    Hannibal at the Gates is a conservative expansion, but nevertheless a good one. The second punic war is one hell of a conflict to portray in a strategy game, and the new Rome II DLC does that reasonably well.

    UFHO 2 is an interesting puzzle game, with a nice concept and some depth, but also a few controls issues that keep it away from excellence.

    Galactikitties is a fun, unique and engaging game. It's not amazing, but it's fun while it lasts. And Grumpy Cat is not amused.

    Simpler than in its "home" version, F1 Race Stars still is a fun arcade racing game.

    This DLC adds some interesting stuff, but the core game is still severely lacking in depth.

    A bit of Snake, a bit of Candy Crush... Folt is an interesting and original puzzle game.

    A "zen" game that makes you relax but lacks in challenge and longevity.

    • 85 Critic Score
    This is probably the best leap ‘em up on App Store, and this thanks to fast its paced action and accurate controls. Jump all over the level taking risks in order to increase the score has never been so little frustrating.

    If you enjoyed Tiny Space Adventure then there’s no reason why you can't appreciate Tiny Prehistoric Adventure and its nice way to deal with graphical adventures and trial ad error mechanics.

    The Big Bank Heist is a new PayDay 2 DLC which offers a really tough, exciting and long-lived mission, where planning is essential. The flaws of the main game are still here (graphics and enemy AI), but if you're a fan of the four crazy robbers by Overkill Software, you won't regret the purchase.

    Under it's less than spectacular aesthetics, Growing Pains hides a very interesting and challenging experience.

    Meditate is harder than you expect if you try to do that on a roof or a volcano, but if you are a Shaolin monk, well it will be just cool. The Balance of Shaolin is just that: a simple and challenging game with a Shaolin Monk. And a Volcano.

    Nexon brings in Europe Lost Saga, a free-to-play online 3D brawler which is technically quite simple, but successfully combines modern MOBA accessibility with a great range of fighters, arenas and game modes.

    • 77 Critic Score
    A simple, nice and fun platform game. It's a bit on the easy side, but that encourages exploration, at least.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A funny and bizarre endless runner (and endless shooter) that's got some deep meat under the attractively crazy look and feel.

    Who wouldn't want to save space cows from evil insects? Celleste is a fun and easy to handle puzzle game.

    AR-K has got some good and fun writing and a decent style, but the badly conceived puzzles drag it down.

    Ground Pounders is a fun "light" strategy game that fails when it tries to innovate, but gives a globally nice experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A challenging arcade game in which you have to think (and tap) fast. Really fast.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 67 Critic Score
    There are some hits and misses, but Splatter – Blood Red Edition goes straight to point. Aside its graphics and it's flawed story, there's a simple, and sometimes addictive, twin stick shooter. It won't be a revolution for the genre, but it's enjoyable.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A very well made game dedicated to the Great War. It could have more diplomatic options and the price is maybe a bit too high, but it definitely deserves your attention.

    Cosmophony is a great arcade game with an amazing soundtrack. Controls are responsive and the difficulty level is well balanced. There’s something ipnotic in its gameplay, and that’s cool.

    If the game had had more precise controls and a more varied gameplay it could been great game instead an ok one.

    Entwined is an honest game, probably better then the PS3/PS4 version, but it's got the same flaws of its big brother: it’s a sort of incomplete and not refined enough experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    Challenging, good looking, fun and clearly inspired by Snake: if you like this type of games you definitely should try it.

    Absorption offers a new way to tackle the arcade game on iOS, and its perfect controls allow the player to enjoy an hard but fair arcade game.

    • 79 Critic Score
    A nice and easy arcade game coming from the mobile world. It's all about speed and good reflexes.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Under its great visuals it lays a common endless runner game, with solid mechanics and a lot of aliens to shoot. It’s kinda fun, without a real spark.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    If you a have a friend to play with, this is a great collection of games. If they were all at the same level it could have been a must buy.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    A good finale for this brand new Lone Wolf’s storyline, and the biggest one so far. It’s probably too focused on combat, but still a solid episode which lays a good foundation for the future of gamebooks on mobile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Stylish, with precise controls and a great OST: One More Line take the arcade genre from another perspective, and it’s a good one.

