A limited number of extra lives would have definitely made this iPhone app last much longer and ensure that players got a little more enjoyment out of the title.

More powerups, more enemies, more environments besides just a change of seasons, and some RPG elements would really push Forest Frenzy into a must have.

Overall, the concept of Cut the Buttons is a good one. It's a unique and fun game, but it isn't always easy to play.

Overall, it's actually a very decent hidden-object game, and certainly worth a look for the free content, but that $6.99 price tag for the full game makes my inner cheapskate cringe. It's nice, but not that nice.

Eternal Legacy reaches for the stars and, while coming close, is hampered by the difficulty, sound and script. If Gameloft can improve upon these factors for a sequel on the iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch , they will have a definite hit on their hands.

It's almost possible to execute a hands-off completion of a level, but the app will always find a way to surprise you and cause you to react.

At around 1,000 questions, this game won't keep you occupied forever, but for 99 cents through the holiday weekend, this is one app any trivia or game show lover shouldn't ignore.

Pixel Ranger tries to offer a twist on a standard shooter, but while it does work, the chaotic controls greatly hinder it. Though it only has a few problems, these problems prevent it from being a classic.

Dude perfect takes basketball to new extremes. Try making a bounce shot over a roof off a ladder and into a moving basket.

An original RPG game that has a ton of potential, and worth checking out. Hopefully the developers continue to release updates and improvements to the game. There is talk of them also creating an online version of the game which should be interesting.

If you enjoy iOS games with a simple, repetitive strategy that have a nice difficulty curve, smooth controls, and excellent graphical and auditory ambiance, then Mech Guardian is definitely worth downloading.

You get all the thrills of building up your kingdom, taking down smaller ones, and defending yourself against outraged rivals. However, in the later stages it is going to be a little tough to play unless you're willing to dish out some in-app purchase dough.

It is a very neat idea and a super entertaining game. However, it gets old quickly.

DynaStunts has excellent graphics and audio, but little value.

The frantic pace might just be perfect for others, but for me personally, I just didn't like the pace or gameplay controls.

Great little word puzzler to help you improve your concentration and your mastery of the English language.

The trick is, your first few attempts each time give better results, since as you get tired, your performance drops. As a results the game creates some descent replay ability.

The application is best played only in short bursts. This will enable you to enjoy Grooh every time you play, instead of being dragged down by the repetitive feeling that marathon plays would force upon you.

At first Save the Furries! is very fun, but it can get very difficult later on, a little too difficult to really be justified. However, if you like challenges you will like this. The graphics, controls and audio are all very good and fit the world perfectly, so at least you won't have to worry about faulty controls messing you up. The 4 dollar price tag could turn a lot of potential casual iOS gamers away as well.

The arcade game has more variety and you can play as Marge, Bart, and Lisa, in addition to Homer.

Battle music is not all that catchy, but the music played on the world map may get stuck in your head due to its royal and heroic nature.

Overall, Gun Bros is a fun game despite some repetitiveness and expensive in-app purchases.

The concept is fairly original and the controls are simple to use.

Overall, I think Lightning Fighter is a nice take on a classic series but it left me wanting more.

Ultimately, it's just Boggle, so it probably won't leave you writhing on the floor in ecstasy, but for word game lovers, it's a worthwhile buy.

The quirky concept and the dialogue in the game is amusing, making the game entertaining despite the little issues.

Overall, although Zombie Area! is fun for gore lovers and can be for spurts at a time. It has some work to do before it can set itself apart from other zombie titles in a the competitive App Store market.

A fun, if fairly basic game.

The price is decent, but there aren't a lot of added bonuses or cookies. However, it does support open feint, so scores are posted which gives it a more competitive feel.

Just another casual matching game, so it's not going to change anyone's life, but as matching games go, this is a very, very nice one. It's polished, professional, and dripping with fishy charm, which is about all you could ask for in a simple game like this one.

The flaw with Kaptain Brawe is that some of the puzzles seem arbitrary and purposefully annoying.

If you want to play a fun soccer game, then Real Soccer 2012 can definitely give you that experience. The controls are good, and the graphic are above average, plus the game is free to download and works on both iPad and iPhone.

Sad Princess is an interesting game but might be a bit off putting for some people. I hope Perlo Games will address those problems to make it a better app.

The game play is fun but after awhile it's all just rinse and repeat. Fortunately enough the game isn't short.

Who says cheap simple games have to suck? Robosockets is definitely an app I would recommend someone looking to kill some time and had some spare change.

