    Fun and familiar - Brothers in Arms 2 opts for variety over freshness and largely succeeds in spite of its many minor shortcomings.

    Max Adventure doesn't try to reinvent the twin-stick shooter, instead providing a delightful experience fit for all the family.

    Not without its quirks, many of which are part and parcel of a ten-year old game, but the abundance of style and busy streets make Driver a continued success.

    A visually impressive point-and-click adventure, 1112 episode 3 continues the saga without offering too many answers. Despite all of its qualities, its high level of difficulty may limit the appeal.

    Modern day first-person shooters will feel weak after you give Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD a play, thanks to innovative gunplay that still holds its own today.

    It'll ask you to invest significant chunks of time into it, and if you get really serious about it you'll definitely want to splash out on a character or two, but Solstice Arena's top presentation and accessible tactical play make it worth the effort.

    Wonderfully excessive, but not quite as clever as it thinks it is.

    Sleep Attack TD's stage-spinning gameplay adds a dash of originality - and difficulty - to a solid tower defence game.

    New 'n' Tasty is charming, cheery, and has been carried over to Vita spectacularly despite some technical imperfections.

    If you're interested in story-driven games and cute character art, Burly Men at Sea demands to be played.

    There are some great moments here, but a few fussy ones that spoils things a little bit.

    A great distillation of stealth mechanics into a fun and engaging arcade score-chaser.

    This is a deliciously tactile, malleable game. One of its levels is full of more ideas than most games on the App Store can cram into their entire run time. Plus it's beautiful. So very, very beautiful. I can't stress enough how good Monument Valley 2 is. It builds on what came before - in a very real way, it's a sequel about sequels. And its story about legacy cements ustwo's own position as one of the greatest developers working on mobile.

    Octopath Traveler is a magnificent experience, but its story structure holds it back from being a truly amazing game.

    Land-a Panda boasts excellent visuals, a long-term challenge and engaging physics-based gameplay, only slightly undone by some minor control grievances

    Frustrating in all the right ways, this sophisticated head-scratcher is a must for puzzle nuts.
    • 83 Metascore

    Not immediately a perfect fit, 6th Planet's fusion of Lunar Lander style play with its collection of comic strips proves to be a winning formula in the long run.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Robokill is an engrossing hybrid RPG-shooter that calls to mind classics of both genres, but it never reaches the same heights of either.

    The most fun you'll ever have with an intergalactic crustacean, Crabitron's a ton of fun that can be shared with a nearby friend.

    Spiky-haired hero seeks action RPG with flawed character development mechanics covered up by gorgeous graphics and comprehensive gameplay. Would prefer a Final Fantasy VII fan.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A slick first-person hack-and-slasher that really benefits from some colourful and imaginative enemy design.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Clash of Heroes is a monstrous RPG with beautiful graphics; a suite of multiplayer modes; and some of the most smart and addictive battles around.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A beautiful little RPG, which is just as great on Vita.

    A few corners have been cut to facilitate the transition but Football Manager Handheld 2010 is a tactical feast for football fans.

    By limiting the number of units, and focusing on simple, explosive gameplay, iBomber Defense turns the tower defence genre into a more enjoyable spectacle.

    Online battles and loads of loot save Chronicles of Inotia 2 from errand-like missions and lackadaisical spirit of adventure.

    Very little has changed since the last instalment of Gameloft's arcade racing franchise, but Asphalt 7: Heat certainly isn't lacking when it comes to hot-rod action and stunning presentation.

    Fester Mudd is a funny game with smartly designed puzzles. You don't have to be a point-and-click nostalgist to love this game.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Deft controls and smart random level generation lead to one of the freshest endless-runners in some time.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Fun, challenging and atmospheric with plenty of replay value, but the lack of online multiplayer is puzzling.
