Despite the huge effort that's obviously gone into the graphics and the cutscenes, Beowulf's gameplay never really come to life.

MapleStory M is a competent port of the 2D side scrolling MMO but issues with a lack of challenge and navigation around the world hold it back from being an enjoyable experience.

Pyramids is a clever puzzler at times, but more often than not it's too leaden to let you fully appreciating what it has to offer.

Evony: The King's Return offers various ways to get your supplies and duke it out with enemies and real-world players. As mentioned, the puzzles add a unique element that is both fun and rewarding, and is a nice change of pace from the usual. Overall, it's a decent game in a classic genre that should offer enough satisfaction.

Shamelessly derivative and lacking likeable characters and an interesting storyline, The Jim & Frank Mysteries: Blood River Files is a well-intended but ultimately disappointing puzzle adventure.

Torn between the two princes, Prince of Persia: The Shadow and the Flame can never quite find its own identity. It's fun, but it's flawed too.

Worms 4 updates the ancient formula in all the ways you might expect on mobile, but technical woes and streamlining hamper the all important multiplayer.

It's a fresh idea but somehow the block dropping antics of Art Style: KUBOS don't live up to its potential.

Guardians of the Galaxy has at least remained consistent throughout the series, it's just a shame it didn't end on a bang but rather a whimper.

If you're into MMA you'll get a kick out of this but the frustrating and random combat mechanics will be off-putting to others.

Another week, another take on Clash of Clans. This one looks fantastic, but at the cost of performance, adding a little more gameplay depth but never breaking the mould.

Fast, fun, but ultimately familiar, I Am Vegend feels like a plate of tasty but lukewarm leftovers.

A solid Puzzle & Dragons copy that lacks that game's refinement and ability to ensnare you.

The flying pig motif is easy to get behind for a little while, but once it wears off there's nothing left but ground up snout and spare ribs.

Resisting the action-packed role-playing adventure awaiting you in Alien Syndrome is futile. While not terribly innovative, it's a solid title with flaws that can easily be overlooked in favour of a good time.

A slightly jumbled mix of ideas, Kapsula is fun, but it never manages to really get going.

Nanostray 2 looks gorgeous and is eminently playable, but sadly it lacks imagination and becomes disappointingly repetitive all too quickly.

Braveland does a lot of things perfectly adequately, and it's sometimes pretty fun, but that's not really enough to make it stand out.

Horde of Heroes features outstanding presentation, but that's one of the very few aspects of it that makes it stand apart from the crowd of match-3 games available already.

A game of matching and murdering. It doesn't do much new, but it does enough that if you're a genre diehard it's worth a gander.

Gravity Duck Islands is a feature-packed sequel, but it doesn't address the real problem with the original game.

If you're looking for some Game & Watch action, Retro Pocket will be just the thing you need. Otherwise, it's a fairly average collection of mini-games.

Fans of hardcore shooters will find a lot to like here, but there are too many omissions to make The DRM Death Ray Manta a must-buy.

Aurora Feint 3 gives you some idea of the potential for the RPG match-three fantasy series on iPad, but there's little meat on the bones as yet.

Angry Birds Epic is a fun, streamlined, and surprisingly deep RPG, but a dearth of variety and a wealth of in-app purchases will turn off genre junkies.

A great visual style and a whole heap of retro charm can't quite lift Recess Riot to the top of the playground pecking order.

Episode 2 isn't as well written or sharply plotted as the pilot, and your choices feel more hollow than ever. Telltale's got its work cut out if it wants to restore the season's energy.

An interesting idea in a solid package, Draw Slasher doesn't quite have the skills to really entice you in for more.
