    • 60 Critic Score
    Bubble Witch Saga 2 remains a fun and polished Puzzle Bobble-alike puzzler, but its random reward system and blatant IAP-milking structure prove a little tough to stomach.

    • 60 Critic Score
    A fleeting pleasure, Panda Picnic shows freemium can sometimes mean forgettable.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dirac starts out brightly, but the further you get into it, the more you realise that it can't quite follow up that initial interest.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A cleanly presented auto-runner that's a little too slow off the mark.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A strange, if sadly under-developed twirl-'em-up that fails to exploit the potential at its intriguing core.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A perfectly playable climbing game, A Moon For The Sky doesn't do enough to make itself stand out from the crowd.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Tehra: Dark Warrior is a visual triumph, but the gameplay is as skimpy as the main character's clothing.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Spiral Episode 1 is a passable adventure game that calls to mind the story-led JRPGs of the late '90s, but it doesn't offer a great deal of gameplay meat beyond a reasonably fresh battle system.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Adds some ideas to typical Breakout-style arcade fare, but forgets to bring along excitement and colour.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's Burn the Rope again, but this time with a bumped-up price point. Only grab if you don't own a mobile device.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Drop the Chicken looks good and has some interesting puzzles, but technical foibles and awkwardness of the reward system stop it from taking flight.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you're up for another round of card battling fare, or want to experience the genre with a Star Wars skin, then go for your life, but Star Wars: Assault Team is otherwise rather forgettable.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A gorgeous looking game that's never quite as good as you hoped it was going to be, Last Inua is engaging, but not always entertaining.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Imprecise controls and a lack of lasting challenge hamper this otherwise perfectly adequate translation of the sport it's named after.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Blissfull is a neat, clever and challenging puzzler that simply doesn't go far enough to appeal to a broader audience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    What little game there is here is pretty enjoyable, but Here Be Monsters HD is a lot less than the sum of its potential parts.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Heli Hell doesn't have the poise of a bullet hell game, and the clumsiness it replaces it with makes it a bit of a slog.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Farming Simulator 2012 is slow, repetitive, ugly, and dull. But that doesn't mean it's not a relaxing and often addictive little diversion, too.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    In an odd twist, the monetization in Brave Furries is actually more interesting than the puzzles themselves.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While there's nothing overtly wrong with it, Beeing is a fairly underwhelming addition to the seemingly endless list of cutesy casual games on iOS.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Whilst it has a few good ideas, Tiny Troopers isn't interesting enough to hold your attention for very long.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Ghosts of Memories has some nice ideas, but they're not as well implemented as those in its inspiration.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Stupid, glitteringly bright, and a little bit broken, WWE WrestleFest still manages to capture the slapdash drama and violent hilarity of the ring.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Brilliantly presented, and with some great ideas about asynchronous multiplayer, Sky Gnomes doesn't quite have the gaming chops to back up all of its clever concepts.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Too similar to the fluffy one's previous outings, Battle Bears -1 consists of overly familiar, repetetive gameplay in a sterile setting.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A laudably fresh physics puzzler, albeit one with deep-rooted problems.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Infantile visuals and a few issues where the game mishandles information detract from an otherwise decent brainteaser collection for grown-ups.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It doesn't reinvent the motorbike wheel, but Trial Xtreme 2 Winter Edition provides more petrol-fuelled hi-jinks for fans of previous games. We just can't shake the feeling that it would have worked better as a paid-for expansion to the existing Trial Xtreme 2 game.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Admittedly loyal to the band's latest release, Gorillaz: Escape to Plastic Beach is a scatterbrained affair that doesn't deliver in terms of gameplay.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's about a million miles away from being the Citizen Kane of iOS game but whatever the hell Clear Vision is, it's kind of okay by us.
