    Dragon Quest Smash/Grow
    Dragon Quest Smash/Grow is a worthy idle RPG with some engaging elements. But its initial promise of exciting Survivors-like action quickly falls apart. However, if you approach it from the perspective of it being a regular growth-focused casual RPG with plenty of more hardcore elements, you'll have fun. And both the visuals and audio have that familiar, nostalgia-infused Dragon Quest flavour.

    HYKE: Northern Light(s)
    Hyke: Northern Lights is an engaging 2D RPG about a witch searching for her mother. While gameplay can feel repetitive at times, the visually stunning environments and the ability to switch between 7 distinct witches make this little RPG one worth exploring.

    KASSO GAIDEN: Escape from the Skaterverse
    Kasso Gaiden doesn't feel like it is unique enough to stand out, but it's an interesting little game. I do wish the sound effects were mutable, as they sort of take away from the experience.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Subnautica: Below Zero
    Subnautica is a thrilling survival game set on a watery alien planet. With engaging survival combat and a beautiful world to explore, the only thing bringing this mobile port down is the autosave freeze issue.

    MOCHI-O
    Mochi-O is a charming action experience in which you battle hordes of enemies using a genetically modified hamster.

    Tomb Raider
    This Tomb Raider mobile port features all the action and suspense it's known for, combined with an intuitive touch control system.

    RAGE
    A feast for the eyes, RAGE doesn't make the most of its fun arcade action as it's missing some standard features.

    Quantum Legacy
    A beautiful on-rails shooter that delivers furious deep space combat on a presentational front. Sadly, its grasp for strategic action doesn't quite work and those underlying mechanics simply can't support its repetitive framework.

    Payback2
    In spite of its lack of coherency, Payback 2 HD is still an immensely entertaining experience.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Ninja Throw
    A solid puzzler which is occasionally hampered by control issues and an over-reliance on trial and error gameplay.

    Monkey Island Tales 5
    Tales 5 might not have the strongest puzzles, but it manages to close the story with humour and drama. It means this entire series will go down in Monkey Island history, performance issues aside.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Monkey Island Tales 4
    Darker and grittier than its cheery predecessors, but sets up the right tone for the finale. It continues the tradition of sharp dialogue and puzzles, but also shoddy performance.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Monkey Island Tales 3
    With a swashbuckling pace, slightly-absurdest humour and genius puzzles, Episode 3 proves a confident hump. Performance issues remain troubling, though.

    • 60 Critic Score
    Monkey Island Tales 2
    Spinner Cay is certainly the weakest instalment in the Tales series, but still holds its own with a good few hours of top jokes and puzzles. Horrible performance issues rear their ugly head too often for a strong recommendation.

    Monkey Island Tales 1
    Monkey Island fans can breathe a sigh of relief - Monkey Island Tales 1 HD is a confident continuation of the franchise with unfortunately ropey controls.

    iBlast Moki 2
    Everything a sequel should be, iBlast Moki 2 HD might be the best £1.99 you'll ever spend.

    Hamlet or the Last Game without MMORPG Features, Shaders and Product Placement
    One of the oddest games you'll ever come across, Hamlet replicates the adventure gaming formula of yesteryear with obtuse puzzles that makes for a annoyingly difficult gameplay.

    Greed Corp
    Attractive and slick strategy game with a huge single-player campaign and competitive gameplay.

    Frederic Resurrection of Music
    Despite (or perhaps because of) its deranged narrative, Frederic is a stylish confection that truly does justice to the poet of the piano.

    Forever Lost: Episode 1
    A bizarre and intriguing blend of ideas and styles, Forever Lost doesn't always manage to pull off its ambitious plans, but when it does it's pretty special.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Flick Champions
    Old skool as heck, Flick Champions HD is simple, fun, and addictive.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Farm Frenzy 3
    A tough mixture of time management and puzzle, Farm Frenzy 3 HD doesn't push the series significantly forward, but it's still good fun.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Eufloria
    Hardcore strategists will be disappointed by the lack of challenge, but casual players may warm to Eufloria HD's tranquil approach to commanding and conquering.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Espgaluda II
    Espaulga II HD looks stunning on the iPad, and is one of the best high-score chasing shooters available on the App Store.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Arknights: Endfield
    Arknight Endfield is a sci-fi RPG with engaging combat, gorgeous graphics, and a vast map to explore.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Empire Builder: Ancient Egypt
    A little too easy and restricted in terms of solutions, Empire Builders: Ancient Egypt is a perfectly playable economic strategy game, but lacks the character of the Build-a-Lot series.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Early Bird
    Early Bird HD is cheap, challenging fun for the Angry Birds set.
    • 89 Metascore

    DrawRace 2
    Sleek and immaculately-tuned, this racer offers an unparalleled driving experience on iPad.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Cubetastic
    Cubetastic offers challenging puzzle play that's enjoyable despite a wildly oscillating difficulty.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Chicken Balls
    Too random to be an Angry Birds killer, polish and original ideas help at least make Chicken Balls HD a contender.
