It may look sweet and innocent, but this match-three puzzler is anything but when it comes to IAPs. The tactless begging for cash results in a product that's very poor value for money.

A slightly lacklustre adventure game. There might be something here for fans of the TV show, but it won't be very much.

A poor relation of its bombastic console kin, Hell Yeah! Pocket Inferno is worthy of a minute or two of attention, but nothing more.

A promising twist on the endless runner genre, but a lack of variety and an awful ad system spoil things.

It looks lovely, but sadly Greedy Grub is as avaricious as its title suggests. Only the very patient - or wealthy - should bother.

Puzzle Fighter is a grind-filled, boring puzzle game that feels like a dinosaur compared to modern titles.

A tired-feeling game in a sloppy new set of clothes, M.U.L.E. Returns is difficult to love.

A game that asks you to collect musical notes to activate a portal while using cobras to avoid colored dots from trapping you inside a triangle is every bit as confounding as it sounds.

This new version of Hungry Giraffe is a shadow of its former self on account of some in-app purchase horrors. Grab the PS minis version instead.

A side-scrolling adventure based on a great book, with platforms, fighting and puzzles to negotiate. Some levels are fun, as is the touchscreen alethiometer, but a few good puzzles aside it's nowhere near as good as it should have been.

Pocket God: Ooga Jump is a reasonably competent take on Doodle Jump, but flat gameplay and a remarkably stingy currency system limit its already modest potential.

An initially amusingly brash arcade effort that quickly becomes a bit boring, and pales beside a superior contemporary.

A misjudged sequel that mistakes quantity for quality.

Provides the essential functionality you'd expect of a boardgame adaptation, but absolutely no frills at all and only limited quantities of fun.

Visually speaking, Catball Eats it All is an interesting mashup of surreal and expressionist art styles. Unfortunately, the all-important gameplay doesn't do the graphics justice.

A flat, unremarkable strategy game that does little to stir the grey matter, AntiSquad doesn't do enough to really interest you.

A gore-splattered ode to the light-gun titles of yesteryear, Zombie Crisis 3D provides modest fun in short doses but gets dragged down by repetitive gameplay and a lacklustre presentation.

Well-designed characters and some neat ideas are wasted on a slightly wonky tower-defence game.

While it has some decent intentions, the LGBT trappings on Pridefest only go skin deep.

A clunky, frustratingly limited arcade football experience that doesn't live up to the classic football games it clearly wants to emulate.

Disney Magic Kingdoms is the very worst of F2P, but with the fine polish and occassional quality of a premium release.

Pursuit of Light has a clever idea at its core, but it fizzles out due to poor execution and unfair mechanics.

An interesting idea executed in a rather conservative manner. It’s hard no matter what your level of football knowledge is, but it's best reserved for the staunch footie fan.

First off, The Croods is extremely slow to get going. Secondly, though Rovio has added a little bit of thought here, it's not sufficient to elevate The Croods above the overcrowded freemium building masses.

A few minor twists to the formula aren't quite enough to set this frustrating endless jumper apart.

A distinct average and oddly passionless collection of touchscreen mini-games.

While it has occasional bright moments, Smash Bandits just isn't interesting enough to hold your attention for long.

While it's a great port of the engine, Beben III doesn't have the controls to recommend it as a game.
