Although it’s not the most complex app to play, Alice in Wonderland: A New Champion is perfect for gamers who are still in the process of exploring.

Football fans will love NFL Runner: Football Dash because it’s a blast to play. You could get super competitive, building up enough coin to top whatever team that you hate, or just strive to topple as many obstacles as possible. Either way, it’s game on!

There’s a lot of fun to be had with Dragon Finga.

Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2: Foodimal Frenzy is fun to play through but a little too easy for my taste.

Sidekick Cycle is a simple game that’s fun to play in bursts, but there are better endless runner/downhill racer experiences to be found in the App Store.

If you can master the controls, it’s a lot of fun to try to beat your high score and check off the achievements linked to GameCenter. But, with as finicky as these controls are, most players will find more aggravation than fun here.

Puzzle Knights is a diverting title that enables gamers to enjoy two different experiences within the same app. The combat mechanic may not be as intense as Infinity Blade III, but if you want a relatively peaceful, easy feeling experience with an RPG puzzler, this app doesn’t disappoint.

Coin Quest could have been something decent but fails to entertain.

Gravity: Don’t Let Go is an intriguing enough app which ably serves as a complement to the highly anticipated film. There’s a multiplayer mode that is being offered in a future update, but as a free to play title it’s still a worthy download, especially if you’re in the mood for a cool little space odyssey.

Slot Revolution is one of those rare apps that knows how to effectively employ the freemium model, as it gives gamers a ton of action without any mandatory in-app purchase.

If you have other apps to play or have the patience of Job, this cash grab exists as a minor hindrance to an otherwise addicting app. Hills of Glory 3D is a multifaceted gaming experience, and its comic strip style animation and battle style instantly won me over. Due to empty pockets, in-app purchases are not exactly on my to-do list. I can play the waiting game and still play this app for free. Patience is a virtue, especially when you’re winning the battle.

It would have been cool if there were other features, such as monsters in the field or hidden areas to explore, but going from Point A to Point B gets rather boring. But, if you ask me, the only thing that Lead the Brave has led me to is a hunt for better games on the App Store. I suggest you leave it alone and search out better titles!

For all it sets out to do, Spellcaster: The Forgotten Spell is a fine start to what is supposed to be a trilogy.

In-game purchases aside, Drift Mania: Street Outlaws is a solid racing title with one big problem: the gyroscopic controls will probably make you dizzy. Still, if you’re good at resisting vertigo and the like, and you want a drifting-oriented racer with tons of car upgrade and cosmetic options, you could do much worse than this.

Maybe if there were more games to play without paying first would Ariel’s Musical Surprise be a bit more enjoyable.

Kingturn Underworld RPG could be a game that one could easily see pop up on an old Playstation, but the retro feel and fun battles makes this app so much fun to play.

Pixel Karts GP, sadly, lacks that fun, and feels like an unearned attempt to cash in on the nostalgia for better games of years since past.

Even though Seven Dwarfs: The Queen’s Revenge borders on the line of dullness, there are at least enough things to do before it’s off to work you go.

You can pay for the premium version to remove ads and open up the options to play as a guard or a civilian, but if you don’t mind the constant ads and being relegated to a prisoner, then Hard Time is worth a look.

So unless you positively have to find out what happens to Brian and Gina for $4.99, I’d skip over this one and play another run-through of Telltale Games’ The Walking Dead.

Even with its online flaws, Mr. Ludo is an engaging, free to play app which caters to board game lovers.

Arc Squadron Redux is the pinnacle of this genre and well worth a play if you’ve ever fancied yourself an X-Wing pilot or other hero of the stars.

Ghost Toasters is a well made game with a ton of character, but it doesn’t make up for its repetitive nature.

Is Optical Inquisitor a great game? I’d be hard pressed to label it as such. But it’s certainly memorable. And for only a dollar, I would say it is definitely worth a look. If for no other reason than to see the crazy mishmash of inappropriate hilarity that is collected here.

With a variety of cards for you to assemble and test against the masses, Combat Monsters is a great title for players to unleash the strategist within.

Juice Cubes is another winning release from Rovio, and if it motivates you to put a few healthy slices of fruit in your freezer, all the better.

Go grab a cup of overpriced coffee instead. You’ll still get ripped off, but at least you’ll have more fun and actually feel something other than seething anger.

Star Wars Pinball 2 is an engaging journey that should please fans of the sci-fi epic as well as tablet gamers looking to throw a few balls around.
