    FreePlay takes everything that's great about The Sims 3 and twists it into a new freemium shape, without relying on the changes to the formula that took place in the series earlier freemium iteration. Kudos to EA. This is one of the best games of its kind.

    Swingworm is well-made and good-looking, but it's not really all that interesting or fun to play. What will likely make it appealing for some gamers, though, is how easy it is to play. That makes it a great choice for younger children. As a result, you might want to pick it up so your kid relatives have something to play the next time you're all together.

    Overall, Tap Zoo 2: World Tour is really more an official upgrade to Tap Zoo rather than a true sequel. Other than a few new features, the core play isn't different at all and the visuals, though higher quality, are still relatively similar. That said, the design is still solid, but the game loses points with its collection of bugs.

    Along with the classic mechanics that made the first game popular, the new rendition comes with several new modes to offer both veterans and newcomers greater variety and challenge. More polished and expansive than the original, Paper Toss 2.0 is a great new free game for wasting time and procrastinating real work.

    ForestVille looks great and plays well enough, but it's not the "Ville" game many of us were hoping for.

    Six-Guns manages to snatch mediocrity out of the jaws of greatness. It's by no means a terrible title, but it is remarkably shallow, unpolished, and repetitive. That's heartbreaking, honestly, because no one should ever have to use that last sentence when describing a game about cowboys fighting vampires.

    It's easy to let Mini Motor Racing get its hooks into you, since it comes with quality from so many places at once. It's a well polished racer with fantastic visuals, lots of varied tracks and cars, multiple control options to please all comers and oozes style. Minor issues keep it from being perfect, sure, but this one is an easy one to give two thumbs up.

    Another solid, yet standard, game from TeamLava. It has all the fixings of its predecessors and as such is likely a game that will do very well. If nothing else, it offers the same type of play that its fans have come to know and love and does so in a new visual style. In fact, Pet Shop Story tends to look a lot better than the past games in terms of overall art quality and animation (even if many of the avatar assets are reused constantly). All that said, if you are a fan of the TeamLava Story games, then this is an app you'll probably enjoy as well.

    The biggest complaint I can level against Space Frontier is more about what it's not rather than what it is. It would have been much more enjoyable if I was playing "Space City", where I was building up and eventually managing a thriving space metropolis. However, for what Space Frontier is; a quest-based game with some elements of city-building, it is not a half bad way to spend a couple of hours.

    MinoMonsters is good as an introductory game, but for anyone that's ever played a Pokemon game before it will feel very lacking.

    The game begs for greater strategy components in the battle system, or perhaps a means to customize the stats of one's avatar better. All in all though, the game is different than the majority of freemium releases and is still enjoyable to play, and is certainly worth checking out.

    Michael Jackson: The Experience is a game that manages to get most everything right. The gameplay is uniquely suited to the touch screen, the visuals are top notch, and the spirit of the game captures the fun of Jackson's music videos flawlessly. It's a shame, then, that there's so little of it to go around – and that you're only getting about half the package with your initial purchase.

    Yes it's a little too easy, too short, and completely devoid of a story – but Batman Arkham City Lockdown is also a fast-paced, finger-swiping good time that looks stunning, keeps you hooked, and lets you be Batman. What more could you ask for in a video game?

    I can honestly say I was saddened by this release, as a simple port of the original would have been much better. Instead, this release is a stain on an otherwise great classic game. Let's just hope that if RollerCoaster Tycoon ever comes to the App Store, it'll receive more care than Theme Park did.

    The simple to understand game mechanic of delays and time kept leading me down more and more paths of strategy the longer I played. This is definitely one of those "minute to learn, lifetime to master" games. You can burst out of the gate as a beginner and feel like you understand the game and do pretty well, but the longer you play the more the game reveals itself to you – and that's the mark of a great experience.

    Inertia: Escape Velocity isn't quite like anything else you'll find in the App Store. It manages to take a fairly simple and familiar concept and craft an entirely new experience that's -generally- pretty fun and challenging, in spite of a couple of issues that keep it from being truly exceptional.

    Bug Wings continues the gaming trend of chucking small animals great distances for our own enjoyment. It's a good download for those who enjoy catapult/target games, and offers addictive gameplay in a simple, six-legged package.

    find the One-Touch mode to be a real game changer for Tetris on touch based devices. It'll never replace good and true Tetris, but it's truly awesome and a blast to play.

    With its paltry presentation and discombobulated gameplay, Last War not only fails to deliver an entertaining strategy adventure, it suggests that Gamevil may be having a bit of an identity crisis.

    For everything Infinity Blade II has added to the formula, Chair seems to have been just as quick to take something away. It's a sizable adventure to be sure, and there's no doubt it's an absolute must play – but at the same time, it feels like they're holding back content simply so they'll have something to offer as an update down the road. And when that "something" could be content that was in your last game... well... that just feels like cheating.

    Though the title of the game is perhaps a bit deceptive, Modern War is still a great social gaming option for folks who dig war themes. The game can be a little slow going until you've built up a base that yields a steady cash flow, and the multiplayer is pretty lackluster. But in short spurts, Modern War is a fun way to pass the time.

    With no crutch system in place, you know without a doubt that you've earned every point you got, and that's a pretty good feeling.

    Aside from the lack of attention to detail, NFL Pro 2012 is more an indictment on the platform itself rather than the ability of the developers. The freemium model, however, makes the game as vanilla as it is broken.

    Saving Yello doesn't really do anything new or exciting as a physics puzzler. That said, what it does, it does very well. It's charming and fun and challenging and it looks absolutely magnificent.

    Between the interface issues and the unusual approach to gameplay, I can't bring myself to give Girl With a Heart Of a full-on recommendation.

    Overall, though, Act of Fury: Kraine's Revenge proves that revenge doesn't always have to be served cold. Sometimes, when vengeance is all sound and fury and hot-blooded madness, the results can still be a pretty tasty dish.

    The initial fun just isn't worth the frustration when you start losing online matches because your opponents are willing to spend way more cash than you are.

    The Show Must Go On will set you back $1 in the App Store, and there is nothing in the game that justifies the price. Cute art style aside, save your dollar for some pool at the local pub and turn off the lights on this game.

    Whether you're a fan of the game and are always in want of an opponent, or you've never played and want a cheaper way to learn it and check it out, it's hard to beat this version. Kudos to Codito – they're quickly proving themselves to be among the masters of digital board game adaptations.
