Grimm is about as pretty as a platformer can get, but it's lacking a bit in the excitement department.

Minotaur Rescue is a solid little inertial shooter with plenty of TLC behind it. It can be quite chaotic, but the simple controls and offbeat elements in play make it fun and memorable, and the universal app support with expanded single-device multiplayer options is definitely a plus for iPad owners.

If you like Match-3 games and are looking for a fun twist, or you just love shapes so much that you dream of octagons, GeoSpin is the game for you. It doesn't hold me captive for quite as long as some of the other matching puzzle games, but its frantic, skill dependent nature will definitely appeal to some.

If you need a quick puzzle fix that is great for the lulls in your day, this fits the bill.

You'll find an amazing experience that will make you thirsty for more. A detailed plot, riveting dialogue, and superior puzzles make 1112 Episode 2 constant entertainment from beginning to end.

It's nothing extraordinarily new, and if you're sick to death of match-3's or already have one, this game isn't for you. If, however, you're a fan of the genre and need one for your iPhone or iPad, Babo Crash is a good choice.

There are some things that I would like to see added on in the future, such as multiplayer and more bonuses, but the game is quite good as-is.

A great, yet flawed, addition to the farming style games available on the market. If you find that games such as Farmville, Animal Crossing, and Harvest Moon are your cup of tea, then Astro Ranch is a definite purchase.

Assault Commando is an alright shooter, just know that there are better (and cheaper) titles in the App Store.

Amateur Surgeon 2 is one of the best experiences that you will have in the App Store. It's full of personality, has great graphics, and uses the touch screen to perfection.

On a device where solid gameplay is king and dialog is an afterthought, it is refreshing to see something that epitomizes the full package.

Great graphics, strong platforming mechanics and a mostly flawed (though sometimes smooth) combat system make Shadow Guardian a tough game to rate.

There is no question that racing fans will get a kick out of Asphalt 6, but fans of arcade racers will love it just a bit more. The graphics are solid, the sound is good, the driving mechanics are exciting (maybe a bit too forgiving for racing sim fans), and the game is just plain fun.

If frantic two finger tapping with RPG elements and nuclear bombs sounds good to you (sounds great to me!), Neo Defender 2 really is a must buy.

Though Dangerous Hunts 2011 scores a bullseye on delivering a more robust, and even console-life campaign experience, piss-poor presentation and an awkward control scheme seem to veer this shot radically off target.

Dungeon Defenders just reeks of an idea that wasn't fully thought through. It is as if someone got the idea to make a hack 'n slash and tower defense hybrid, but never considered if it would actually work.

SimCity Deluxe is finally the SimCity game that people were waiting for on the iPhone. If you like SimCity, you really should pick this one up.

Hand of Greed is the classic tale of a great idea that doesn't really pan out as well as I would've hoped.

One thing is for sure, Omium is a telling experiment in shoot-em-up games.

If you are looking for a Tap Tap Revolution-like experience and are tired of playing the same old corporate stuff, give Tapic a try. It's only 99 cents, and if you like how it plays, it has as much replayability as you have music.

The graphics are of superior quality, and the game play is straight forward.

Tiki Totems 2 expands on an already solid formula to offer an incredibly fun and thorough experience.

In the end, Scrabble/Words With Friends fans who are looking for something a bit different will really love the variety of the Abble Dabble game boards, but traditionalists would do better to stay still.

Pengi promises over 100,000 distinct puzzles and vows that no two puzzles are the same which is certainly great value for money. So while Pengi might not be an instant buy, you really should give it a shot. It's deceptively brilliant and offers a heck of a lot of longevity.

It's all quite run of the mill with Mister Miguel really.

Doodle Invasion is the kind of line drawing game you'll drop into when you need something to entertain you on your commute, but it is a little shallow.

Tiki Towers 2 is the full package for the physics puzzle fan. It's charming to look at and offers an enjoyable challenge while mixing it up every now and then to ensure that the game always feels fresh. Sure it might be liberally borrowing some World of Goo elements but it's borrowing from one of the greats which is no bad thing at all.

Even in short bursts, Pirate's Treasure gets boring quickly, and that's just not a good thing. Unfortunately, this is one treasure that should have just stayed buried.
