    With all the sharpness and complexity of the original version, Into the Breach brings everything it had and more to Netflix Games. Great visuals and engaging gameplay bring you in while the presentation gives you a lot of options. Whether you're playing casually or intensely, you add as much newness and difficulty as you want to make for a worthwhile strategic experience.

    It's Crossy Road with a couple of extra layers of Disney charm and polish, and it's as good as that sounds.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great version of the now-ubiquitous game, this is definitely worth a bite, so long as you can stomach the price.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Perfection contains a solid central mechanic and it's nicely presented, but the unadorned slicing wears thin very quickly.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Violent and funny in most of the right places, Alive4ever Mini might just be another follower of the undead fashion, but it does what it sets out to do well enough that you can forgive the absence of new ideas in the game.

    A poor man's God of War that makes no apology for its fast and furious fighting gameplay. The perfect, blood-soaked introduction to the PSP Minis platform.

    Pokemon: Let's Go! has a lot of offer on the whole. It's family friendly and makes it easy to pick up with a pal, meaning that parents can jump on to help out their kids and leave when needed. It's also brimming with charm, character, and animations that you can't help smiling at. I've got no doubt you'll enjoy the game if you pick it up, but how long for depends on how much you loved the classic era of the Pokemon franchise.

    Geometry Wars: Galaxies triangulates arcade action, subtle depth, and intuitive controls for pure fun you'll return to remarkably regularly.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A game that does things differently. And while it doesn't always work out, it's still worth some of your precious time.

    As tough as it is fun, and with a brilliant soundtrack, CheeseMan is a fine slice of iOS platforming at its best.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Menus could be snappier and simpler, and there are too many systems at play to hook casual players, but those that do get the Kingdom Conquest bug will find a compelling multi-genre blend with high production values.

    Shadow Bug looks great, it plays brilliantly, and you're going to have a lot of fun slicing through it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A top strategy title for those that have a more casual interest in the genre, or for those that are put off by more complicated games of this ilk.

    As cute as it is infuriating, Nekosan rewards dedicated players with elegantly designed levels and one-more-go gameplay.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Friendship, family, and loss. These are all things we experience in life, but not many of us have a magical bracelet to help us. This is the story of Jesper and his journey to self-discovery and it's an enjoyable one, if a little slow in places.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A numerical puzzler with a fresh premise and beautifully contemplative presentation.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A marriage of new variety with classic action yields a worthwhile union.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A solidly presented, smartly designed construction-based puzzler that's easy to recommend.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Smoothly accessible and highly engaging strategy gaming, but lacks some key features.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A retro platformer that stands out from the crowds with its evocative presentation, exploration, and firm-but-fair controls.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A brilliantly addictive side-scrolling game that, whilst a little light on content, is well worth picking up.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Though it's a tad short, The Gardens Between is a beautiful puzzler with some wonderfully clever ideas.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    With polished presentation, responsive controls, and an entire universe of upgrades to explore, Asteroids Gunner successfully updates the classic concept and establishes itself as one of the finest twin-stick shooters on the App Store.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A gorgeous looking, surprisingly smart twist on RPG scrapping, Swap Heroes 2 is more of the same, but that's not really a bad thing.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A tightly paced, furiously addictive endless climber that plunders those arcade classics for more than just rose-tinted window dressing.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    First impressions count, and your first impression of Bug Princess 2 will probably be 'wow', closely followed by 'good lord', as you weave and blast through its glorious waves of hellish beasts.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An interesting and engaging puzzler, Dream of Pixels isn't revolutionary, but it's an enjoyable beast all the same.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Inner World is a charming and inventive game. It will appeal to ardent fans of mid-'90s point-and-click adventures. Clumsy translations, overlong conversations, and technical hitches prevent it from reaching greatness, though.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    With strong visuals and a tight touch, Vampire Rush is a successful marriage of the tower defence and hack and slash genres.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Just as polished and poised as you'd expect, Kingdom Rush: Frontiers continues the legacy of its predecessor without really adding anything new.
