    • 74 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A classic example of a quality game almost ruined by ham-fisted free-to-play elements. If you don't mind regularly splashing cash though, then the core game can be a lot of fun.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A deeply ordinary endless-runner that frustrates due to its lovely artwork and promising dream world premise.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Pocket Legends Adventures has a solid RPG at its core, but it's wrapped up in painful amounts of grinding and waiting.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Gem Racers shows promise, but this stone could use a lot more polishing.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Forget about calling Ghostbusters. Call a priest to exorcise this game of its broken controls, repetitive missions, and lame driving sequences.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Spirit Camera is a nice concept but one that's a little too demanding to be easily enjoyed. It's full of neat spooks and tricks but there are far cheaper and better ways of getting your freak on.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A grind-heavy card battler, with high production values, and even higher costs if you want to play to a decent level.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    While it does have some nice ideas, TEC 3001 piles them on to quickly, and too haphazardly, to really recommend.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A lack of new ideas isn't always a bad thing, but Combat Arms: Zombies couples its undead fetish with broken controls and poor design.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dull and clumsy, Iron Man 3 feels more like a simulation of a slightly drunk jog than a superhero game.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    By turns sadistic and capricious, this twisted puzzler has its moments, but leaves a nasty aftertaste.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Dark Knight is a pale imitation of the Arkham games, with boring combat, cheap presentation, and dull missions. It works, but it never thrills.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Great in theory, Assassin's Creed Rearmed is awkward and plodding in execution.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    It might be ugly, stupid, and often unintentionally hilarious, but Die Hard is fun enough that for whatever brief period of your life you waste on it you won't mind.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Street Fighter 4: Champion Edition doesn't really work on mobile. One to give a miss for now.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Planting role-playing elements in the original set up, Fruit Juice Tycoon 2 is a game that never truly works as one package.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A simple, one note space simulator that gets very old, very fast, and fails to save itself from the yawning oblivion of the cosmos.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There's a decent enough game struggling to get emerge from Dragon Storm. It's just a shame that the developer doesn't seem to want you to find it.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Cubic Ninja tilts towards the bargain bin with awkward controls and maddeningly silly level design.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A retro remake with a real sadistic streak that fails to bring anything other than frustration and annoyance back with it.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Harvey Birdman, Attorney at Law flies in the face of habeus corpus, holding a funny animated series hostage to a smattering of bad jokes and non-existent gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A reasonably captivating casual puzzle premise squandered by poor pacing and monotonous level design.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Monty Python's Cow Tossing is a mediocre physics puzzle game that earns more points for style than substance.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Fire & Forget The Final Assault is a curiously flat and uninspired resurrection of a relatively obscure Amiga game that somehow fails to raise the pulse even a smidgen.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A casual puzzle game that's clinging so tightly onto the coattails of Angry Birds that it can't help but fall short.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    You'd be forgiven for mistaking Picross e2 for the original, so similar do they look. Here's hoping for something new in the next instalment
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    In trying to make a game based on the movie, they've ended up making a movie based on the movie. It's not as good as the real thing.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Devious Dungeon is a woefully simple RPG-platformer that quickly becomes about nothing more than grinding for money and levels.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite the optimistic title and sharp presentation, this weak Angry Birds-alike needs to be benched for relying on luck rather than any b-ball talent.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Surf's Up uses its licence well but flawed execution means it fails to get the pulses racing. Fans of the film can dive on in, but the rest of us will have more fun back on dry land.
