    It might be cute, but Oh Hi! Octopi is tedious, finicky, and almost entirely incomprehensible
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    An unexceptional endless racer that's competent enough for a few minutes busywork but far from the best the App Store has to offer.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Whether it's stealth, driving or shooting, the game feels limited and unengaging, is hampered by unresponsive controls and completely lacks the necessary polish of a modern production.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The Uncertain gets off to a poor start in its first episode, thanks to poor writing, uninspired puzzles, and a wonky camera.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A dull, repetitive, and not very clever game of managing and destroying a country.
    • 48 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    There might be a good game somewhere here, but Little Amazon feels far too cynical to recommend.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    We're positive you'll want to avoid MGS Portable Ops Plus: a lacklustre single-player mode, unfriendly interface, and minimal new content make it comprehensively inferior to its predecessor.

    Noble Nutlings tries to achieve that elusive Angry Birds-style charm and simplicity, but ends up being frustrating, expensive, and simply rather joyless.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A nicely presented physics-based platformer made utterly infuriating by erratic controls and unavoidable death.
    • 43 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Muddled handling that confuses simulation steering with arcade speed makes MotoGP 2010 a disappointment not only for its lack of features, but for its gameplay as well.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    With no real link to the series of old, and no gameplay of its own to speak of, James Pond in the Deathly Shadows is the kind of non-event that you're best off ignoring.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A decent enough puzzling sequel that's ruined by an overbearing and unpleasant payment system, Where's My Water? 2 is a soggy mess.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Confused in almost every regard, No Gravity is a space combat that game that's just no fun.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Runaway: A Twist of Fate is a typical Pendulo experience - shoddy puzzle design and cringeworthy comedy - wrapped up in a bloated, bug-ridden app.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    About as shameless as it gets, Blitz Brigade: Rival Tactics takes all the ideas of Clash Royale while completely ignoring what made it great.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Third Blade looks the part but the pretty visuals are merely a façade to cover up some painfully uninspiring gameplay and an in-app purchase system which practically forces you to dig deep in your pockets to advance.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The kind of concept that should be winning a gold award. Instead, it’s too keen on getting you to buy gold, and its other shortcomings are many.

    • 40 Critic Score
    Don't let the visuals fool you - Marvel Avengers Academy is an example of free to play at it's worst. And, if that's not enough to put you off, the dialogue absolutely will.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Paper Jumper certainly has a weird, quirky charm, but doesn't have the gameplay or the longevity to back it up.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Dull and repetitive, MAYDAY! takes all the fun out of what should be an exciting scenario.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A poor twist on the endless climber that somehow makes things even more simplistic and frustrating.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Simplistic in the extreme, D-Day 1597 quickly runs out of fun or interest.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    What was a great console game almost 20 years ago simply doesn't work on a touchscreen.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Astro Boy Dash is a sub-par endless running game that does a disservice to one of manga's most beloved heroes.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Sand Flame is a sluggish, unattractive, and just plain bland third-person shooter with grind-heavy combat and a wearisome IAP model.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Like 99% of the games in Breezy Leaf's genre, you'll download it, play it, get confused, get frustrated, and delete it.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Let's Fish! Hooked On is not the fishing game you are looking for, on account of its glitchy, repetitive play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Heavy Fire: Black Arms 3D is the sequel that no one asked for. If you're a huge fan of shooting wave after wave of lifeless terrorist, you still won't want to play this game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Too short, too simple, too easy. This 'My First Castlevania' game is cute and charming, but there's not enough in this hotel to warrant staying the night
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A broken, not particularly interesting game. There are better arcade racers on mobile, so go play those instead.
