    Dark Odds
    Despite hauntingly beautiful graphics, the core of Dark Odds leaves much to be desired. It's choices are often shallow and circuitous, and the inability to revisit previous scenes without replaying the entire game makes multiple playthroughs a chore.

    Rocky Balboa
    Looks good, but over-complicated controls and needlessly lengthy bouts mar Rocky Balboa, making it a real test of stamina and patience.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Star Wars: Imperial Academy
    More flawed than fun, Star Wars: Imperial Academy is a mess of a shooter that fails to do justice to ngmoco's FPS track record or the Star Wars universe.

    Feed That Dragon
    A feast for dragons, but a pitiable spread for the rest of us. Tasty visuals and concept let down by poor implementation.
    • 51 Metascore

    Bird Mania 3D
    There simply isn't enough to do, especially for a 3DS game. Throw in poor dialogue and barely evident stereoscopic 3D effects, and Bird Mania 3D just isn't worth your time.

    Ridge Racer Accelerated
    A disappointing effort that manages to stall on nearly every count from lacklustre racing to limited content to technical issues preventing play.
    • 38 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Disney High School Musical 2: Work This Out!
    Like its stars, High School Musical 2 is pretty to begin with, but quickly becomes annoying and repetitive.

    Rambo - The Mobile Game
    Rambo: The Mobile Game may not be the worst game on the App Store, but it's still a lazy and expensive tie-in.

    Synesthetic
    This conceptually solid music-based tunnel racer gets it all wrong in the execution, with disorientating track layouts and dull gameplay.

    Ultraman Galaxy
    Grind-filled hands-off gameplay plus a licence with barely any traction in English speaking countries does not a good card battler make.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Air Race Speed
    A potentially fantastic futuristic racer that completely fails to get the controls right, and as a result becomes a real challenge to enjoy.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Marvel KAPOW!
    Lacking cohesion and decent collision detection, Marvel Kapow! fails to land a decent blow.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Dungeon Hearts Blitz
    Dungeon Hearts Blitz is just another Puzzle & Dragons clone - and not a particularly good one, at that.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Vertical Golf
    A sparse, clunky golf game with a twist that fails to add anything meaningfully new to the genre
    • 35 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Disney Wreck-It Ralph
    Just like Fix-It Felix, Wreck-It Ralph on 3DS is short, plain, and not a lot of fun to be around.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    BlitzKeep
    BlitzKeep is way more frustrating than fun.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Fairway Solitaire Blast
    An occasionally bright game that's beaten into submission by difficulty spikes and shouty IAPs.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Caroline's Working
    Luscious presentation and satisfying sounds do little to disguise an unimaginative and bland take on an already well-worn genre.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Johnny Kung Fu
    Novel and at times rather pretty, yet also banal and ugly, only die-hard fans of LCD games need take on this disappointing downloadable.
    • 33 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Pillowfight Girls
    Neither a fun trashy experience or a enjoyable casual game, Pillowfight Girls is a failure on many levels.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Wide Sky
    As gorgeous as it looks, and as clever as it sounds, Wide Sky plays like a mess.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    One Tap Desert Hero
    One Tap Desert Hero is a bit broken, but a far bigger issue is how tedious it becomes.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Death Come True
    Death Come True is a thriller devoid of tension, a comedy lacking in laughs, and a mystery that is unlikely to elicit more than a shrug.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Cake Mania
    While fun in short bursts, the DS version of Cake Mania lacks depth and overly repeats on you. Burp.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Karateka
    A pretty atmosphere and reliance on nostalgia don't make up for the simple gameplay, low amount of content, and buggy nature of this release.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Go Deliver - London
    A charmingly presented series of real-world fetch quests for your legs, sadly lacking focus and any real sense of reward for your efforts.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Drowning
    Without a strong grasp of the basics to make up for the improvements it tries and fails to implement, The Drowning is simply a boring shooter, with invasive IAPs, and so-so controls.
    • 42 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    One Piece: Romance Dawn
    A straight-up port of the PSP RPG with no efforts taken to improve the experience, Romance Dawn is not a journey many One Piece fans will want to take.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    GOAL 2014 - Football Manager
    A poorly constructed, shallow, and boring football management game that can't be saved by an underwhelming social element.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Blood Brothers
    For all of its attractive window dressing, Blood Brothers plays about as nicely as cardboard tastes.

    Spiritfarer
    The full beauty of Spiritfarer with all its management and social adventure fits neatly in your phone, just be prepared to do a lot of running back-and-forth. [Early Access Provisional Score = 90]
