Pirate's Treasure is definitely one of the best twin-stick shooter available on App Store, but it suffers from the same negative aspects of other similar titles, and so it's repetitive and pretty flat all around.

Angry Birds has been a huge hit on the App Store, so it's pretty understandable that other developers wish to follow in its footsteps. The problem is Floop doesn't shine like Rovio Mobile's title: the controls are often inaccurate and it's less challenging, giving you the chance to complete too much levels in just a few seconds.

Pro Zombie Soccer is an action game based on a different approach to the genre of Tower's Defense. The game is funny and intense, the touch controls works very well and the variety is guaranteed by the different kind of enemies; the only big problem is that it lasts just about 2 hours.

Prequel of Solomon's Keep, in Solomon's Boneyard it's possible to use 7 little wizards, against a young Solomon Dark and his malefic creatures. The wizards attack the enemies with different kind of power, in an endless horde-mode; every character has a personal strategy, so variety and fun is guaranted.

Wispin is a nice "survival" action game, with a lot of different enemies to kill. The tilt controls don't seem to be accurate like the touch ones, while the presence of a health bar instead of a single life saves us from frustration.

Full of humour and action, Plunderland is a successfull example of simple mechanics implemented in a really good way. Every flaw will be fixed by the forthcoming update, with new levels and game modes. At the beginning it's not so easy to say why Plunderland is so special, but once you are at the helm it will be really hard to come back on dry land.

Hammer of Thor is a great first entry in the Rimelands series. Thanks to its charming dice combat system and the articulated skill tree, it is without any doubt one of the most enjoyable RPGs on the App Store. However, the game greatly stumbles in its storytelling, boring and full of clichés, while the adventure is too much linear and there are very few secondary missions.

ChuChu Rocket! for iPhone and iPod Touch is in some ways better than the original (thanks to the touch controls), but the lack of an online multiplayer mode is really deprecable.

Eternal Legacy brings a combat system which is classic and works well, impressive graphics and a very dense and long story. Of course it would have been better with a more original and genuine style, as well as a major depth of the characters and a deeper plot. But for just 5€ iPhone users can enjoy a game which is, together with Chaos Rings, one of the best JRPG's on the App Store.

With a mission-based structure, Virtual City ask the player to address practical issues in different cities. The result is an interesting title, with some problems concerning the interface.

BB 3D is an interesting "first person boxing" game, with reactive controls and good animations; however, it's not really a boxe simulator, but just a fun way to hurt monsters with an iPhone or iPod Touch. If you liked "Punch Out", give it a try.

Cave has succeeded in the attempt to create its first original game for iPhone and iPod Touch. The combat system is pretty different from any other twin-stick shooter on the App Store, while the frantic and caotic battles require you to move continuously, avoiding bullets and targeting enemies. Unfortunately, the high difficulty of the game could scare players that are not so tenacious, and the large amount of enemies, bullets and explosions on the screen will strain your iDevice to the limit.

Carcassonne is an amazing classic board game and this version for iPhone is his successfully translation. A solid online multiplayer, gameplay very close to the original game and a single player mode make it a valuable purchase.

Given the technical quality and the excellent matchmaking, Archetype is definitely worth a try for all FPS fans out there. The controls are great, the action is fluid and there is a good number of well-balanced weapons. The matches via Wi-Fi work very well and we experienced very few latency problems. Unfortunately, you can only play team deathmatch on five maps, so the game becomes repetitive very soon.

Game Dev Story is certainly one of the best simulation games on the App Store to date. Sadly it's not really optimized for iPhone and it lacks Game Center support or any other social feature. But it has several good irons in the fire, and the mix of humour and completeness recalls some classics like Bullfrog's Theme Hospital. Well, come to think of it, it's so comprehensive that it would deserve to be released on PC.

Some great graphics and an excellent gameplay can't hide the lack of content of Reckless Racing, a game that simply won't last enough. More courses and some kind of structure in the single and multiplayer would really have changed everything.

