Fahrenheit was ambitious and innovative in 2005, but ten years later it's just clunky and tedious.

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.

Devouring Stars' main crime is that it's boring, and that's unforgivable on the App Store.

Disney continues the trend of crap movie games with this poorly made and cynically produced retread of a game we're all very sick of.

Like the home console version of Injustice: Gods Among Us? Want to unlock some trinkets for it and don't mind trudging through a repetitive fighter with minimal skill requirements? Then, this is for you... weirdo.

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

An occasionally bright game that's beaten into submission by difficulty spikes and shouty IAPs.

Playing it doesn't make you feel like a superhero or a supervillian, and the game makes unsatisfying use of the DS' technology. Lack of variety and an insistence on turgid fetch-and-carry missions seals this as one to avoid.

The iOS port of Liberation Maiden is a little prettier than the 3DS original, but the same faults remain firmly in place - joined by some irritating touchscreen controls.

A decent range of great value, genuine arcade classics neutered by poorly implemented controls.

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.

A good idea executed poorly, Capcom Arcade offers little worthwhile gameplay.

A dull, shockingly cynical waste of time, which is all about grinding for upgrades, and almost nothing about skill or strategy.

An abstract, atmospheric exploration adventure near-ruined by a breathtakingly ill-conceived iOS port.

Lacking much of the tone that made the movies great, Ghostbusters is about as fun as being forced to slowly trudge through slime, and being overcharged for the pleasure of doing so at a faster rate.

Gloomy Hollow manages to live up to its name, but not in a good way.

We're positive you'll want to avoid MGS Portable Ops Plus: a lacklustre single-player mode, unfriendly interface, and minimal new content make it comprehensively inferior to its predecessor.

A considerable improvement on the first DS iteration, but still not the definitive Harvest Moon.

Typically, Crayola Treasure Adventures is a far better colouring-book than it is a game. There's very little range, and the mini-games won't hold your kids' attention for long, but if you're sick of losing crayons down the back of the couch this may be for you.

Repetitive action and a largely vacuous storyline do nothing to disguise the fact that DJ Rivals is essentially an advert for its Facebook-based big brother Nightclub City.

Buggy and unresponsive, NBA 2K12 isn't worth the money.

Like a dodgy pilot episode, Stargate SG1: Unleashed is badly written, poorly paced, and really quite dull.

A dull little game that makes being a deity feel decidedly average, Fury of the Gods isn't worth your time.

It's cute, but Hose it Down is an uninventive puzzler, filled with dumb design decisions and a paywall as soon as it really gets going.

An uninteresting matching puzzler that's slotted into a structure big on monotony, Cradle of Rome demonstrates game concepts shouldn't be built in a day.

Somewhere within Earn to Die 2 are the ingredients for some exhilarating ‘one more go' jeopardy-based gameplay, but the recipe used here is downright repulsive.

Brakes are for Losers has some nice ideas, but the package is one that's going to leave you frustrated more often than not.

Bladeslinger's combat is a mess, the controls are clunky, the story is dull, and the whole thing is hobbled by monetisation. Avoid.