    There’s nothing special in Rob-o-tap, just an honest little game that do its best with kids and newcomer to the genre.

    With its puzzle and discovery mechanics Haunted Manor 2 is definitely interesting for lovers of adventure genre, but it’s simply not good enough to please everyone. It’s still a well crafted game though.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    A good game with a nice bunch of character and a remarkable level design, with really nothing new to show.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Even if Retro City Rampage: DX is a great step forward from the previous installment, it still lacks what it takes to make a great game. Missions can become literally a chore and the parody itself isn't funny at all.

    Volt is a clever puzzle games, engaging and with really accurate controls. There’s nothing really new in it, but it’s crafted with expertise.

    • 92 Critic Score
    Hidden behind the tragicomic silhouette of a zany little spider lies a sublime distillation of cruelty and fine gameplay: Daddy Long Legs might be the first "survival" endless runner, but surely is the epitome of a must have. Do not miss it.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Three colors, a solid physics system and a white ball to throw in a distant hole. There’s nothing else in Desert Golfing and yet I can’t stop playing.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fun arcade game with a lot of 80’s vibe and a really cool soundtrack. It’s not perfect, but it’s fun and with a lot to discover.

    • 75 Critic Score
    Even though we are talking about a Flappy Bird clone this is a good one, nice to see and more accessible to play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A new way to explore the endless runner territory, with a more thoughtful but equally challenging gameplay. It’s really beautiful to see to, and that’s always good.

    • 83 Critic Score
    A three-match games wit RPG elements and giant monsters: Hunter Quest is indeed a companion app, but it can walk with its legs, and they are strong ones.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A clever, fun and most of all relaxing puzzle game, graced by a cool and minimal look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    That’s not a perfect, but nevertheless it’s an engaging and hard puzzle game.
    • tbd Metascore

    A bizarre free to play platform MMO that's incredibly fun.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    There’s something good and engaging in this arcade game, but it’s buried under tons of ads and pop-up.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    A fast paced and insanely crowded shoot ‘em ‘up with nothing really new to show, but fun enough to keep entertained for a while.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Ultraflow is a clever physics puzzle game which can be both hectic and thoughtful, and everything, from controls to visuals is crafted with expertise.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Iron Fisticle's nostalgic trip is fun, but sadly it doesn't last too long. It feels like a medieval Robotron 2084, proving how clever was Eugene Jarvis' idea. The game is addictive, but its content burns quickly.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you're a fan of the original game, this downloadable content is worth the price.

    • 75 Critic Score
    With its “rounded concept”, Sleep Attack tries to put some fresh ideas into the tower defense genre. Mission accomplished: the game is fun, addictive and clever. A recommended choice, even for the genre's freshmen.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    The gameplay works fine, but production values are really low and there's not much depth.

    The adrenalinic shoot'em up inspired by the eighties' classic masterpiece Uridium has finally come to 3DS. And the 3D effect rocks.

    Entertaining, challenging and well-programmed, forma.8 is an outstanding tribute to the Metroid explorative gameplay.

    Lacking in fighters and originality, Rivals of Aether is a fine re-implementation of Smash Bros aimed at hardcore players.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Italian shoot 'em up can be lived as a challenge to face until the end or just a five-minutes tool of entertainment. Either way is good and works.

    Paranormal Activity: The Lost Soul has some problems with the controls and doesn’t last long, but the atmosphere is great and all this is enough to make it an interesting horror game.

    Let's Sing 2019 features new mechanics and will let you sing many pop songs with your friends or other players online. Although the graphics and the sound is pretty good, we expected a more various playlist, along with the disappointment of the unavailability to catch screenshots.

    Overland is a good roguelike turn-based strategy, despite some defects and deficiencies it can satisfy those looking for a challenging and potentially endless game.

    A retro adventure that brings us back to the '90s. A good recreation of the past, but only a decent game.

