A solid pocket arcade. [Sept 2012, p.108]

A powerful and enjoyable photo editor. [Sept 2012, p.106]

Freakyforms comes alive only if you invest the time. Don't, and there's not much here besides sticking eyes on shapes and making them jump through hoops.

Solid enough to keep you playing for longer than you ought to, but the game looks and feels considerably cheaper than the price would suggest. [Aug 2012, p.103]

Moonites should definitely wait for A New Beginning. [Aug 2012, p.98]

The open-world omission is a massive blow, but inter-hero banter, co-op capering, and dozens of DC characters elevate this above the typical Lego tie-in. [Aug 2012, p.94]

A beautiful, sporadically fun action RPG, and a great showcase for the power of the 3DS. Sit down and play it, however, and you're in for an infuriating game. [Aug 2012, p.89]

It's not quite original or addictive enough to compete with the best in the casual genre, but this is a polished and fun enough game that's unlikely to be a purchase you regret. [July 2012, p.107]

There's no reason to choose this over the officially-endorsed Mario and Sonic alternative. [July 2012, p.99]

Short on charm and challenge. [July 2012, p.98]

A great idea for a puzzle game, with a cool minimal art style, but it's just stretched too thin. The baffling slowdown and useless mini-map only make it worse. [July 2012, p.92]

What's here does work up a good sweat. [June 2012, p.101]

More accomplished than you might expect, but lacking the depth needed for return visits after slogging through the lengthy campaign. [June 2012, p.92]

The sad fact is that it's simply too obtuse for its own good. [May 2012, p.105]

An unexceptional entry in a prolific series. [May 2012, p.99]

The ball-shooting itself is all-but-identical to the last game. [May 2012, p.98]

Treads on its predecessor's toes too many times to impress in its wake. [May 2012, p.93]

Criminally short. [May 2012, p.88]

A laudably unique twist on tower defence, but strategy soon devolves into a series of repetitive fights. [Apr 2012, p.109]

Unrefined and frequently maddening. [Apr 2012, p.107]

Although it rarely gets the pulse racing, it's still a decent pick-up if you're looking for some quickfire high-score challenges or simple dumb fun. [Apr 2012, p.99]

Championship-winning concept held back by a few lacklustre mechanics. [Apr 2012, p.91]

Championship-winning concept held back by a few lacklustre mechanics. [Apr 2012, p.91]

The feeling that it's all a bit slapdash never really goes away. [March 2012, p.107]

A pleasant fishing sim. [March 2012, p.101]

a little mindless, but still fun. [March 2012, p.101]

Pedestrian. [March 2012, p.100]

Plays like a second-rate attempt to rip off a series that's not enjoyed a distinguished recent past itself. [March 2012, p.99]
