    It's more of the same. For some, that's going to be enough. But if you're looking for innovation in Angry Birds Star Wars II, you're going to be a little disappointed.

    Full of blood and death, Minigore 2: Zombies is a brief blast of gibbet-fuelled fun.

    It might lack a little when it comes to grace, but there's a crunching brawler here that's well worth checking out.

    Bouncy and fun yet inescapably facile, Hackycat wins our favour through an abundance of rewards and an irrepressible joie de vivre.

    Clearly inspired by Trials HD, Urban Trial Freestyle doesn't do enough to make it memorable, but the physics-racing is nevertheless fun, while it lasts.

    Flick Golf is a challenging take on the sport and a welcome – if occasionally frustrating – addition to the ball-flicking sub-genre.

    Call of Snakes sounds ridiculous but is actually quite fun. Good depth despite the overly-simplistic three-star level system.
    • 64 Metascore

    Fast paced and addictive, Gold Diggers is an arcade blast that ticks the right boxes.

    There's a lot to like in Astra, and if you're into leaping around planets then you're going to enjoy it.

    A top down, arena-based shooter with more to it than first meets the eye. Gamelion nail the basics of combat, throws dozens of enemies at you at once, and give you a solid chunk of weapons with which to wipe them out.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solidly constructed, surprisingly addictive take on the endless-running genre. With dogs.

    No matter how hard you try, it's pretty damn difficult to dislike Deploy and Destroy, especially if you're a fan of shooting things.

    Burn the Rope is an original and taxing accelerometer-driven puzzler, though its flames are dampened slightly by a lack of adequate feedback.
    • 54 Metascore

    True to its DS roots, Wire Way is a big game, which while offering hours of alien-flicking fun, also suffers somewhat from its scale.
    • 79 Metascore

    Despite one or two control inadequacies, Blackout represents a creditable attempt at offering up something new to the match-three puzzle genre.
    • 73 Metascore

    Those who previously complained about the title's lack of touch screen will be thoroughly satisfied this time around. Mind you, if you've played it already, there's not that much point grabbing it again. Despite the fact Max: The Curse of Brotherhood isn't a fantastic game, it is a great platformer/puzzler which does shine up nicely on the Switch.

    Despite a few irritating stages, this remains a blisteringly fast and entertaining Sonic outing.

    Despite the premise, and the look, Apples vs. Robots can be shockingly fun.
    • 74 Metascore

    An entertaining little puzzler, Be Together doesn't quite have the style or the ingenuity to be a must-buy.

    Utterly addictive in nature, 1000 Heroz's series of daily races is undoubtedly hard to put down, though working out the right path from the wrong one is even more difficult than in a bible parable.

    Hatoful Boyfriend is thoroughly recommended for fans of the genre, alongside anyone with a taste for the absurd looking for a new experience.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A simple and entertaining enough casual roguelike, Land Sliders doesn't have much meat on its bones, but that's fine.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A delightfully silly physics-puzzler that's slightly derivative but highly entertaining.

    It might not be the perfect fit for touchscreen devices, but Metal Slug 2 is still an awful lot of fun.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Unusual gameplay and rich theme help bring Vietnam to life, but repetition sets in sooner than it should.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent conclusion to a punishing roguelike trilogy that wisely takes some of the sting out of your numerous and inevitable deaths.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Night School Studios' top of the line writing takes steps to save what was an imperfect movie in this fine narrative-driven adventure.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Draw a Stickman: EPIC 2 might not be the hardest game to get to grips with, but it's still fun with an interesting mechanic.
    • 72 Metascore

    All in all, if you love your social media, then this could certainly have you adding the app to your daily routine, especially if Nintendo incorporates it into its upcoming NX system.

    Dragon Ball Legends might be one of the best licensed anime games on mobile, as well as one of the best looking. One of the better anime time wasters on mobile.
