Tesla Effect is a low budget game with many flaws but it's also a great adventure made of memorable characters, great lines and funny moments.

Extremely different from Super Mario Kart, this is the first episode that truly rivals it in terms of quality. It has a brilliant track design, amazing graphics and a surprising game balance. Mario Kart 8 is the Super Mario Galaxy of the series: a demonstration that Nintendo can still produce magic.

Sayonara Umihara Kawase is weird, slow and quite frustrating but it's also a true display of smart level design and physics. Too bad it's short and quite expensive as well.

Wayward Souls is another hit from Rocketcat Games: a demanding, frustrating but wonderfully executed roguelike that stands out as one of the best mobile games of the year.

We could consider Super Time Force the evolution of run and gun games. We could and we do it.

Sir, You Are Being Hunted has long long dead times due to the rogue-like structure and to some design problem. It's an interesting game, but not a very good one.

Sportsfriends is a hilarious party game, but only under the perfect circumstances. Two players is not enough for most of the games, while J.S. Joust can't shine at all in a small room packed with only 4 players.

It's a quirky and original adventure, with many neat touches and lovely graphics and sounds: it never reaches a true climax, but it will make you smile from beginning to end.

Metal Slug Defense is a nice take on the tower defense genre, thanks to a simple but compelling gameplay, lots of missions and excellent 2D graphics.

If you like the dating simulation genre, Always Remember Me is the right choice for you.

A colorful platform game, fun and entertaining for kids and grownups.

After completing it, Bound by Flame is quite an underwhelming game. Spiders passes the first hours narrating a fascinating story in a complex environment, but in the end, the game is just too short to justify all the hype.

Shadow Fight 2 comes with some of the best animations ever seen on a mobile device, hundreds of moves and weapons to unlock. What a pity the game becomes very hard very fast, forcing you to grind or buy some IAPs.

For many players The Last Federation is a bit too complex, but this is its best feature for whom love the strategy games.

Stick it to the Man is a fun, enjoyable adventure, full of crazy characters and puzzles to solve.

We waited four months for this second episode, but the result is a compelling and excellently crafted adventure, which is also a better game than the first chapter. Sadly, you will see the credits roll after just an hour or so.

Swamp Attack is a simple but rather fun action shooter, with some funny graphics and lots of different monsters to kill.

The procedural concept behind Daylight is quite charming and the game is full of potential, but it fails to deliver.

Jane Jensen is back with a metaphysical thriller rich of good texts and locations. Malachi is a great character and its analysis of antiques and personalities are what makes Moebius: Empire Rising stand above many other adventures.

LEGO The Hobbit is not the weakest entry in TT Games franchise, but it feels like one of the less inspired and suffers from the very same weird pace of the movies is based upon. LEGO games really need to take a break for a bit.

War of the Vikings' lack of content and instability issues have compromised the overall game experience, definitively killed by the lag.

More expansion than sequel, Wargame: Red Dragon is a balanced experience enriched by naval battles and great single player scenarios.

The best games from the two episodes of Nes Remix could have been used to create a fantastic experience. Instead, Nes Remix 2 shows the same problems of the first one: an inconsistent selection of some wonderful masterpieces and some other totally forgettable products from the Nes era.

Kirby: Triple Deluxe is an fun and colorful platform. It's pretty easy but well tuned and never frustrating, filled with content, levels and hidden treasure. HAL Laboratory made use of depth in some unique and interesting ways. Too bad the last world is a bit of a let down.

There's no doubt that Leo's Fortune is one of the most interesting mobile games of the year so far. It's got a fantastic atmosphere, excellent graphics and sound, smooth touch controls and a good number of levels.

One of the worst games of the year combined with four excellent animated movies, Short Peace: Ranko Tsukigime's Longest Day is no doubt a mixed bag.

Child of Light is a simple but intense RPG hidden inside a marvelous fable.

The fifth episode is one of the best entries in the whole series. George and Nico are more charming than ever and almost everything feels right. Nevertheless it's a pity that many players had to play it split in two.

Using just a handful of shapes, Andrew Armstrong created a captivating and challenging game. Controls can get messy, but any boss is unique and fascinating.