Real Racing 2 is not only the best realistic racing game on the App Store; it is also the best realistic racing game on every handeld console ever, setting a new benchmark for the genre in mobile gaming.

Death Worm tries to be more various than Super Mega Worm with a lot of irons in the fire, more than 30 different enemies and an interesting upgrading system. The game has some issues with the camera, but the forthcoming update should fix it and adds a new Survival mode. Yes, the visuals are impressive and there's a lot of stuff to play with, but the 8-bit style and the humour of Super Mega Worm make it more fun and enjoyable. Hopefully, the rivalry between them will force the developers to improve and enlarge the games with the next updates.

Ferrari: the Race Experience, waiting for Gran Turismo 5, is a good racing game based on realistic phisic and simulative gameplay; thanks to all the glamor that only Ferrari can give with its cars, and the budget price, the graphic problems can be easly overcome. So, for a PS3 fan of racing games in abstinence, it's highly suggested.

Blade Kitten is a controversial platform / action game, with some strenghts (Kit can do almost everything, from climbing the walls to fight with a flying sword) and some flaws (the level design is mediocre, the combat system is simplistic and there are some minor bugs). With its nineteen levels, the game will entertain you for a few hours.

Good script and visual style makes up for the lack of variety in Costume Quest and the adorable characters and villains are intriguing enough to appeal players into clearing the game. Turns based encounters are dull and repetitive although you can customize your characters through costumes and stamps, but they are just the main issue of the game. Double Fine released an enjoyable game for a cheap price and we hope for a sequel, perhaps next Halloween or even earlier.

Dimps Corporation had the not-so-easy task to release a sequel without making a remake out of it, keeping it trustful to the original game design while adding new features. As a result, Sonic 4 has its ups and downs and does not stand the top quality of the Mega Drive age Sonic. Nevertheless, Sonic 4: Episode 1 is much more "Sonic" than the latest entries in the franchise, a must-have for the hedgehog's fans and all those unlucky players who never ran in those fancy red shoes.

Earthworm Jim has not aged very much and this excellent remake still shows the timeless awesomeness of this character and his weird adventures. The game itself has quite aged actually and some features and mechanics make the experience more challenging than it should be. Nevertheless, Earthworm Jim HD is an enjoyable 2D platform game and a little bit of videogame history, a chance for newcomers to enjoy one of the best games back in the Sega Genesis age.

The concept here is actually quite intriguing, as such PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is a very neat arcade game. However, without mentioning the cheap visuals, the general game design is repetitive and frustrating, not really linked to simple control scheme and ideas such as these. It takes just a few minutes to realize PixelJunk Racers 2nd Lap is more about luck than skills, quite a negative feature for an arcade racing game.

This is not your usual cheap downlodable game, Aqua Panic's level design is excellent and the gameplay is smart and fun, focusing on strategy and reactions. In spite of being quite frustrating in the last stages, Aqua Panic challenge is what lovers of the genre want, especially when brought by such a gorgeous and colorful visual. It might not be innovative, but it is certainly a reccomended puzzle-game.

If you miss the good ol' times of Marble Madness and Monkey Ball, look no further. HamsterBall is an enjoyable game with dozens of excellent tracks and different game modes. It's fun and engaging but not flawless: visual style can be awkward at times and physics doesn't really always work like it should. However, for such a low price those are just minor flaws. And let's face it, hamsters are cute.

Soldner-X 2: Final Prototype is a rather classic shooter, which bases its appeal on those elements that fans of the genre know better: upgradeable weapons, huge bosses, nice levels and a large number of enemies who do nothing but shoot at us. Though its solid gameplay, however, Final Prototype lacks of original ideas and it's way too short.

DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue</strong> is no doubt more of the same stuff but it's a more of the same we like because it's damn fun. To make things crystal clear, if you enjoyed the previous installment you will also love DeathSpank: Thongs of Virtue regardless of dejavu feelings, but if you didn't go crazy about the franchise before, you will not change your mind. The overall quality is just the same, excellent as much as cheap: a solid, lengthy 6-8 hours adventure, tad harder than before but even more fun.
