while doing various other things. However, as a game meant to hold one's attention by itself it comes up a little short. There is a reason why games like these are meant for magazines typically found in the dentist office.

    Not the prettiest of racing games but a fun way of completing some ridiculous stunts.

    As an introduction to the strategy genre, however, Totem Tribe Gold does the job well. Fans of Civilization will be underwhelmed by the relative ease in which things can be completed but those casual gamers in need of a new genre will enjoy it.

    If anything, Tweens HD might be a little too easy. However, annihilating its stages as quickly as possible is empowering to a degree not too often felt in puzzle games. Anyone looking for a more caffeinated brain teaser should check it out.

    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.