Although there are some flaws with this app, it still stays true to the core concept of Minecraft.

Red Bull Kart Fighter World Tour is a great little title for those who like driving games. Although the controls are a little odd, it is still worth trying out since it is free.

The graphics on A Little Turbulence are intriguing.

A fun game though a bit repetitious.

Madden NFL 12 for iPhone is a good, but not perfect mobile version of the gridiron giant. While it may not replace the console version for hardcore fans, it's definitely a great way to get that quick Madden fix at the office or between classes.

Enjoyable, but it takes a long time to get into. Although the graphics are cute and attractive, the story falls very flat, and the action just drags while you're struggling to get the hang of the controls.

A solid game. It has its flaws, but we have to believe they'll be ironed out as Gamevil receives feedback. It's a free download that relies on in-app purchases, but the core of the title can be played for free. If you have an iOS device and like boxing, give it a shot.

Even with the annoying ads, Traffic Panic is still worth a download on your iPhone or iPod touch. It should take you two minutes to figure out if you like the game. If you do, those minutes will quickly become hours.

Visually, the graphics are less impressive than the gesture controls and functionality.

In general, I found Candy Train to be pleasant and certainly a very good deal for the price, but it's not a super-exciting game and while not entirely dull, it's not going to keep you occupied for more than a few minutes here and there.

If you enjoyed Plants vs. Zombies, then Pro Zombie Soccer is a close second. It just needs a dash of movable play to give it what it lacks in terms of gameplay.

The physics in the game are actually quite solid, and the gameplay is challenging enough to get you hooked for a while.

If you're a fan of arcade shooters like Time Crisis or House of the Dead, Zombie Crisis 3D is definitely a game to check out.

In my case, I really couldn't stand the talking fruit, and I initially thought the game was too simple to really be good, but then I COULDN'T STOP PLAYING.

The graphics are top notch with hand drawn characters and plenty of different plush toys to collect. The color and lighting are perfect for this game, but strangely enough it only works with one orientation - not a huge issue, but definitely a little odd.

If you can enjoy Small Street without the multiplayer, then Small Street is a blast, and it's free.

The control system has been copied over too many times to count, and even the stellar graphics can't save the iPhone app from feeling a little tired by the end of an hour or so of playtime.

A juicy little thriller that will definitely satisfy casual gamers with a love for hidden objects and spooky mysteries.

It is a great slots game that has many interesting aspects such as bonus cards, boosters and side games. If you don't like playing casino games, this one probably isn't for you.

All in all Poker Pals is a great, light iOS app that is a worthy purchase if you have plenty of friends who enjoy similar gameplay types. Just don't expect a real brain teaser.

Because the app only features 12 short stages, players are sure to finish it very quickly.

The physics engine used in the game is impressive but unfortunately, it's common for your rider to get stuck on the environment, prompting a restart.

In the world of physics-based games, Boom Boat is elementary. Nonetheless, I had a good time playing around with it before the novelty wore off.

A fairly enjoyable app with a few noteworthy setbacks. Those who are seeking a very long adventure or those who become frustrated very easily with poor controls may wish to avoid the app, as it is significantly lacking in these aspects. For those who are looking for an advanced RPG game and can overlook these setbacks, however, look no further than Fara.

The Garbageman is not an overall terrible app but it is way too plain to keep a person's attention for very long.

If you're only a casual fan of the genre, then you likely won't get much value out of the game. The truth is, unless some changes are made so that the game features more cohesive storytelling, there are a lot of better applications on the App Store for you to spend your money on.

Gold & Chocolate is a slow game by design, and while it is really and truly beautiful to behold, it is more likely to lull you to sleep than engage and entertain.

I am hoping that the next update does address the AI problems and opens the door for good old fashion fun, if they do so then this will be a great game and definitely one to get.

I would recommend Emissary of War to Runescape or Lord of the Rings fan. Though it is very easy, it does get sort of addictive with combat and collecting items, not to mention the witty dialogue.

Overall, for a free iPhone app, Toppling Towers is a good download. If you love the game, fantastic, and if you hate it, you've not lost anything.

If it weren't so buggy, we'd have given it a much higher score, and it would be at the top of our list of favorite games. In the meantime, FD will sometimes simply refuse to start, and will often crash to the home screen for no apparent reason.

Overall, Stupidness 3 is definitely not for everyone. For the standard gamer, the challenges will simply be too frustrating to provide any value. For those who truly enjoy being forced to think outside the box in order to solve challenging brain teasers, however, look no further than Stupidness 3.

