For fans of Final Fantasy and RPGs, this is a no brainer. A very well made port of one of the defining games of the RPG genre.

If you don't remember playing Karate Champ at the arcade you may have tried it or the many clones that came on various consoles, so you can almost guarantee some nostalgic value at this excellent arcade port for your iDevice.

If you've played any previous Kairosoft games, you know what to expect here. A well made sim game that will eat away the hours. This particular flavor is about corporate development.

Pocket League Story takes Kairosoft's journey in to the world of sport even further, delving in to the numbers behind the game; this can be somewhat detrimental to the pacing, but getting to watch your players perform is a reward all its own.

Pirates vs. Ninjas vs. Zombies vs. Pandas doesn't bring a whole lot of changes to the table, but the challenging level designs and fun faction-based themes put it ahead of a lot of the pack.

A brilliant mix of action and real time strategy elements used to create a seriously absorbing battle system, but once you've unlocked most major upgrades things tend to get repetitive.

Guns'n'Glory will give tower defense fans a nice change-up with its moveable towers and limited resources, but as with most TD's it still suffers from the same repetitive gameplay.

It's worth grabbing Laser Dolphin for the name alone, especially when it lives up to the name by letting you pilot a dolphin with a fricken' laser on its head; (insert evil 'muahahahaha's in here).

It's bunny Pachinko. That alone is worth a look.

Puzzle Agent is a interesting take on the puzzle-adventure genre that's happy to poke fun at the sheer oddity of a puzzle-obsessed town.

Chromanoids is an interesting experiment in creating a real arcade-like feel without needing to nickel and dime customers with micro-purchases.

As movie tie-ins go, Hunger Games: Girl on Fire keeps things simple, but original and fun, making it the perfect companion for wasting your time if you haven't already seen it on the big screen.

Now that the line drawing sneaker is an established genre, we'll be seeing a slew of titles in it, but as long as they're as polished and enjoyable as games like Critter Escape, that will be no problem at all.

Though it borrows from other word games, Sqwords is competent puzzler in its own right.

Presented with wit and style, Fist of Awesome is a good old-fashioned arcade romp with some seriously entertaining sound effects.

Revolt may not pack the best campaign, but it's more than your average twin-stick shooter and thanks to its upgrade system and random arenas you'll have a solid endless mode to look forward to as well.

Epoch.2 delivers more of its predecessor's handsome duck-and-cover gameplay, but doesn't really address the issues which irked us about the original.

1000 Heroz has the potential to be something really amazing, but the slow release of levels means you'll either need to put it aside for a time or knuckle down to obsessing over one race per day.

Super Mega Worm is a mindless action title that places you in the place of the 'big bad mutant' out to devour humanity, one baby-pram at a time.

There's no reason not to give We Rule a try thanks to being free, but if you've already tried games that are similar there's nothing particularly new yet.

Munch Time packages ninja-rope swinging gameplay in to the tried-and-true formula of cute, three-star physics puzzlers that have come before it.

Even though you may be suffering from Kairosoft-fatigue, Grand Prix Story is a fantastic sim that harkens back to the developer's roots while showing the polish you'd expect of a later title in their catalog.

Road Blaster for the App Store is a solid adaption of a classic arcade game and arguably better for the transition even despite its unforgiving gameplay and lack of in game help.

Muffin Knight combines endless gameplay with unlockable and upgradeable characters to create a unique platforming experience.

If you like Tower Defense, and you like zombies, Dead Stop is a very competent entry in the genre.

Carmageddon is the '97 classic given just enough of a tweaking to make it feel at home on the iOS platform - there are still some quirks left over from the original, but smashing your way through pedestrians and vehicles alike makes for a disturbingly fun distraction.

A decent modern reimagining of an on-rails arcade shooter, Star Horizon is a fiery and fitting tribute the likes of Afterburner and Starfox.

Although short (anywhere up to four hours depending on how much you sidetrack), LostWinds makes up for it by not trying to pad the game with time-wasters and handing you plot almost as fast as you can handle it. The iOS version also boasts a collectable side-mission that unlocks 3D models, which can subsequently be used as an overlay for pictures in your library; it's not much, but at least it acknowledges the platform's social features.
