Is it worth the price of admission? Solving puzzles with Professor H and the gang will only set you back $5, which is a great overall value considering what you get. If you enjoy match games and are looking for something different, Jewel Keepers: Easter Island won't disappoint.

This minimalist take on a Commodore classic impresses with its unique design and tense atmosphere, but suffers from some noticeable bugs in its initial release.

This frantic fighter/shoot-'em-up hybrid is chock full of explosive content, but its distinctly Japanese tone and uneven production values may put off some gamers.

Most troublesome of all is the timed aspect of the levels -- they suck all the fun out of fooling around with paint. I wasn't a fan of the timed segments in the first game, either, but at least those were optional segments and not required gameplay to advance the story.

Dirt offers a really cool and even moving story for the price of a bottled water. If you want a really interesting way to spend an hour, Dirt is more than worth your time and dollar.

Truly a strange bird in the world of shooters. It doesn't offer the rich backstory and characters of a game like BioShock, but damned if I didn't laugh countless times during the many outbursts of colorful language from its cast. Like its innovative predecessors, Bulletstorm goes against the grain of the popular norm, often in exciting and hilarious ways, and though it's not perfect, it's still one hell of a ride.

I especially appreciate the numerous calibration option that the game offers -- finally, I have a game that I can play while attempting to accomplish a full 360 degree orbit on a swing set.

Plenty of modes and surprisingly funny writing make this a weirdly enjoyable piece of unexpected "edutainment."

Whether it's the exhaustively full-featured leaderboards, gorgeous graphics, or community features, every element of Super QuickHook goes above and beyond what's expected of an indie game release on the App Store.

I have to admit that for nearly the entire time I played Super Mega Worm I had a smile on my face, and that's the best recommendation this reviewer can give.

This unconventional handheld port of Capcom's flagship fighting franchise works surprisingly well with the iPhone and iPod Touch's control schemes, but suffers largely due to a lack of online wi-fi.

It's only a buck, and I wouldn't hesitate to call it one of the most interesting puzzle-adventure games on the App Store. If you're tired of shallow arcade-style games and want a game with a good, interesting story, Infinight is more than worth its asking price.

Unfortunately, the game's tilt control scheme never felt quite right, so take that into consideration before jumping in expecting pure Star Fox-esque bliss.

Splodes are magical little creatures that fill the world with color and music whenever they pop, so instead of feeling terrible whenever you end their sad lives, you'll end up inexplicably happy.

You can't expect to be great at Spirit the first time you pick it up, but it's definitely a unique and well-crafted game that's worth a look.

It has a terrible name, but Spinzizzle is a surprisingly fun game.

Sparkle might be a copycat, but it's also a fantastic game.

Maybe it's not the developers' fault that this just isn't much fun. Perhaps the formula for a Sonic game simply no longer holds up in the 21st century.

Volcano Escape by itself is definitely worth the $1.99 its developers are charging for it, but the optional in-app purchases are definitely overpriced. Still, if you don't mind being locked out some of the game's content, you won't miss out on much.

A bit too tough for the Dora crowd, too immature for pre-teens, and not interesting enough for adults, Pucca's Kisses Game doesn't really have a built-in audience, despite having some unique gameplay elements.

Still, it isn't all bad. Explodemon has a lot of heart and some interesting ideas at play, but even in its short shelf life it wears a little thin. There are leaderboards and lots of collectibles to uncover, but once you've played the first two levels you've seen it all.

Hard Corps: Uprising is built for a very specific type of gamer. If you fit that description, you won't be disappointed with your purchase. But while many aspects of Uprising are appealing, without endearing characters to root for or an effective save system, it feels more like a missed opportunity than a tribute to the classics.

A good combination of hazards (flying enemies, poisonous walls, crazy people with spears, etc.) and power-ups (invincibility orbs, magical flying mustaches, rockets, etc.) make this a perfect pull-out-and-play experience for the iPhone and ensure that things don't get stale.

All of the levels are extremely short, but that seems to be well-suited to the design of this game, so that's not necessarily a bad thing. Kids seem to really latch onto this game, so if you've got a little one running around in your house, this might be worth the download to keep them entertained.

It's really pretty incredible how dense this game is.

With beautiful graphics, well designed maps, and user-friendly features like the ability to speed up the flow of time to minimize downtime make this an easy contender for the honor of best TD game on both the iPad and iPhone.

It's already a fun, extremely well-written game, so those who enjoy strategy games shouldn't pass it up.

There's a dozen different enemies to add some variety, which is good because the fast-paced nature of the game makes that a necessity.