Etrian Odyssey Untold is just an amazing remake: thanks to the new Story Mode and three different difficulties it will finally appeal to a wider audience, making both newcomers and veterans happy with tons of items, monsters and exploration.

Isolani is a solid, fun first person shooter, with excellent touch controls and smooth graphics. The game's a bit easy in the first episode, but becomes more challenging after that.

Finally, From Software manages to create a game on its own and not a lazy port. Dark Souls II is exactly the best way to play the masterpiece console gamers experienced a few weeks ago.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is a better game than the first episode, as it delivers some smooth, spectacular fights and nice sandbox. What a pity the camera is often hard to control.

The Elder Scrolls Online needs a lot of work to become a competitive entry in the MMO market because right now it really does not know what to be. Is it a co-operative TES? Is it a single player game? Is it a MMO? Every time we found something good in it we had something else spoiling all the fun, such as lack of features, polishing or common sense.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventures: All-Star Battle is not a perfect fighting game by any means and shows how inexperienced CyberConnect2 still is in that department. However, it's fun and bizarre as much as the series itself and it delivers tons of fan service by totally understanding its source material.

Hitman GO is not your ordinary mobile porting of a renowned franchise: instead of mocking the action of the console series, Square Enix decided to use Agent 47 skills in a sleek, clever and challenging strategic game.

Quotation forthcoming.

FTL on iPad is the same great experience, with an excellent interface and all the content of the PC version.

Although the really interesting basic idea, especially thanks to the fascinating mythological theme, the title of Dirigo Games is full of serious technical, structural and gameplay deficiencies, that make it a poor product.

The Blizzard free to play works extremely well on the iPad. It has several, small imperfections int he interface but it’s a must download.

FRACT OSC is a magic mix of music, puzzles and exploration.

Family Guy: The Quest for Stuff is a funny casual game, at least for a few minutes. Then it becomes an uninspiring, dull, linear, annoying freemium experience.

It has a good physics system but the technical aspect of the game is forgettable. And the gameplay modes are too few for a modern driving game.

A good platform with some value: passing away into videogames has never been so much fun as it is in Life Goes On.

It’s too expensive for its contents but the gameplay has several good improvements compared to FIFA 14.

Escape Goat 2 does not shine for originality, but is fun and works as an indie puzzle platform.

New players jumping aboard the A Realm Reborn train will find a huge game filled with content which will keep them busy for a very long time. The "next gen version" pretty much runs at high-end PC settings, which means something if you have been stuck with the PlayStation 3 client: the upgrade is simply gorgeous.

A Trials game that asks for luck instead of skill is a misstep, and the freemium formula makes it more unforgivable.

The idea of using math as the core of the gameplay works very good and keeps the experience fresh and enjoyable, even when you have to face the same enemy again and again in order to gain experience and unlock the other villains.

Nintendo Pocket Football Club is a charming, interesting but ultimately deeply flawed experience.

Destiny of Spirits is very peculiar and interesting at first, but it soon becomes too much repetitive and dull while in-app purchases feel like mandatory at times.

Loco Motors is a stylish and creative puzzler which however relies heavily on trial and error mechanics.

Warlock 2: The Exiled is Warlock: Master of the Arcane with a new mode and tuning. If you have liked the previous game, you will love this sequel… but only if you accept paying for something similar in many ways.

A Crooked Mile pulls everything together in a solid narrative that partially unveils the truth and find the right place for every character. Finally this episode introduces a memorable villain. This is the way to go, Bigby.

Mercenary Kings delivers a hardcore, compelling, sometimes frustrating action platform experience, packed with plenty of missions, weapons and enemies.

Age of Wonders III is a good comeback that only needs to be balanced to become perfect.

Monument Valley is a remarkable achievement in both artistic and game design. The only downside is that it's really too short.

Shattered Planet is an interesting action RPG roguelike game with a survival feel, full of contents to be explored.

Kinect Sports Rivals shows many evolutions on the technical side of Kinect, but still struggles to deliver a flawless experience, gamplay-wise. Across the six sports, however, a good amount of fun can be found.

Five big new scenarios are enough to make it a valuable product. But it could have been much better with some necessary refinements.

