Fairway Solitaire Blast is still an entertaining card game, but it does nothing to live up the original’s fantastic blend of cards and sport.

While you could stick with another basic twin-stick shooter, D.A.R.K at least attempts to go a step further by featuring a story and cinematics to set the mood; it's not a lot, but it's better than shooting things at random.

Decent graphics and a fun, unique idea aren't enough to keep Volcano Escape above the rising flow of lava and you're likely to be burned by this challenging endless vertical platformer.

Combining objective based gameplay with the swinging rope genre creates a fun and novel concept, but the mechanics themselves could use some more fine tuning.

Wraithborne will satisfy fans looking for a mobile hack and slash, but the lack of anything ground-breaking or satisfying in the combat does little to raise this title above its contemporaries.

Gibbets 2 cashes in on its Internet fame, but doesn't quite make a smooth transition to the App Store thanks to simplified visuals and a control system not on par with the original.

Smash Bandits can be fun in small bursts, but is hampered by all the more cynical hallmarks of freemium design.

Real Soccer 2011 doesn't add much more than graphical advancements to its football franchise and while that may be enough for some it's a hard sell to those who already own earlier World Cup games from this year.

One would expect a game based around Annoying Orange to be far more annoying, but diving in to this skill-shot title is pleasantly rewarding at least for a while.

Most likely meant for a younger audience, the cuteness of Clay and his world will appeal to that demographic, but other players will likely find this too bland to be of much fun.

Meant for younger players, Pinch Peeps develops hand-eye coordination by smooshing together bright and colorful flowery things. More seasoned players wont find anything to keep their interest here.

If you like Pac-Man, and still enjoy endless runners, you'll probably enjoy a few rounds of Pac-Man Dash!. It's a pretty bog-standard entry in the genre, however.

Suspect In Sight comes out of the gate swinging as a fun, explosive and speedy parody of Cop shows, but quickly becomes bogged in by repetition as the player grinds for new experiences.

BackStab is less assassin and more rogue in its approach to open-world action, but if you're simply after a skull-cracking romp you'll get your full share here.

A simple, yet fun Rampage clone that's guaranteed to brighten your day.

Instead of throwing a bundle of randomly selected titles at classic gamers, Atari's Greatest Hits lets you choose what you want to play; games this old don't always age gracefully, but they're given a lot of respect in this emulation collection.

We've seen Lumber Jacked and its platforming challenges before, but while it's polished in many respects, some of its bugs and gameplay features threaten to remove the satisfaction of acing its many three-star stages.

Fish Out Of Water! has an immediate and friendly appeal to its simple gameplay, but a polished interface is not enough to disguise the lack of variety in the gameplay itself - what should be a more-ish 'just one more go' system is buried under a system that rewards luck as much as skill.

Bloodmasque's neat historical setting and photo-based wizardry can't cover up its derivative and repetitive combat system.

Tries to mix arcade style gameplay with controls that aim for a more 'genuine' experience that are initially intuitive, but challenging to master.

Catch the Candy is an interesting distraction, but beyond a handful of physics scenarios it fails to remain more than an interesting waste of time.

Whether or not this game is worth your time and money is based on the concept and your love of Woody Woodpecker.

At least Woody's trademark laugh stays intact.

Boy Loves Girl has the feeling of an art game, but the message is overshadowed by frustrating gameplay and bland visuals.

Midway Arcade is more than just a trip down memory lane - it's a real pint-sized Arcade that goes to great lengths to provide cheap thrills and spills that are hard to pass up if you're an old-scool gamer.

Tin Man Can has simple controls and great presentation but its gameplay revolves around trial and error, and avoiding all the fun little elements put into the game.

A celebration of the unbridled fun and silliness that makes the series so enjoyable to play while adding some neat touches to the endless platforming formula.

These Robotic Hearts of Mine is a beautiful and poetic melding of narrative and gameplay, creating something far more inspiring than either could achieve in the process; sadly the game's open format makes it hard to engage completely, meaning many may miss out on (or not care for) this deeper experience.

Raid Leader is a short burst of fun for those nostalgic (or aching for their next hit) of 'raiding' in larger MMOs; the process of condensation has also limited the experience, but the lack of real 'leveling' and jumping straight to the boss encounters themselves may be attractive all on its own.

For fans of Pandemic 2 (and I know there are a lot of you), Pandemic 2.5 is exactly what you could have expected of a port of the title to the iOS. Unfortunately the opportunity to refine and address playability issues was not taken, leaving newer players more than a little lost and confused.

Karateka fails to excite as it expects players to enjoy short and repetitive bouts of tapping without any real input in to the outcome of each fight beyond their skill at 'timing' - you could save Mariko three times, but saving her once proves to be once too many times already.

Though it's a rare feat to successfully merge enjoyable gameplay and education, Atomic Fusion: Particle Collider manages to bring an entertaining slant to the periodic table.

Gravity Runner is certainly a fun title to jump in to, but unless you can stomach the constant failure it's a hard game to love.

Cognition Episode 1 is an otherwise dark and engaging adventure game that's left feeling crippled thanks to a poorly optimized adaption.

Has its charms, but the visuals border on going overboard (which is in itself fairly impressive considering the genre), making your continued survival a combination of luck and twitchy skills.

For every inspired touch and clever control system World War Z delivers, it serves up a dull search sequence or terrible melee episode to cancel them out. There's a good game in there, but in its current state, this zombie shooter is only half alive.

Random Heroes keeps things simple, returning to the old-skool format of placing one level after another with no real reward for progression; it's a trip down memory lane, but a brief and uneventful one at that.

If you can put up with the unresponsive controls, you will find a very well made Action RPG for your iphone.

A true time waster in the sense that the minutes will whisk away as you plow through level after level of bouncing aliens around collecting lightning orbs. A decent play, but nothing memorable.
