    Gorgeous-looking Mario & Sonic goes for gold with multiplayer, despite stumbling across the finish line with a few lame events, the odd control issue and only moderately entertaining solo play.

    New Little King's Story is a tale worth telling. A great real-time strategy / role-playing hybrid, now on the go.

    More fried chicken than duck a l'orange in terms of sophistication, Cooking Mama 2 still manages to be a delicious distraction.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Unique in its tranquil style of gameplay, flOw's delightfully smooth experience is punctuated only by technical flaws related to its beautiful visual presentation.

    • 50 Critic Score
    Clash of Clans by way of Tatooine, by way of boredom. You probably don't need Star Wars: Commander in your life.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Free to play veterans will put up with the shenanigans Angry Birds Transformers tries to pull in the name of a quality shooter, but those just looking for a quick burst of fun may find the wait timers and slow progress distasteful.

    Nelke doesn't feel like a celebration of Atelier, but closer to a cash-in.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A dodgy script and some absurd puzzles dent the appeal of Secret Files 2: Puritas Cordis. Fans of the original game will lap this up, but everyone else should look elsewhere for their point-and-click fix.

    • 70 Critic Score
    New Puzzle Bobble adds just enough gameplay gimmicks to freshen up its well-worn bubble-matching gameplay.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Visually lush and easy to get into, Zenonia 5 has one big failing: it just doesn't do anything that hasn't been seen before. In-app purchases also upset the experience.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Divekick's ultra-basic approach is a revelation if you're looking to understand fighting games. And if you're prepared to look past the in-jokes found here, then this is an essential purchase.

    Gamelion shows it can make a fast-paced pseudo racing game with SpeedX 3D, but a paucity of content and experimentation will leave hardcore gamers cold.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's not quite up there with the best iOS has to offer, but Kung Fu Rabbit's still a fun, frisky little platformer with plenty of appeal.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Madden NFL 2007 is a solid annual update, but it lacks visual panache and touchscreen brilliance.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A promising if scruffy brawler with an ill-advised open world element tacked on, Corporate Fury is destined for cult status.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    While mastering B-Boy Beats is not without its annoyances, the sheer level of polish and an excellent soundtrack ensure that feet and fingers alike will be itching to face off against the next challenge.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Crimson Gem Saga only looks the part of a classic role-playing game and is actually a synthetic reproduction that lacks the glittering quality of the real thing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Alice has visual flair, but she's a vapid romp, with platforming gameplay weighed down by its puzzles rather than uplifted by them.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Armada: Galactic War has the makings of a fine online real-time strategy game, but it�s simply not ready for battle yet.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Garage, Inc. offers a neat setting for time management gameplay without the depth and features needed to make it truly stand out.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Stifled by tricky controls, Heavy Gunner is visually striking but too repetitive to live up to its epic billing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While The Inferno's brand of fiendish maze-running possesses a stripped back, old-skool charm, clunky controls and poor animation place the game in a frustrating state of purgatory.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Although it feels more like an expanded tutorial for the original Neuroshima Hex than a proper game in its own right, the 100 levels on offer here will provide many days of fiendishly challenging head-scratching enjoyment.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Fast and frenetic role-playing that fixes some of its predecessor's largest flaws, despite the continued reliance on rote fetch quests and cheesy writing.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A little harder than the previous entry, Episode 4 HD continues the Back to the Future story, warts and all.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An impressive side-scrolling shooter whose intuitive touch screen controls and unique art style compensate for a lack of variation and longevity.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent twist on the connect-four genre, with a pricing scheme that's almost guaranteed to put off all but the most committed devotees.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Galaxy Express adds charm to a classic puzzle scenario.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A few tweaks and Russian Dancing Men could be the rhythm-action game to beat on iOS. As it stands, it's too flawed and frustrating to recommend.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Bring Me Down uses the Unreal Engine to deliver a high standard of presentation and convincing physics, but the seemingly random nature of success undermines the enjoyment somewhat.
