    Moon isn't revolutionary by any means but the overall quality of the graphics and action means this is a satisfying game that affirms the viability of the shooter genre, even on a portable.

    It doesn't quite have the sparkle of some of the other entries in the series, but jump to Medieval is still more than worthy of the Time Geeks stamp.

    Like Rosa herself, Blackwell 3: Convergence is a more confident and surefooted game. It's easily the best episode yet, but there are still improvements to make.

    Candies n' Curses is a perfect example of meshing together the old and the new. It's as old a concept as any we've seen recently on mobile, but it's presented in the most modern ways. If this was an arcade game from the era it's aping, then it'd be a hundred times harder, and less fun. Instead you get a game that's all about the balance. The balance between failure and success, retro and modern, control and madness. And where it matters, it gets each of those balancing acts just right.

    Hot Springs Story secures Kairosoft's position as the god of iPhone management gaming. Far too addictive for its own good.

    Quick and loveable, Beyond Gravity keeps the action as simple as its controls and benefits hugely from this deep and rich accessibility. Ultimately forgettable, perhaps, but the kind of quick-hitting thumb cocaine smartphones were made for.

    Another slice of exacting, unadorned tactical play from Shenandoah, Drive on Moscow doesn’t tinker much with Battle of the Bulge’s mechanics, but its new setting makes for an equally worthwhile challenge.
