Mario Party: Island Tour feels like a step backwards for the series, thanks to an uninspiring mini-game collection and an often grating single player experience. Fans of the series may want to check it out, but others can easily let this tour boat pass them by.- Modojo

The game has its faults and frustrations, but it also has its moments of enjoyment too, and there's undoubtedly the building blocks of a far more enjoyable game that we hope either an update, or a sequel, can introduce.- Modojo

Even if you embrace the simply and repetitive pathfinding gameplay, you may find the sometimes slippery controls leave you feeling robbed from time to time - a pity, as we definitely had our share of fun with the game. A free-to-play offering with the option to earn or purchase new level packs would also have helped Sunday Lawn Seasons stand out much more in a tough week of new releases.- Modojo

While Band Stars has an interesting concept and some fun characters, its glitches, lack of entertainment, and sheer lack of music make it less than enjoyable. Think carefully before taking this band on the road.- Modojo

It's decent, the sort of free casual game that'll grab your attention for a couple minutes here and there, but quite frankly, you can find plenty of superior games that'll do an even better job at that.- Modojo

One Epic Game isn't bad per se, but the vastly superior games on the App Store make it somewhat irrelevant. You could do worse at $0.99, but there's no way you'll play this game more than a week.- Modojo

And yet, we find ourselves coming back to Rockpocalypse, mostly to unlock items, unravel clues to the mediocre plot and just teach those jabronies a lesson. Is it a great video game? Absolutely not, but if you eat, sleep and breathe WWE, it's a decent way to pass the time leading up to WrestleMania.- Modojo

Had Defiant Development created a more full-featured experience and sold it for $0.99-$4.99, we may have proclaimed it the dungeon crawler to beat all dungeon crawlers, at least on mobile. As it stands, this game's a missed opportunity, and we doubt it'll make it into our play list even a week from now.- Modojo

If you really have an inexhaustible appetite for both kittens and auto-runners, you'll get a lot more out of the game than most, although we still feel that the pricing is too step given the gameplay on offer, as well as the additional currency in-app purchase store. It's a blast for a time, just don't expect it to set your world on fire.- Modojo

The problem is that it gets bogged down by the different freemium features that you see in most free to play apps. The game also requires an Internet connection and many people may not want to use there data up to play this.- Modojo

Astro Boy Dash is free-to-play, so anime and endless runner fans won't lose anything by giving it a try. With that said, it really would be a much better game if it had more accurate controls, and a slower pace. Quite simply, Astro's in need of a post-release tune-up.- Modojo

There is nothing particularly wrong with Worm vs Birds per se, just that it struggles to justify its place on the App Store amongst the likes of Angry Birds, as well as the dozens of extremely competent games that the genre flagship spawned.- Modojo

This would be OK had Journey to Hell delivered high quality action, but sloppy execution ultimately derailed what could have been one of the finest shoot-em-ups on the App Store. There's hope for an update, but for now, this game transports users to virtual Hell of a different kind.- Modojo

Flick Champions World Edition certainly captures the spirit of the moment, and offers a decent selection of sports, although there's a mixed bag of quality to be found in the individual events. The progression system is neat though and offers up plenty of replay value, assuming you limit yourself to the more competently realized disciplines.- Modojo

Unfortunately, you have to have addictive play to match the pretty graphics, and we couldn't muster much interest in Gorilla Gondola to make it a go to favorite. Pass this one by.- Modojo

It may only set you back a dollar, but when you consider the feast of gaming available on the App Store for the same price, it's just a little too opportunistic for our tastes.- Modojo

What it can never simulate of course is the rush of a win, and what you're left with is a rather depressing experience: a true simulator of our bleak economic times where no-one can afford to do much that's real anyway.- Modojo

In its current state, the game fails to thrill, but if you're in search of a bloody beat-em-up, this average title satisfies on the most basic level.- Modojo

Jet Run: City Defender is another endless runner game that doesn't do much to stand out from the crowd. It has solid graphics, but the gameplay is much the same that you would find in any other runner gamer, you are still avoiding obstacles as you move around the map.- Modojo

There's fun to be had, no question, but we doubt After Burner Climax will remain in your must-play list for long unless your goal is to master Score Attack and dominate the leaderboard. Sadly, this port doesn't meet the high standards of its console counterpart.- Modojo

Had Sega simply bumped up the price and included everything in one shot, Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed would've been just as well received as its console counterpart. Instead, due to an unfair currency system and technical hiccups, it loses control.- Modojo

There's a spark of something brilliant in Castle Champions, but between a clumsy and frustrating interface and a lackluster tutorial, we suspect many will give up before coming close to unearthing its charms.- Modojo

Despite a presentation that's right up Ravenous Games' alley, Random Runners gets nowhere fast due to its punishing level design and two-tier reward system. Hardcore gamers may feel right at home here, but others may want to stick to old-school platformers that give them a better chance at success. Ravenous' own League of Evil series certainly comes to mind.- Modojo

What we're left with then is a game that looks fantastic, and has a sprinkling of strategy in the wider game, but is unashamedly built around extracting money from players first and foremost. Those with a great deal of patience - or a great deal of money - won't be bothered by these problems, but we found the monetization to be overbearing, turning the game into a spreadsheet that's as expensive as it is pretty. Unless you have deep pockets, there's simply not enough gameplay here.- Modojo

Problem is, Tons of Guns is just too basic for its own good. Being unable to move makes each fight unfair, especially the toughest ones, while the aforementioned aiming controls are a big no. Not a terrible game, but there are better shooters available.- Modojo

rComplex as a whole, sadly, misses the mark. We like the unique art style and attention paid to the narrative, but the actual game is too unforgiving to enjoy, especially compared to the best titles in the "running" sub genre. There's still hope this could turn out OK, but for now, you should spend your money elsewhere.- Modojo

Sim City Build It is a strange mishmash of free-to-play trappings, resource management, and other oddities that don't necessarily make sense within the context of the game as a franchise or even as a stand-alone app. Pass on it and choose something much meatier to spend your time with.- Modojo

In fairness to Die Hard, the game does - awkward character modeling and animation aside - at least function and do what it sets out to do. It's not the best runner though, and it's certainly not the best shooter, and the combination of the two in this instance is rather slow and dull. But it works for however much time you're prepared to give to it.- Modojo
