Featuring increasingly more difficult levels and timing- and momentum-based puzzles, Mummy's Treasure is a worthy entrant into a somewhat tired genre.- AppSmile

Though a slick and stylish end-of-days racing game on the surface, Uber Racer's clumsy controls and unforgiving nature negate the eye candy and relegate this one to the pits.- AppSmile

MonsterTruck Rally impressed us with vivid visuals, rip-roaring sounds, and sweet dirty realism. If you love racing titles, are looking for something beyond the pavement, and can overlook the current lack of online competition, you'll find MonsterTruck Rally a entertaining pastime.- AppSmile

The controls are swipe-based, showing responsiveness and easy use. Unfortunately, the angle of the drawn platform doesn't seem to have much impact on the direction that Cosmo bounces, as it does in other similar titles.- AppSmile

Replay value is good, as you'll need to try several strategies before hitting on the optimal solution and earning gold. Also, forked pathways on the level map allow you to bypass some of the 50 available levels if you like, so you'll probably have additional puzzles to go back and solve even after working through the game.- AppSmile