    Dragonhold stamps an epic end to the Season of the Dragon, with only minor steps forward from the series's regular formula.

    DiRT Rally 2.0 is a solid improvement for the rally sim made in Codemasters. The physics and the driving model are top notch, even driving with a joypad, while the lack of a couple of locations and the general aging of the Ego Engine limit the game scope.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Hot Garbage is a DLC pack that adds a new, self-contained area and a few upgrades to the original gameplay formula. Despite that, its story can be completed in a couple of hours and the number of new activities is too small for its price tag.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A nice Anniversary Edition of a piece of gaming history. First you'll have to tame the joypad controls, then you'll be able to deep dive into this fascinating game.

    Aftermath is not a huge expansion, but every bit of content that comes with it is fitting perfectly with what the base game already had to offer.

    • 86 Critic Score
    With its perfect controls and its intriguing mechanics, OkunoKA Madness is a love letter to all recent high-precision platforms, like Slip, The End is Nigh and Super Meat Boy. A true hardcore platform, with a lovely speedrunning twist that guides the player in a deep loop of tries and learning. A very good take, despite some too frustrating levels.

    Cosmodread is exactly everything you can expect from a first-person survival horror in VR, but with the addition of a rogue-lite and procedural structure that makes it a little different than usual.

    A proper new R-Type game 18 years after the last one. With good gameplay, interesting levels and lots of unlockables, R-Type Final 2 is a good - if a bit rough - revival of a historical series.

    • 62 Critic Score
    Aerial Knight's Never Yield is an honest and essential endless runner, which stands out for style and cultural vibes, but that's a little bit too naive in terms of gameplay and whose scope is narrowed by the lack of a "best time ladder" or any form of multiplayer.

    Most probably the best Super Smash Bros. clone on the market, a competent 4-player brawler with enough content to keep players engaged. To be avoided if you plan to play it for the single-player modes.

    An interesting game clearly inspired by Animal Crossing, yet with enough quirk to claim its own charm. The "forced" gameplay rhythm may turn off some players.

    Souldiers is a solid metroidvania, built around all the typical stylistic features of the genre. However, it struggles to find a distinct identity and carries a bit of technical and gameplay problems that negatively impact the experience. The inventory management, key mapping and save system in the game affect accessibility quite strongly, and the plot itself has never great peaks of originality. Still, Souldiers remains a fun game, with good ideas in variety of builds and situations.

    • 65 Critic Score
    The idea behind Soundfall is intriguing, but the execution falls flat too quickly. The rhythm game hybridization works most of the time, and it's probably its best feature, but the RPG elements tossed in just to add some more depth to an intrinsical arcade genre might not suit everyone's tastes. At the end of the day, the low production values and the general repetitiveness of the experience are what really stand out, and that's just disappointing.

    Industria is not exactly a memorable first person shooter, being limited in terms of gameplay also due to some very questionable game design choices. The Bleakmill shooter is instead appreciable for a fascinating dystopian atmosphere, thanks to which it manages to reach a full sufficiency.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Frail Hearts Versicorae Domlion is an interesting video game that explores the rotten city of Gris through a suggestive setting and an intriguing and well-characterized cast of characters. The story always works well, but the gameplay (a mix between RPG and Visual Novel) doesn't always. Maybe it's because of the limitations of RPG Maker, or maybe it's an excess of naivety; however, the game developed by Sezhes will certainly appeal to anyone looking for a dark story full of monstrosities.

    With Dordogne, the trend of games that explore the past through memories, objects, and nostalgia continues to expand. The game is crafted with rare elegance and takes time to immerse us fully as we navigate between the adult presence of Mimi and the memories of a summer spent in Dordogne. While there could have been better utilization of the medium by enhancing the gameplay interactions, Dordogne offers a beautiful, bittersweet experience. Highly recommended, especially if you have your own cherished objects that transport you back to your childhood.

    Not the most ambitious DLC ever made for sure, but if you enjoy Solasta and especially if you like it because of its tactical combat then you'll find some new interesting battles in Palace of Ice that should satisfy whoever was left wanting for more turn-based goodness.
