Super Yum Yum Puzzle Adventures demonstrates it's harder than it looks to bring good mobile puzzle games to portable consoles.

Splinter Cell 3D is a great game, ported badly. Some subtle 3D can't make up for controller and camera issues, or glaring missing features.

A few decent individual events but as a package International Athletics is less Linford Christie and more tedious Tupperware party.

Puzzler Collection does exactly what it needs and no more – a host of puzzles wrapped up in a frustrating interface.

Despite some striking visuals, Etherborn carries little weight; it's ultimately fleeting in both gameplay memorability.

There's a bit of fun here, but Kitty Pops is a slowly deflating balloon.

Combat of Giants: Dinosaurs 3D has the foundations to be exciting, but fails to build on them, offering simplistic, repetitive action instead.

Linkin Park 8-Bit Rebellion! is a disappointment with thoroughly shallow, unappealing gameplay. Avoid unless you're a big fan.

Compelling for a while, eventually Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue Rescue Team casts a powerful sleep spell over the toughest of pokéfans.

Some excellent level design aside, the rope-drawing structure behind Save Yammi tends to frustrate more than it does inspire.

The Next Space is a great display of just how far the shmup genre has come, and is a particularly generic example from the '80s.

Dream Chamber's great noir-style setting is wasted on annoying mini-games, illogical puzzles, poor writing, and a story that goes absolutely nowhere.

Very much a case of style over substance, Legendary Heroes looks like an exciting action-RTS game, but plays like a freemium PowerPoint presentation.

Ratchet & Clank: QForce is good fun - on the PS3. This PS Vita port is incredibly shoddy and not worth your time.

Planet Work may have charm, but its repetitive vacuuming becomes a chore after just a few short levels.

DevilDark: The Fallen Kingdom is a passable hack 'n' slash, RPG-esque romp that is worth the price if you're willing to put up with some heavy grinding and an imbalanced in-app purchase system.

Flip Runner! has a slightly novel approach to the gravity-flipping mechanic seen elsewhere, but it's unremarkable in all other respects.

Muscle Run is an adequate arcade racer-cum-endless runner that isn't quite slick or balanced enough to warrant repeat play.

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

A by-the-numbers addition to the App Store, Zombie Bunnies does nothing to make itself stand out, and ends up another also-ran.

The licence promises so much but sadly Star Wars: Trench Run ends up clumsy, value-starved interpretation of one of cinema's most iconic scenes.

A rote, mechanical endless climber that lacks the tactile sophistication such a simple premise requires.

Captain America: The Winter Soldier is a predictably uninspired action RPG with too little strategic scope and a half-hearted multiplayer element tacked on.

A shallow experience that trades on its difficulty, Laser Hell is certainly a challenge, but it's never that much fun.

Billbong Surf Trip drowns in a flood of flaws including unintuitive controls, lack of instructions, and an erratic camera.

Crux: The Great Outdoors features precision climbing coupled with relaxing music and lovely visuals. It's a contradictory mix of sorts, which isn't my cup of tea - but if you can find a way to manage your expectations going into the game, then it might just be yours.

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

A lightweight, odd action game that never makes you feel part of the fun, Bloodstroke is too muddled to really recommend.
