    Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden
    There will still be those who complain that this game is a Zelda Rip-off and that it has no new ideas, but to me Gameloft have created a perfect new adventure based loosely on the ideas of a much loved franchise. Sacred Odyssey: Rise of Ayden is a treasure among a heap of average adventure games, a mix of great characters, fascinating story and gorgeous graphics.

    Bug Princess
    Bug Princess is another top class shoot-em-up from Cave that doesn't disappoint. It might not have quite the same depth in scoring as some of the later coin-ops and there are no extra modes to speak of, but it certainly hits the Bullet Hell spot.

    Street Fighter IV
    Street Fighter IV on iPhone can still be considered a success, and Capcom really do deserve a medal for pulling it off. I thought it couldn't be done, and I'll happily admit I was wrong.

    Shark Dash
    Shark Dash is a bit of a surprise from Gameloft. It has a nice, balanced skill level, bright and colourful graphics and is fun to play, all wrapped in a game that isn't part of the new freemium model. It certainly gives you something to get your teeth into.

    Broken Sword - The Smoking Mirror: Remastered
    Broken Sword 2 will last you hours, having all the playability of a full-priced PC game. It is the kind of game that could convert people who wouldn't look twice at adventure games, and is easily one of my most highly recommended titles on the platform.

    Hot Springs Story
    Hot Springs Resort is another triumph of balance between the hard nosed world of number crunching and cute character management. The beautifully detailed characters and scenery hide a devious game engine that will see you playing long into the night.

    Draw Something
    It is a title best approached as a pastime instead of thought of as a game, and for this reason it is impossible to score. However, if you know at least one other person who owns a device capable of playing this game, and the odds are that you do, then you should join in the fun as soon as you possibly can.

    N.O.V.A. 3 - Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance
    A rather mixed bag. When it works well it's an impressive game that far outdoes any previous FPS Gameloft have put out, but there are too many bugs and issues still around to make it a consistently good experience.

    Cover Orange
    Cover Orange is well built and fun, ensuring that you'll want to continue past the stage where most one-trick physics puzzles bore. Add in the heart melting animations and beautiful pastel graphics and you have a winning combination.

    Angry Birds Space
    There has always been a reason that Angry Birds is THE mobile game, and that is because it does what it does extremely well indeed. My own personal iPhone has a folder for "Essentials" on the first page, and it is in to this very folder that I have put Angry Birds Space.

    Hunters 2
    Even without multiplayer, though, Hunters 2 is still one of the best strategy titles on the App Store and improves on the original game without changing those parts that made the first game so good.

    Cogs
    The beauty of this pricing structure is that I can recommend the basic game to anyone to see if they like it enough to spend more. It could be said that you're paying for a demo, but that would be unfairly cynical on what is a rather outstanding game to begin with.

    Continuity 2: The Continuation
    A great little game which will entertain for some time.

    Robokill - Rescue Titan Prime
    The fun, challenge, and aesthetics are extremely pleasing. There is something that always feels so right about shooters set in space, and this one is no exception.

    Bruce Lee: Dragon Warrior
    A great game and a worthy addition to the growing number of fighters on the iPhone. It shows that 3D fighters are possible and it's a great homage to the Dragon himself that he finally gets a game which celebrates his life.

    Asphalt 7: Heat
    Asphalt 7 Heat is a pretty full package that, while not being a major overhaul of the series, does enough to warrant a purchase by fans. It's certainly one of the best looking games on the App Store and you can't fault it for doing pretty much what it sets out to do; being a fast, no nonsense arcade racer.

    Darkside (2012)
    Darkside has a lot of content and 3 game modes that offer several different ways to play. It's great for a quick dose of asteroid blasting and the mission mode provides a more structured take on the twin stick shooter.

    Shaun the Sheep: Home Sheep Home 2
    Home Sheep Home 2 takes all the parts that were good from the first game and builds on them to create an excellent puzzle game, this time providing a much more rounded package. Even without the star attraction from Aardman Animations the game would be easy to recommend to puzzle fans.

    Collision Effect
    This is a wicked little game that will delight and annoy, and then delight you again. It is definitely one of those games I will keep on my iPod for a good while yet.

    Hunters: Episode One
    It plays well on the iPhone and iPod Touch with a great control system, but run this game on an iPad, particularly on the iPad 2 as we were, and it works perfectly. Hunters: Episode One is a tense, thrilling game that brings the classic turn based strategy genre on to iOS with amazing success.

    Tiny Tower
    Tiny Towers is a microsystem in your pocket. It will take over your waking life as you worry about restocking items and whether your tower needs another foodstall or a car showroom, it may even have you waking in the middle of the night. But it does all this in such a cute way that you'll forgive it every time.

    Order & Chaos Online
    Order & Chaos Online is an impressive and immersive MMO that Gameloft have somehow managed to squeeze on to a tiny iOS device. Its popularity is testament to the game's ability to bring a fully fledged online adventure successfully on to Apple's platform.

    Run Roo Run
    Run Roo Run takes a simple concept and creates a game full of depth, style and character. It's a perfect example of what can be achieved with a bit of imagination and a one touch control system.

    Tiny Troopers 2: Special Ops
    Tiny Troopers 2 may be a case of more of the same, only better, but this is no bad thing when it's based on such a great foundation. Fans of the first game and those new to the series who yern after then classic Cannon Fodder games should set their sights on this one.

    Seal Force
    While Seal Force borrows unashamedly from other games, it earns its own identity by providing a unique mix of gameplay styles coupled with a stylish look and sound that should earn it a place in your collection. Roll on the Seal Force TV show.

    Gangstar: Miami Vindication
    It's not perfect but it sure is fun, which is why, despite some hesitation, the game has scored so highly.

    The Pinball Arcade
    FarSight have done a fantastic job of bringing real pinball to iOS.

    Rogue Planet
    As a package, Rogue Planet is worth every penny of the £2.99 Gameloft are asking for it.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Hero of Sparta II
    The game plays well and there's fun to be had from spraying the enemy's blood across the floor in varying ways, but ultimately Hero of Sparta II feels slightly vacant, as if something was missing from the formula.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Par Out Golf
    Par Out Golf is the perfect answer to creating a golf game with a difference. It manages to mix genres while being easily accessible to everyone and containing enough of a challenge for long term gamers at the same time.