If you're into challenging puzzle games, this would be a game for you. But if you're the type that likes to skim through games quickly, stay away from this one.

Top Girl is pretty, but it's also incredibly vapid and light on content. While easy to play and entertaining at first, the overall portrayal of men and women in this game is mildly offensive at best, horribly sexist at worst.

It would be great if Biscuit Games would add more features to make it feel like I am in a colosseum. They can do this by including boss monsters on every five or ten levels and maybe include a way to judge your performance such as spectators throwing tomatoes at you if you are doing poorly or helpful items if you are doing a great job.

All in all, I enjoy the simple game at the heart of Dice Tower. I'm not sure if the additional scoring rules are necessary, but other players may enjoy the added challenge and strategy. In a way, it can be as easy or as difficult as the player wants.

The controls were simple enough to where you could figure out what to do with the new weapon with little to no inconvenience.

Overall, if you are willing to shell out the extra $3 for the Booster Packs you'll be happy with the 200 extra levels, otherwise you'll be done playing this game in less than 5 minutes. Worth a try if you're an old school arcade fan.

The thing which really bugged me was the misalignment of the compass controls.

I wouldn't really call this app anything too special. It may be nice if you want a very, very short app to play around with when you're waiting for something to cook in the microwave, or during a few commercials. However, it doesn't really carry much replay value or anything that would make me come back and want to get right back into it.

I was really excited to review Police Chase Smash, and it has potential to be a great iPhone app. Until that happens, though, it's hard to give it a higher rating.

The lack of any real depth and the abruptness with which the title becomes stale both ruin the value of it.

Although jewel puzzle games are not for me, they do hearken back to old favorites such as Tetris, and thereby earn at least a barely tolerable place in my heart.

Feed-the-Duck is pleasant and challenging, but not without its flaws. It's not ready to steal Angry Birds' spotlight yet, but it's still a good way to spend a bus ride or a wait in line.

At present, it only comes with five levels. Once you complete a level there really is no reason to return to it since you know the solution.

Ultimately it's about dispatching units as fast as you can and a mass of units pretty much always results in a win. I have to say that the AI is good and makes the battles fairly even and makes a win possible.

The concept is a sort of admission of the indubitable existence of intelligent life forms in the universe. Otherwise, I would not have even given the game a second thought.

Mafia Rush was entertaining for the first few minutes while playing it for this review, but the experience quickly became dull.

Eufloria HD is certainly worth trying, but it's likely not worth the current $4.99 price tag.

Frog Toss! is a fun game for random pick-up-and-play, but nothing that you'd keep long-term.

It's a very simple but fast paced game, appropriate for all ages and does pretty much exactly what it says, but I wasn't terribly impressed, and even though it is a shiny universal app, for $1.99, I was expecting more.

Although the graphics and sounds are great, Dino Rush is more like a clumsy version of Yoshi from Super Mario Bros.

The drawback is that if you lose, you have to start at the first wave again. I think Breakeroids is an enjoyable quick-play style iPhone game that tries to bring back the charm of its classic predecessors.

An improvement on the first game, and it definitely provides a tough puzzle challenge to sink your teeth into, but despite its relatively lack of competition in the App Store, it's still not quite a genre standout.

After a long time with Inotia 3, I can honestly say that it was very forgettable. The game is just not that interesting beyond the graphics. I really can't recommend such an average yet pricey game.

Rise of the Snakes is clearly an app meant for children; while some kids who are Ninjago fans will enjoy it, it's unfortunate more care wasn't put into making it fun.

Decent but still unbelievably forgettable.

Trade Nations still retains a lot of the bad aspects of similar social sims, but the adorable graphics and more structured and complex gameplay help it stand out from the crowd a little.

Superman would be a good iPhone app despite these negatives, if not for the frequent bugs and crashes I encountered probably once every 30 minutes of playing time.

Finger Slayer isn't a deep game, but as a momentary distraction it does the job.

I will admit that there is a fair amount of variety packed into this little game, so if the technical issues could be resolved, I'm sure that it would be at least decent if not stellar, but as it currently stands, A Girl in the City is less glamorous Manhattan and more spray-tanned Jersey Shore.

I confess, I really wanted this app to be great, but history has shown time and time again that licensed games tend to be pretty disappointing, and Doctor Who: The Mazes of Time is no exception. While it's far from a total failure, it just doesn't really satisfy.

The gameplay is fun and refreshing, the cars all feel the same, and the level design is average.
