    Punishing: Gray Raven is a heck of a ride with its adrenaline-pumping combat and ultra-smooth graphics performance. You don’t need to scale a paywall to excel at this game, so it’s a must-download for any RPG fan. Plus, the units you pull actually have a healthy dose of husbandos for a change (yay!).

    Easily one of the best strategy games of recent years, and somehow even better on mobile. Its replayability is hampered by its story focus, and its chapter separation was unexpected, but gameplay-wise there's not a single fault.

    The three games that constitute Super Mario 3D All-Stars shine like a Power Star in 2020. Even with a bare minimum of sharpening up, they're brilliant games that are more than ready for a modern audience. Super Mario Galaxy, in particular, remains possibly the definitive 3D Mario game.

    A dark, strange, tough, and beautiful tactical RPG-cum-interactive story with one of the richest settings you could hope for. Banner Saga is an iOS game to savour.

    Like a sniper taking aim from out of nowhere, SOCOM: Tactical Strike sets sights on PSP and emerges as one of the year's best. Phenomenal visuals, tight tactical gameplay, and unparalleled multiplayer make this a must-have title.
