    Despite its very minor flaws, Monster Mayhem is one of the best tower defense games produced to date.

    I've had a ton of fun with Monster Dash, and there's really no other words to describe it other than just that: fun.

    Seventeen years after its initial release, Secret of Mana remains the gold standard Action RPG.

    Hardcore point and click adventure lovers will love this game, but with some of the difficulties in the touch controls and inability to backtrack to gather missed items, new point and click adventurers should not choose this as their first attempt at the genre.

    The developers should find the time to fiddle around with the difficulty, as that's the part that's holding this game back. Everything else, though, was definitely impressive.

    Aqua Moto Racing 2 didn't strike me as a breakthrough racing experience, but the balance of the game itself really impressed.

    Overlooking the fact that the game doesn't make any sense and is, at times, utterly ridiculous, Air Attack is a superb shooter.

    While imperfect, it's a great game and highly entertaining.

    The Asphalt series are getting old. That fact is quite evident in this review, and it just doesn't feel any different from Asphalt 5.

    This is just another attempt by a big company to cash in on name. This is an absolutely horrible game that should not be picked up at all costs.

    Dungeon Defenders has potential, and it's a really fun game; there's absolutely no doubt about that. But I would love to see an improved interface and controls-mind you, they're not bad, but not good either-along with some better graphics.

    Split/Second is certainly a nice change from the more pure sim style racers out there, but it's defining feature lacks legs for long-term enjoyment.

    In summary, if you want a dual-stick shooter, you can do a lot better than Pirate's Treasure.

    Corporate Fury is a fun take on the brawling formula with a very silly and crude premise.

    It really is sad that Splatterhouse did not receive wider recognition during its time, because it was a good game for its time. Hell, probably even a great one. However, really all side-scrolling beat-em-up games boil down to the same essential gameplay mechanics, and this game is those mechanics at their most basic.

    It doesn't feel quite 'finished' and the sheer frustration of trying to work with the controls precludes any real chance of having fun.

    Pro Zombie Soccer as a game is a must have experience. The controls, gameplay, and artwork are just over the top, making this casual game one of the more intriguing.

    Fans of dual-stick shooters, survival titles or Solomon's Keep will definitely want to pick this one up.

    The use of multitouch is also quite creative, and it works really well in this situation.
    • 84 Metascore

    If you enjoy fast-paced addictive gameplay, wacky cartoon visuals, or just plain having fun, I would recommend this game as a must have.

    Rogue Running looks the part, but sadly does not play it well.

    It's a great concept hindered by the lack of content and high price.

    Angry Birds has a lot going for it, but is fundamentally flawed in execution.

    While the game is clearly made with longtime Castlevania fans in mind, there is more than enough content for a newcomer to the series to get their feet wet and enjoy.

    Small annoyances aside, Rimelands: Hammer of Thor is simply one of the highest quality traditional role-playing game experiences available on the app store. It's tough as nails, but the combat have you coming back for more.

    But if you look past the pretty fluff and the shiny-ness of your new toy, you'll find that Infinity Blade is really just the same thing over and over again. BUT, that same thing over and over again is oddly appealing… somewhat like the "same thing over and over again" mechanism of Fruit Ninja, Flight Control, etc. And for that reason, there's really no other rating for this than the Must Have.

    For right now, it's nothing more than a bad first-person shooter.

    The point and click adventures that have too much dialogue do not appeal much to me, as I like to play my games and not read them; but I really did enjoy the story of Scarlett.

    Ultimately, Eternal Legacy by Gameloft is one of the most graphically pleasing RPG's on the appstore at the moment. It is a well made J-RPG that boasts umpteen hours of gameplay between the main quest and the side quests, even if those side quests are hard to find.
    • 76 Metascore

    But once you start to get frustrated, thwarted, and far into the career mode, your appeal to the game just doesn't last. It's a game with potential, but it needs some substantial updates to reach it.
