Spires falls flat despite some decent ideas and a polished presentation, but keep an eye out for updates that may make this a worthwhile grab.

Battle Line is a defense game that has bland, boring gameplay, mediocre visuals, and leans heavily on having the player spend money to upgrade.

An unbalanced multiplayer match three puzzler with some unnecessarily tacked on RPG elements, Angry Birds Fight is pretty much a total mismatch.

Food Processing jumps on the food-slicing bandwagon, though in this case it's more of a conveyor-belt an its unique take on the gameplay will quickly have you finger-tied.

Urban Trials Freestyle is a great technical port of the original console game, but the controls leave you struggling to pull off the maneuvers needed to get top times.

There are times when the freemium model makes sense, but with Let's Golf 3 it feels more like a cheap grab for the wallet as it hands out a stripped down title for a sport that requires lengthy multiple rounds to complete, eating up your 'energy' faster than you can earn it.

Those who can wrestle passed being overwhelmed by the glut of chickens appearing, and who don't get annoyed by not always hitting the chicken coop will find a frantic and fun game. Others will just find it frustrating.

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.

MechWarrior: Tactical Command is riddled with poorly implemented features that hint at a much greater tactical experience, but instead make a rich combat-focused universe feel like a slap-fest.

A novel concept in basing a puzzle game around sinking billiard balls, but takes a lot of time and patience to learn and conquer.

This isn't Jay and Silent Bob as you may remember them from Kevin Smith's series of films, but the same loveably impish nature of the characters shines through thanks to great artwork and plenty of references to past exploits.

If you're willing to forgive the combat for being completely stiff and graceless, there's still a bit of meat left on AVP: Evolution's bones, but not much.

Puzzle fans may enjoy Master of Alchemy. It certainly sells its aesthetic, but the finesse required for placement, and the solutions that result from this do not create a cohesive experience.

METAL SLUG 3 is an admirable attempt at bringing SNK's (at the time) swan-song title for the series back to life; the controls don't quite live up to the original Arcade sticks, but it's a small price to pay if you love the series.

Half-inch Heist is an arcade game, in that it is a brutal reflex testing experience that has players replaying old ground unless they pony up cash to make use of the continue system.

While Unpossible is a handsome beast, and does offer some initial thrills, the disconnect between your unseen avatar and its hazardous surroundings left us cold.

ChickenBreak pecks its way out of its mold, but doesn't quite manage to break free; an endless runner that will keep you busy for a short time, but not likely to replace your staples in the genre.

Shadow Vamp is a fantastic idea with a great visual style that is unfortunately let down by unreliable controls.

Six-Guns comes closer than any other freemium title to providing an experience that's packed with action and worth coming back to time and again, but its lack of a narrative and repetitive quests remind you far too often that you're playing a freemium title that's designed around its 'store' button.

Like many word games, Bubbles in Paradise will amuse fans of the genre but the pacing and unlocking won't please a larger audience, even though it might be fun for a short play.

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

Puzzle Cosmos is a fun new idea that fans of arcade puzzlers can enjoy, but it feels too random to really appreciate.

If you can overcome the poor tuturial and figure out the basics, you might find some enjoyment in Dice Jockey's numerical puzzles.

You won't need to stretch your mind too far to overcome the challenges in Super Ball Escape, but the combination of finely-balancing yourself on thin platforms, avoiding enemies and solving basic puzzles does a good job of filling this gap.

Babel Rising 3D is a strong step forward for the series, but where the first was lacking in depth, the sequel stumbles on the all-important controls.

As a game, Clone Eggs falls short of the mark, but if you have the collecting bug in you, it might be hooked by this title.

A decent enough management sim and movie tie-in, but there are much better examples of both out there.

FishMoto doesn't hold back when it comes to challenging players to mastering complex sequences in order to complete its levels; for some this might provide the solid distraction they're after, but for others it represents a wall too high to climb.
