    Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin is a deep, enthralling game but the presence of some flawed elements mean it's not as good as the previous "Dawn of Sorrows."

    While it's still an incredibly entertaining game, the world has overtaken SolaRola ever so slightly, and stolen some of the vigour from its platforming.

    Jelly Cars 3 is an addictive combination of driving and physics-based platforming that manages to overcome one or two minor control issues.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    At its worst a little choppier than you may remember, at its best downright timeless. The port's not perfect, but this is still a great way to play two of PS2's best games on the move.

    New Little King's Story is a tale worth telling. A great real-time strategy / role-playing hybrid, now on the go.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A brilliant point-and-click adventure that's let down by its pointing and clicking, The Last Express is still worthy of your undivided attention.

    • 80 Critic Score
    A unique spin on the tried-and-tested match-three genre, Linkies looks stunning and plays great - as long as your hardware is up to the task, that is.

    As fresh today as it was 12 years ago, Munch’s Oddysee’s clever puzzles, likeable characters, and weird personality are a joy to experience. It’s a shame about the camera, though.

    It might not be the freshest skateboarding game out there, but you're going to enjoy the time you spend tricking around its levels.
