Piggy Aventure has a good production values, but with an sub-average and unchallenging level design, the game is finished in two hours and does not appeal for more.

Offering a simple and original game mechanic, and underpinned by a quality production and lenghty lifespan, Where's the Water is a worthy challenger to the classics of the genre. If you like puzzle games, take the plunge.

Monsters Ate My Condo is a game that's undeniably fun and entertaining, and one that further benefits from a high calibre production. However, its peculiar gameworld and the assault of flashy visual effects are likely to put off a few players. It's an experience worth trying.

Shadowgun is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful games on the App Store, and without question the one that most fully exploits its graphical resources, yet the experience lacks depth, preventing the overall experience from being excellent. Nevertheless, it remains a great stress reliever and deserves attention, if only to savour its technical prowess.

Squids emerges as a turn-based strategy game that delivers on many aspects, but it isn't flawless. The game is unquestionably a beautiful audio/visual experience, but sadly too short to allow it to be savoured as it ought to.

Dark Meadow is an adventure game that delivers a brawny horror experience packed with exceptional graphics and atmosphere, but one that sins as a result of flawed pacing and redundant nature. It's therefore difficult to recommend it, particularly given its high price.

If you're looking for a platform game packed with personality and hooked on great ideas, give Cordy a try.

Happy Hills is a good puzzle title that doesn't revolutionise its genre but will offer some pleasant hours of play to fans, provided they're not looking for too strong a challenge.

Aside from an old-skool difficulty level that is exacerbated by touchscreen controls that are understandably less responsive than a keyboard or joystick, the iOS version of Another World is flawless. You'll find in it all of the quality of the original: exceptional atmosphere, surprisingly contemporary gameplay, and a successful platform/adventure mix.

A game of two halves, both highly accomplished in terms of production and crammed full of content, but also tricky to experience on iPhone and offering very little in terms of gameplay variety. Fans of the first game will love this, but others may feel considerably different.

Starfox 64 3DS is a space shooter that is both complex and accessible. The series' arrival on Nintendo's latest handheld is great news but the new visual elements and the double gameplay prove to be little more than small details in a remake that is short of big surprises.

Placing us this time in the shoes of a racing team manager, Kairsoft has succeeded in creating a good management game that follows in the steps of the developer's 'Story' series. Despite a pacing issue in the middle segment of the game, Grand Prix Story remains most enjoyable and captivating.

Nyx Quest isn't a bad game but its obvious flaws diminish the overall experience. Between an original yet poorly thought out gameplay, a distinct lack of variety, and limited content, we're forced to admit that the potential for fun is seriously undermined.

Meet Gameloft's great mistake: here is a game of exceptional quality, one that is beautiful while offering enjoyment and longevity, spoilt by a unscrupulous policy of fleecing the player. The approach is all too evident: you'll need to continually go through the checkout if you want to get the most out of the game. In short, a hell of a mess that will hopefully dissuade Gameloft from repeating the experience.

Save Yammi is a delightful surprise. Graphically too close to Cut the Rope yet nevertheless very accomplished and in possession of original gameplay, thereby distilling simple pleasures. The only criticism relates to its shortish lifespan and an accelerometer control method more suited to iPhone than iPad.

The new Cut the Rope isn't the eagerly awaited incredible follow-up. Short and with few innovations, it's more a large update of the current version than a true sequel. That said, the game's charming protagonist, superb production values and highly addictive concept make this an excellent, must-buy title.

Silent Ops is an action game that very much follows in the Gameloft mould, and therefore benefits from expected qualities but also suffers from flaws, namely AI problems and restrained playability, which aren't helped when combined with unspectacular visuals. At least the narrative remains engaging throughout, even if the game's characters lack charisma.

The latest Gameloft effort is only just acceptable. Although 9mm shoots straight with its multiplayer ability and interesting storyline, its other aspects are nowhere near as accurate. With limited graphics, playability issues and ridiculously short longevity, this game is a long way from being killer title material.

Offering a variety of challenges, Hungribles is an accomplished puzzle game that further benefits from an original visual treatment.

In many respects, Sword and Soldiers is an excellent game. You can criticise its blatant lack of originality and repetitive nature, but that doesn't stop it being a great deal of fun, while its wacky world will seduce many.

Although not a bad game, Block Breaker 3 Unlimited's graphical bias and general messy nature cost it a few points. However, if the game's universe doesn't put you off then you will find a tile breaker that's fun, original and particularly comprehensive.

A surprising game on several aspects that suffers only from its choice of aesthetics, the high difficulty of some levels, and its relatively short length. Nevertheless, Feed me Oil remains an appealing and innovative title for fans of physical puzzlers.

An action game that features the game mode made famous in the 5th installment of the franchise. Nevertheless, and however much I wanted to like it, an average game completion time and meager content that cannot be deleted contribute to making this game not much fun. With that being said, it is visually stunning and provides a good preview of what can be graphically expected from the upcoming installment on the 3DS. Let's hope that it impresses us more.

Sonic is back on track, setting a new standard for kart-based games on iPhone and iPad. Even if its audio/visual package is a long way from the current leading examples on iPhone, the game is well polished and balanced, resulting in great single- and multiplayer fun.

Very limited content and clumsy controls make The Sims 3 a disappointing 3DS launch title. Nevertheless, there is a true Sims experience here, and one that is boosted by the clever use of the StreetPass function.

Ankama's first iPhone game, Dofus Battle, is a success: based on a tower defense concept, the game cleverly distances itself from the competition courtesy of a very solid narrative, honed gameplay and unique visual style.

Order and Chaos Online collects all the basics of heroic-fantasy MMORPG and brings them to iPhone. Technically and graphically very impressive, the game suffers from the need of a wifi connection to play and a lack of high level content like dungeons and real PVP. If Gameloft can quickly and regularly bring new content to the game, the iPhone will have its "World of Warcraft".

At times confusing and minimalist in its graphical interface, Football Manager Handheld 2011 is still a very deep game. But its price and low accessibility make FMH 2011 difficult to recommend to anyone but fans of the series.

Boasting a polished execution and a tried and tested gameplay, Air Penguin will definitely entertain you for a few hours. We can only criticize it for its perfectible handling and rather short length.

Dead or Alive : Dimensions is a strong fighting game on Nintendo 3DS. While not comparable with Capcom's Street Fighter in terms of graphics, 3D or gameplay, its huge content will undoubtedly delight fans of the franchise.

With its intuitive but very demanding gameplay, eBoo is a little App Store jewel. The polished graphics and strong humour throughout ensure a charming game which, with regular updates, could become a must-have on iPhone.

The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time 3D is the best thing that could have happened to the Nintendo 3DS and its lack of hit titles. Epic, fascinating and unique in its genre, this remake is probably one of the best 3DS games of the year.

Hills of Glory: WWII extends the castle defense concept of Babel Rising and introduces new game depth through various unlockable hero characters. But it's a shame that you'll have to play a long time or use in-app purchases to access them.

Backstab isn't a bad game, but it's not the hit that was excepted. Full of promise - and actually packing plenty of content and a lengthy storyline - the game is hindered by unpolished development that leaves the experience with notable bugs.
