    Be prepared for a tough but rewarding challenge with Defenders & Dragons, one that emerges from a deceptively simple tug of war setup.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Part-racer, part-side-scrolling shooter, Delta-V Racing offers an impressive amount of excitement and challenge, and it can be played using just a single finger.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Yet another tile-slider, but one that manages to do something a bit different. Engaging, if a bit complicated for its own good at times.

    It might start out a little sluggishly, but when Anomaly Defenders reveals the full extent of its strategy, you can't help but be sucked in.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A shiny and sharp racer that gets the meat of the genre right, Reckless Racing 3 is well worth some attention.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    If you're okay with making your own fun, and delight in recounting homespun stories, then Terraria is the game for you.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Creative new modes and a great set of features don't just keep Infinity Field from being a copycat, they make it a superior twin-stick shooter.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An exciting, accessible role-playing game that does away with most of the fluff that bogs down the genre while retaining the depth that fans adore.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Another fine racing game from Vector Unit, filled with modes and great tracks. But it's often too stuffy and serious for its own good.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Monsters Ate My Birthday Cake is a funny and charming puzzle collection, with lots of secrets to uncover, that's only let down by some finicky controls.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright and entertaining adventure game that never gets bogged down in strange ideas.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Despite a disjointed Campaign mode, Sky Gamblers: Cold War provides more slick dogfighting action with a greater range of military toys to play with.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Hector Ep2 is more welcoming for newcomers, without losing the sharp wit, funny jokes, and tough puzzles that marked it out in the first place.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An adrenaline fuelled heart-pounder, Bridge Constructor Stunts is a worthy addition to Headup Games’ series.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A seriously tough but tactile physics platformer that will delight and frustrate in almost equal measure.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Lollipop 3: Eggs of Doom is smashing fun, though the experience cools off as quickly as breakfast left on the table.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    In a genre as packed to the gills as the match-three puzzler, Piyo Blocks 2 stands out by doing the simple things extraordinarily well.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Streets of Rage 2 is a well-crafted iPhone port, capturing the original gameplay well and offering Bluetooth multiplayer to boot.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Tempered by minor control quirks, Beneath a Steel Sky remains as entertaining as it did 15 years ago, galvanising the adventure gaming resurgence on iPhone.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Today Liberty City Stories is breaking new ground again by bringing that experience to mobile for the first time.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An attractive and vast racing simulator that largely holds its own against the Real Racing series, but which requires an awful lot of hard work (or expenditure) to make any progress with.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A welcome addition to the Dragon Ball Z franchise that's sure to have you screaming in anger and excitement.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Smart, slick, and seriously well made. Housemarque does it again.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Super Little Acorns 3D Turbo is another lovely platformer to add to your 3DS eShop collection.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    FireWhip takes time and dedication to learn, but once you grasp it this is a sharp, compulsive little arcade blast.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An innovative collection of Breakout-themed mini-games, Nervous Brickdown is a well-designed and beautifully realised slice of DS pocket gaming.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    While it does suffer from some technical frustrations, Vita is the best place to play Nuclear Throne outside of PC.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    DERE Vengeance could have easily become just another standard platformer with its 2D style and straightforward controls, but it is so much more than that. After that second level, everything gets turned up to eleven. The puzzles are a fantastic challenge, the atmosphere keeps you in such suspense, and the story will keep your attention until the very end.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    New mechanics and infectious humour make this a solid entry in a safe, assured series of games.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    First-rate conversion of two excellent games that, individually, lose a little of their spark on PSP, although nothing that significantly dulls the overall experience.
