    Despite appearances, Card Dungeon is a lot more than just the iOS version of Card Hunter.

    A bright and pretty brilliant retro shooter.

    This remake will struggle to appeal to new players or nostalgics with its obtuse puzzles and budget presentation.

    Micro Machines is a neat little racing game which offers plenty of content and rewards to keep you interested.

    Full of Stars is may have a few issues, but its choice soundtrack, beautiful visuals, and fluid gameplay really makes the game sing.

    A thick and entertaining mobile MOBA that's probably the best of the bunch.

    Inked is a unique puzzle game that’s at its best when you pause and marvel at the beautiful hand-drawn world around you. It’s not meant to be played through in a single sitting, as puzzles, while varied, do tend to get tiring after a long gaming streak. It’s best enjoyed a chapter or two at a time, though that’s not to say it’s not engaging, because reveling in the stirring musical score alone is already well worth your time.

    Desta: The Memories Between is a dodgeball-like turn-based strategy game set in personal dreams where you really need to plan each move.

    Pilgrims is a charming and humorous adventure game that offers tons of creative puzzles that can be solved in multiple ways.

    While it may lack the depth of some other racers on the App Store, Table Top Racing has enough gusto and playability to make it a winner.

    A little light on true 'classics' and over-reliant on shooters but excellently converted to PSP, which should at least delight the old-skool crowd.

    The Lego game series finds a new lease of life as Lego Batman 2 pushes the content ,quality, and quantity.

    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a well put-together tribute to survival horror games of yesteryear, but some underdeveloped mechanics hold Forgotten Memories back from greatness.

    This good-looking homage to the Donkey Kong is a fine addition to the endless-runner genre, but don't go expecting any daring innovation to accompany those lush graphics.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite its lack of depth and a myriad of minor flaws, Command & Conquer: Red Alert succeeds in its objective of accessible real-time strategy with good controls and even better graphics.

    New gameplay touches make Guitar Hero relevant on iPhone, even if the lack of multiplayer and single-player setup are less than ideal.

    It has its moments, but Solar Flux gets frustrating a little too quickly.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Joust Legend does get a tad repetitive, but the crunchy combat is entertaining enough to make the game worthy of a purchase.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The best PSP football sim to date.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A huge thrill-a-minute adventure, with satisfying combat, and big boss fights. Just don't expect the old Metroidvania formula.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's another engrossing slice of portable football management, but this still isn't anything like the full Football Manager experience we should be getting by now.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A by-the-numbers expansion of an underwhelming role-playing mechanic, Monster Hunter Freedom 2 unfortunately has little new and worthwhile to check out beyond an impressive visual presentation.

    Much like its predecessors, WWE Smackdown Vs Raw 2009 possesses plenty of breadth but precious little depth. A fun but dated take on the sports-entertainment franchise.

    It's a little buggy, and a little repetitive, but if you put the time in you'll find a bombastic game that fits nicely onto the Vita.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Packed full of collectibles, replay value, instantly accessible fun and oozing with charm and character, there really isn't a better candidate for a PS Vita title that everyone must own.

    Splinter Cell: Conviction's fiddly controls and technical quirks spoil an otherwise pacy and entertaining action-stealth game.

    Zenless Zone Zero is a stunning work of art that boasts stylish visuals, lofi vibes, and insanely satisfying combat. Dull HDD woes aside, what makes it shine even more in my opinion are the little details - much like that Bangboo that tried (by god, it tried) to transform into a warrior but couldn't. This just goes to show that while this highly anticipated ARPG might just be the next big thing, it also hasn't lost its heart - and that alone makes it worth the wait.

    Front Mission may not pack a full house of tactical depth, but that doesn't prevent it from dealing an easy and enjoyable introduction to the genre.

    Despite biting off far more than it can chew, Thrillville provides an enjoyable – if somewhat limited – ride.
    • 72 Metascore

    A brilliantly built piece of platforming action, Raccoon Rising is definitely worth a look, even if you've never felt the need to fling an animal up a tree.
