    An oxymoronic retro update of Alien Space, this is a visually appealing and engaging twin stick shooter that is unfortunately too similar to its predecessor to be considered a true great.

    Solid but uninspired: Diamond Digger Saga is a very well constructed match-3 with a twist, but that twist isn't big enough to tempt back people bored of Candy Crush and the like.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Lego The Lord of the Rings: The Video Game is fundamentally a good game based on a great licence, but it's let down by the squiffy port to Vita.

    • 70 Critic Score
    An enjoyable mashing together of shooter and runner, Strike Force Heroes: Extraction won't go down in history, but it'll keep you entertained for a while.

    • 70 Critic Score
    There might not be much depth to it, but as a quick-fire dice-rolling experience, there's a lot to like in Roll For It.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's lost some edge and coherence in transit, but Snuggle Truck's lighter tone is arguably a better fit for its blend of knockabout physics-based fun.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you're okay with seeing nothing new, you'll find CandyMeleon will while away a solid few hours of your time with its perfectly palatable sweetie action.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Offering five twists on its track-switching gameplay, Train Conductor 2: USA provides a quick and varied time management fix.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite an odd mission structure, Hunters: Episode One succeeds with solid, in-depth turn-based tactical gameplay.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A clever little word game, Lumicon could do with a few more features, but it's still an entertaining way to tax your brain.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid puzzler which is occasionally hampered by control issues and an over-reliance on trial and error gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There are a few problems with 21 Days, but if you can get past them, you'll find a decent, if frustrating, stealth game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Big Action Mega Fight! pens a love letter to the beat-'em-up genre. Then, it sets that letter on fire and rams it down your throat
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good-looking and smooth playing adaptation of a cracking card game, but of limited interest without online play.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A great little strategy title that lets you test your mettle against players from around the globe and friends alike, Outwitters is entertaining and deep enough to have you coming back for more.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Far from an Angry Birds clone, Pigs in Trees is a line-drawing action game with plenty of variety.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A light-hearted adventure that nearly hits Nintendo-style heights, but never quite manages to get there.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Doom Resurrection whets the appetite with hard-hitting action and pretty graphics, though is starved of any lasting value.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Easy to get into, but may have one thirsting for a bit more.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    eBoo's challenging controls add to the puzzler's allure.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Punch Kick Duck is a lovely 3D action beat 'em up with a unique rock-paper-scissors mechanic and adorable visuals. Its simple premise might just make you underestimate the game's difficulty, but if you're looking for a twist to your typical side-scrolling brawler, then a duck with a penchant for fisticuffs might just be your cup of tea.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A tough as nails mixture of two of the toughest genres out there. It's still a good deal of fun though.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An entertaining platformer with a decent chunk of content, Cordy 2 will keep you playing for a good while, but it doesn't bring anything new to the platform genre.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fun, inventive slide 'n' slash action game that doesn't get everything right, but stays true to the way of the ninja with satisfying combat and beautiful visuals.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Heist is a great slice of first-person bank-robbing action for smartphones, but its very brief length is a sore point.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A slight and lovely puzzler, Breath of Light won't appeal to everyone, but if you like it you'll probably love it.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid and entertaining platformer, Type:Rider has a few niggling problems, but it's still worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's a brilliant 2D fighter here, but a smartphone or a tablet isn't the best place to play it.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Wii U version remains the real definitive edition, but Rayman Legends still plays and looks great on Switch.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A hauntingly good extension of the original, Angry Birds Halloween delivers more of the same entertaining physics puzzle play.
