    Overall, I'd say that this application is pretty top notch. My only real problem, which I stated earlier in the review, is the control system. If they release an update that fixes that minor problem, it will be absolutely perfect.

    Aemula Oldies S is a perfect little app for anyone who wants to go back to their retro floppy disc days. There are inline ads when you're going throughout the game picking menu, which is not too bad to deal with. Overall I'm really happy that there is finally a DOS emulator in the App Store. Best of all, it's a free download.

    Though the meat of the game is spent flicking through virtual comic strips, Frederic: Resurrection of Music is still a fun entry into the rhythm based genre for iPhone gamers, and there is sure to be enough content to make it worth the price of $3.99.

    Little Acorns is a lot of fun and should appeal to users of all ages. The application plays on both the iPad as well as the iPhone or iPod touch thanks to its universal nature.

    It's a simply to understand, really hard-to-master style game app. The art is very retro, the controls are solid (so long as you stick to tilt), and the levels are challenging and fast to play. I found the music to actually be pretty good and the theme matches well.

    Although I wasn't completely enthralled by the story, the app itself is very beautifully produced and a stellar example of how to make the most of interactive storytelling on the iPhone and iPad, and it's definitely worth checking out if you're a gaming or comics fan.

    This app offers a very fun style of play and is easy to get into. It's free, so there's no reason not to at least try it. If you're anything like me, you'll find yourself playing it more and more. I can easily see myself playing this app for a while. There are no major problems that I could find.

    If you're a fan of of Angry Birds and Cut the Rope, Munch Time may be the next great iOS game you'll fall in love with. There's not a lot of long-term replay value, but with 40 levels for $0.99, your money is well spent here.

    If you feel like you've thoroughly exhausted yourself with Angry Birds and its many seasonal sequels then the Siege Hero game may not be for you. If a new twist on what is already a classic game sounds up your alley then Siege Hero is definitely something worth looking into.

    I am hooked on this game. Grim Joggers is somewhat disturbing and downright brutal at times-especially when you are running through the battlefield and limbs are flying-but it is easily one of the most entertaining platformer games I have played.

    It's not really an intellectually satisfying or especially challenging puzzle game, but the heady triumph of finding all the elements is hard to top. It may not be very deep, but Doodle God is about as simple, accessible, and gorgeously presentable a game as you're going to find.

    At $0.99, this is a no-brainer. With hundreds of thousands of apps on the market, it's not easy to find the high quality games like Raccoon Rising. The 60 different phases and high quality graphics will keep gamers playing Raccoon Rising for a while.

    The only limitation I see is that because the music is so crucial to gameplay, you can't play with the volume muted. Still, I think that is a small limitation of the application, and the music alone makes for immersive puzzle gameplay.

    It would be really cool if the developers added an actual one on one fight mode to Ice Rage. The game also lacks online multiplayer capabilities as of right now.

Ice Rage is a fun, fast paced hockey game and works on most newer iOS devices. You get inexpensive hockey gaming action.
