    Robot Gladi8tor cleverly expands on the Infinity Blade blueprint with FPS freedom and stunning presentation, but it's not quite as polished as Chair Entertainment's offerings.

    Freeze is a simple and rather drab-looking game, but its tactile physics-based gameplay and imaginative level design lifts it above the humdrum.

    Although it's limited in scope and replayability, Haunt the House: Terrortown is enjoyable and charming enough to make you forgive its shortcomings.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A cracking head-to-head strategy game, full of hard choices and brutal interaction. It could really use a patch, though.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright, engaging arcade game with enough zip to keep anyone entertained for a good long while.

    A slight and lovely puzzler, Breath of Light won't appeal to everyone, but if you like it you'll probably love it.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Fun, accessible and gloriously evocative of the 40k universe, but far too obviously a PC original.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    In Too Deep is a focused start for this promising mini-series, but never really gets out of third-gear.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A little more Candy Crush then classic Bejeweled, but still as addictive and shiny as ever.

    • 70 Critic Score
    What Putty Pals offers that few others do is the sort of couch co-op experience that can have you in fits of giggles one minute and punching the air with satisfaction the next. The Switch could do with a lot more of that sort of thing.

    Squad Busters lives up to the hype as a much faster-paced game than some of Supercell's other offerings. It won't draw in any mobile gaming sceptics, but for Supercell fans and existing mobile gamers this is a worthy addition to the developer's catalogue.

    If you're not a fan of the original, you'd be best to give this muddled revamp a miss.

    World's End Club brings an anime game to Apple Arcade, which is not seen very often. Its story is confusing, in a good way, and compelling enough to keep you playing until you find out what's going on, but this may be a turn off for gamers who are looking for more action.

    Layton's Mystery Journey may be a big investment, but if you're a fan of the games or love solving puzzles in general this'll be well worth the money.

    Equal parts homage to Pokemon and fan-service to Rick and Morty aficionados, this one is well worth a look.

    Great action and excellent multiplayer modes make Renegade Squadron an enjoyable experience, even if the short single-player mode and substandard visuals keep it from reaching its full potential.

    Well polished, looks great, and plays well, Overwatch is a great shooter on Switch, let down by loot box mechanics and a lack of a decent progression or reward system.

    • 60 Critic Score
    A clone of the PS2 version down to the last detail – except the one that actually matters.

    Ice Age Village isn't an awful build-'em-up, but it's severely marred by a lack of character and an absence of social features.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fun but lightweight shooter that sets out to recreate the thrills of an arcade light gun game for your iOS device.

    • 70 Critic Score
    This feels a bit retro, but still holds up as a solid dungeon crawler.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Gore splattered and over the top, Desert Zombie: Last Stand is an enjoyable, clumsy waste of a couple of hours.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    AdvenChewers is a surprisingly open and adventurous casual platformer built from otherwise familiar components.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Mulaka is a striking and interesting adventure with a few small let-downs.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite a handful of issues, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light is an enthralling adventure with great action and killer cooperative multiplayer - just stay away from the unstable iPad version.

    Transformers Legends is a card-battler. You know how these play by now, so the only question is: do you want want that features Transformers?
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid port of a solid game, but if you don't have the time to put into it, Heroes of Might and Magic III HD can feel a little flat.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Mighty Switch Force 2 is well worth a punt, with puzzle-platforming that will hold your attention from start to end.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright and surprisingly deep card game that'll keep you going for a good long while.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's fun and challenging, and there's a lot of content, but for all of that, Pirate Legends TD doesn't add much to the tower defence genre.
