It does have the typical repetitiveness of free games, and the app feels like it actually punishes players for not making purchases. It also doesn't help that the number of tracks are unacceptably limited. All things considered, Rogue Racing feels about average at best.

For those that can look past the in-app purchases and enjoy the gameplay for what it is, WarFriends will be a welcome addition to their home screen. For everyone else, the journey into WarFriends will likely be both frustrating and short-lived. But whether you ultimately find yourself loving or hating WarFriends, it’s worth a try, because we have a feeling that this is a game people will be talking about for quite a while.

Skylanders Battlegrounds isn't a terrible experience by any stretch, but it's pretty far from what most adult players will hope for. And with the unforgiving controls, younger players may find little more than frustration waiting for them.

If you’re into time-management games, it’ll certainly keep your attention for a little while, especially when the challenge ramps up and you’re expected to get more done at a faster pace. If you adore time-management games, become a patron of Snack Mania – At the Theaters. But if time-management games give you awful flashbacks of your years in customer service and make you want to cry, skip it.

Unkilled is a nice looking zombie shooter with a solid control scheme that is held back by stale monetization methods.

Don’t get me wrong, there’s fun to be had here, but it’s fun that you’ve probably already had somewhere else. If the swords and sorcery stylings of Clash Royale put you off then you’re probably going to get along with Blitz Brigade: Rival Tactics a lot better. It’s got guns, lots of guns.

Ultimately, Bread Kittens suffers from a lack of depth. What's here is certainly enjoyable for a spell, and the presentation (both in terms of audio and visuals) is great, but there isn't quite enough to help the game stand out from the current influx of Pokemon clones.

I applaud Gameloft for continuing to tinker with this series so it doesn’t get too stale, but the combination of less characters classes, little control over your gear and an uninspiring PvP element combine to knock Dungeon Hunter 5 down a peg.

It’s quite possible I’m overthinking this, since this is a really simple game that makes it easy for anyone to enjoy some quick football. That doesn’t change the fact that this feels more like an update than a standalone sequel, and not even Brees’ winning grin can change that.

Fantasy Safari certainly delivers on its title, letting you build a safari full of all sorts of fantasy creatures. Unfortunately the game isn't quite as fantastic. Aside from its unique creatures, Fantasy Safari is a terribly standard social zoo tycoon game that offers little new or especially interesting. The creatures are fun, but they don't elevate Fantasy Safari out the realm of simply being an average game.

At the end of the day, the basic idea for Alpha 9 is still incredibly sound.

If, like the developers seem to have done, you ignore the more complex facets of the game, there’s still a lot of Civilization-like fun to have. It’s just a lesser experience than even the first Revolution was.

But despite Timenauts being colorful, character-rich, and at times funny, it’s bland as far as gameplay.

No doubt Dub Dash is meant to appeal to a very specific niche of rhythm fans who adore insane challenges. Granted, those people should have some measure of fun, as Dub Dash looks great and sounds amazing. Just don’t count on enjoying yourself at this club if you don’t have lightning reflexes.

The lack of action will probably put off its fair share of players, but I still think Please, Don’t Touch Anything is a riddle worth exploring. If for no other reason than to see how many in-jokes have been crammed into its more obscure puzzles.

The best way to describe Evil Dead is "almost, but not quite." It's cute and cheeky and so over-the-top that it's got a lot of charm going for it. Unfortunately, the gameplay needs to be tweaked a bit before it'll be really good. Still, it's entertaining in a mindless sort of way, and as a fan of the series, you could do definitely do worse.

Cute animals don't make for a fun game, and DinerTown Zoo is just far too basic to be all that enjoyable.

Conarium isn’t a bad effort at adapting one of Lovecraft’s stories, but simply isn’t dark enough to match up to its inspirations – it too often ends up feeling like The Room, but with inferior puzzles.

But it's frustrating to know that this management game loses its sheen once you reach a point where you feel like you should either spend money or delete the app.

Mob 2 is a technically sound game that has nothing terribly wrong with it. It's cleanly presented and its design isn't terribly offensive. Nevertheless, it's based around a dated concept, and doesn't offer anything new. It's an app whose fun factor is strictly dependent on whether or not player enjoys this type of RPG.

It’s got all the trappings, but scrape them away and you’re doing the same thing you’ve done in countless other mobile RPGs. There’s more meat on these bones, for sure, but Tales of the Rays isn’t the fulfilling meal you might have hoped it was going to be.

As a standalone experience, The Frostrune is lacking. But as the gateway to another world, it shines like ice in the morning sun.

Zombie Wonderland 2: Outta Time! is surprisingly fun, but it's still got some stuff that needs to be addressed by the QA team over at Chilingo. Still, it's been a while since we had a truly good zombie game released for iOS devices, and this is a title that - with a little work - could easily meet this goal.

While more games than not in Flick Champions are kind of a bummer, I found enough enjoyment in the Soccer and Ice Hockey/Tennis games to make me keep coming back for more.

I have mixed feelings about Mystery Manor Blitz. On one hand, the game brings some nice ideas to the hidden object table, and it's a great choice to play if you only have ten or fifteen minutes of game time to spare. But on the other hand, the game badgers you with way too many social profile requests, and deciphering their advertisements from actual in-game menus could be a hidden object level in of itself.

Tree World has some strong roots, but it's going to need a little more foliage if it wants to live up to its potential. This is definitely one to try, but let's hope some future updates flesh things out a little more.

Regardless, if you've found yourself infected the concept of taking over the entire world in a matter of days, then Pandemic 2.5 is the best way to pursue global destruction on the fly.

Gears POP! is a mixed bag. We appreciate the attempt to change up the Clash Royale formula, but we won’t personally make the transition. Gears POP! is a busier, less balanced, and uglier game with an unsatisfying cover system that doesn’t do enough to change up the formula.
