    Despite the game's relatively short playtime, there was an abundance of evidence to back up that yes, Little Nightmares is perfect on mobile. In fact, I would go as far as to say I can’t imagine it being better on consoles. The intimacy of the experience that mobile brings to Six’s monolithic struggles amplifies the experience, and if you were a fan the first time you played, or have any interest in experiencing this indie darling, you should definitely download this fantastic port.

    A charming and playable physics-based stunt racer with a number of neat little touches, though 1968's largely excellent level design occasionally throws up some frustration.

    TMNT: Shredder's Revenge is a side-scrolling Netflix exclusive that harkens back to the good ol' days of beat 'em ups and Turtle Power. The short bite-sized lengths of each stage are ideal for pick-up-and-play mobile gamers - just make sure that your internet connection is up to the task if you're planning on playing with a friend.

    Graphically gorgeous and showcasing remarkable depth, Ferrari Challenge is truly a thinking man's racing game. It's regrettable that online play wasn't incorporated, but then there's always the sequel.

    The menu system and inventory aren't intuitive, but fortunately it's a doddle to drive a mech and lay waste to every piece of machinery you see.

    If you are someone who likes these challenging, grid-based puzzles and can see where to place the path, this is another quality one that you can start playing through! I do quite enjoy the bits of information about each element and how they are used in real life, adding learning to the puzzle game.
