    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A perfunctory twin-stick shooter that plays just fine, but fails to do anything of particular note.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An enjoyably frantic arcade collect-'em-up, Crazy Raider is just too slight an experience with too simple a combat system to warrant prolonged play.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dungeon Defenders never gets the opportunity to show off its creative gameplay due to a poorly designed interface.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A neat central idea, held together by some decent level design, Burger Cat is let down by some sloppy controls and a few bad decisions.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a solid idea here, but it might not keep you entertained for as long as you'd like.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a great puzzle game here, but Fright Heights loses itself too often in difficulty spikes and cruelty.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Doodle Kingdom doesn't deviate far from Doodle God's original formula, but the addition of fantasy elements and new sub-quests is entertaining.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Crash City Mayhem will make you pull a variety of faces, ranging from raised eyebrows, to indifference, to disappointment.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A surprisingly respectable brawler that sports the solid shell of a bona fide ninja turtle, but not the muscular legs.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fresh blend of several popular brews that has a bitter aftertaste. Keep an eye out for updates, though - this one deserves to do well but is currently far too unforgiving.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    HonorBound's restrictive free-to-play framework keeps its squad building mechanics from reaching their full potential.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A solid and often challenging puzzle game. Its simplistic mechanics aren't varied enough to sustain long-term interest, though.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dino Skater is a typical endless running game, but it has an extra kick of charm - like almost everything featuring dinosaurs.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Symmetrain is an efficient and novel casual puzzler, but the going is a little slow and the scenery is a little repetitive.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    When you're following the narrow path the designers expect you to walk down, Corpse Party is one of the scariest portable games you can buy. Yet, failure to do so demands you re-play massive chunks of content you've already seen, significantly diminishing its appeal.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Skyward is a basic arcade / endless climbing game with intrusive ads, but the overall experience is entertaining for a bit.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    One third rubbish and one third brilliance, The Sly Trilogy reminds us why the series is so much fun to play and why we forgot about it in the first place.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Kingdoms of Camelot: Battle for the North is a freemium city-builder with genuine slow-burn appeal and a nifty social element, but it may just too much of a slog for the average player.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A disappointing entry that proves itself incapable of overcoming the issues of its forebears - Warriors Orochi 4 is, simply put, a relic.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Clash of Clans with a jungle setting and a modern military theme. Jungle Heat isn't exactly innovative, then, but at least its developer does steal its ideas from the best and re-purposes them effectively.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An accessible, enjoyable online shooter that desperately needs more content to expand its appeal.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Pod Odyssey is a nice Lunar Lander homage, but heavy controls hamper the fun.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The main gameplay can be a little tiring over long periods of play, but Boom! Tanks is otherwise a compulsive game of simple tank combat.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Universe For Sale is a gorgeous visual novel-slash-point-and-click adventure with fantastic world-building and superb writing. The lack of mobile-optimised touch controls makes the gameplay itself incredibly frustrating though, so come for the visuals and stay for the story - if you can manage to tap your way from one chapter to the next.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Doctor Who: Legacy is a real treat for Whovians, and a satisfying but derivative RPG-puzzler for the rest of us.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A relatively fresh but extremely punishing take on the endless climber.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While it doesn't get the hidden object parts quite right, Hidden Runaway is still an interesting, if ultimately disappointing adventure.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Fast, fun, and frenetic, this match-three RPG needs a bit more polish to be recommended without reservation.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Best described as The Desert Megan Fox, 2XL TrophyLite Rally looks beautiful, handles well, but lacks variation, challenge and depth.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Yoo Sports! is a decent attempt to copy the Wii Sports template, but it fails to provide enough quality gameplay to encourage repeat play.
