The Thrill Cam is a majestic moment in gaming but it's the rock-solid driving model that ensures great universal enjoyment, albeit marred by technical gremlins and misguided GTA aspirations.

MiniSquadron successfully lands on the Minis runway carrying its trademark intense and engaging flight combat frolics but misses an opportunity to deliver a little more content-related freight.

A decent enough puzzling sequel that's ruined by an overbearing and unpleasant payment system, Where's My Water? 2 is a soggy mess.

Naruto: Path of the Ninja may star a sprightly yellow-haired youth, but its gameplay is old and tired. Even fans of the manga are going to have a hard time choking down this stale piece of gaming.

An entertaining, if unspectacular, mix of solo and multiplayer golf that simply isn't strong enough to warrant the constant in-app purchase demands.

While the original remains a classic, Samurai Shodown II for iOS is too glitchy and broken to really recommend.

Rayman Raving Rabbids 2 tries to seduce you with its quirky 3D visuals, but at its core this is just a bare-bones mini-game collection that can only sustain the briefest of relationships.

A disappointing effort that manages to stall on nearly every count from lacklustre racing to limited content to technical issues preventing play.

A messy control system that you're constantly having to fight against means The Other Brothers is a pale imitation of the games it's trying to copy.

It might be cute, but Oh Hi! Octopi is tedious, finicky, and almost entirely incomprehensible

It looks the business in screenshots, yet SpinCraft's half-decent 3D landscapes can't hide the tedious design and irritatingly floaty controls.

A capable game destroyed by inexcusable loading. Heavy petting has rarely been less appealing.

Sniper Elite by way of CSR. Kill Shot is dumb free to play fun, but don't expect anything truly ground breaking.

Iffy free-to-play model aside, Ultimate Sackboy is merely a competent runner that could use a lot more variety to keep things interesting. It's a beautiful-looking game but lacks much substance to keep me coming back. With future seasons and updates planned, this might improve, but for now, it remains okay.

You'll dislike the approach Ubisoft took to the presentation of Michael Jackson in the title, as well as the paltry number of songs on offer, but look past these issues and this is a great rhythm-action title that makes smart use of the Vita's touchscreen.

The Legend of Spyro trilogy finishes on a high note. It's imperfect, but highly enjoyable, lacking only polish and length.

A wonderful game that's battered into submission by an overbearing payment scheme, Fightback has the moves, but it uses them all wrongly.

With a bit of sprucing up here and there, Sumioni: Demon Arts could be a keeper. In its current form, there's still plenty to enjoy.

At times, Army Corps of Hell is an adrenaline rush of swift tactical fighting. It's also, however, incredibly repetitive and far too drawn out.

Poor handling and missing features make Race After 1977 feel too much like the dingy vehicles that roll across its post-apocalyptic landscape.

Minor improvements make Cake Mania 2 better than the original, but the difference is negligible. Lacking depth and issues with the touch controls make this casual treat a relatively tasteless affair.

Epic Mickey 2: The Power of Two might suit the kids, but it's too dull and fiddly for anyone else to truly enjoy.

Attractive presentation can't make up for a lack of substance - just like a real circus!

Third Blade looks the part but the pretty visuals are merely a façade to cover up some painfully uninspiring gameplay and an in-app purchase system which practically forces you to dig deep in your pockets to advance.

High Flyer Death Defyer provides nice fast-paced arcade action, though it does get repetitive after a while.

While it has an interesting central idea, Half-Inch Heist is more about frustration than it is fun.

A fairly standard endless-runner that only really stands out for its inspired visual style.

It has a few stand-out moments, but too often Dream Chaser puts a wall between you and your enjoyment.