Boom Beach delivers a deeper experience than Clash of Clans, letting you control your troops during the attacks. The game is also very well done from a technical standpoint.

As a free game, Word Monsters is more than decent: however, it doesn’t take too long to see that it really doesn’t have much to offer.

A complex world to explore, packed with enemies and traps. The game design is consistent and controls work great here. But it gets tiring after few hours and it lacks true inspiration. Nevertheless it's an enjoyable ride.

This new Pac-Man is "just" a quite good game, but at the same time it is an old-style, almost-explorative 3D platform: a rarity, right now. A rarity, even in its averageness. If you like the genre, give it a try.

Joe Dever's Lone Wolf - Forest Hunt is an excellent new chapter of a fantastic adventure, packed with awesome graphics, a solid turn-based combat system and great narratives.

Ether One is an interesting first-person adventure that explores human mind and the causes of dementia in a very original way. Technically surprising, considering the low-budget nature of the title, it deserves to be tried, even if the slow pace could distance action-oriented players.

Surgeon Simulator on the iPad is mostly the same crazy, irritating and funny game that was on PC, with 2 more surgeries and a (if possible) worst control scheme.

A good action game, with plenty of missions and unlockables, but it suffers from some bad interface choices and mediocre controls.

Dynasty Warriors 8: Xtreme Legends is exactly what we expected from an extended version of the last episode in the series: some new characters, a new campaign and a few minor changes to the gameplay.

With Reaper of Souls, Blizzard concludes the journey started with the launch of Diablo III.

One Finger Death Punch delivers a fast, challenging, compelling combat experience in the simplest way possible.

Betrayer is a very interesting first person adventure, with several hardcore elements but also a lot of annoying things to deal with.

It has better graphics and more content than its predecessor, but also the same gameplay problems and way too much emphasis on IAPs: that’s why Flashout 2 feels a little bit disappointing, despite being a decent futuristic racer.

The Collectables is a mixed bag. On the one hand, the game's got some stunning graphics and lots of missions, on the other hand it's cumbersome when you have to move the team members individually.

Glorkian Warrior is a good arcade shooter that really stands out thanks to the hilarious humor and the vibrant art direction.

Two games and a good amount of extra, Final Fantasy X | X-2 HD Remaster is a good value for fans of the series and those who like jRPG games.

The PC version of Deus Ex: The Fall is a short, cumbersome, frustrating affair, also very simple in terms of graphics.

Hearthstone is a polished, stylish and friendly collectible card game which offers tons of fun and challenge at no cost. It's still not very balanced - and probably will never be - and it lacks a trading system, but Blizzard managed to appeal both newcomers and veterans to the genre.

The best additions in Towerfall Ascension are not the most advertised ones. The new Quest Mode is a nice diversion but of course the cornerstone of the experience remains the Versus Mode, with great new arenas and customizations.

Frantic, crazy, immediate and fun. Luftrausers is Vlambeer at its best, with well-tuned gameplay mechanics and the possibility to customize your plane before jumping into a rain of bullets. A perfect fit for Vita.

The Witch and the Hundred Knight is a good take on the action RPG genre but the narrative goes too far just for the sake of shocking players and ends up being too invasive, strangling down a gameplay with too many features to take care of.

If you're looking for a solid, rich and free tactical RPG experience for your iOS device, Lionheart Tactics is a must-have.

Even if it doesn’t break any new ground, Devious Dungeon is a simple yet solid action RPG which offers lots of content for its small price.

Mines of Mars is a nice mining adventure, packed with a good number of levels, secrets, unlockables and enemies.

Without a doubt, Professor Layton Vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney is a wonderful game, both in its story and in its gameplay, which represents the best of both sagas. An absolute must-own for the lovers of Layton and for those of Wright.

inFAMOUS: Second Son is a great start for Sucker Punch on Playstation 4. Gorgeous visuals and great combat mechanics, these are the best pros of the game.

Metal Gear Solid V: Ground Zeroes is in a nutshell what Metal Gear Solid is. Unfortunately this great content is just a small prologue of the next Phantom Pain that lasts only a few hours.
