    • 70 Critic Score
    Karateka Classic has the same problems that all vintage games have, but it's a faithful port and its deep gameplay may just surprise you.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's not the most in-depth of games, but Journey Below plays so well that you won't mind retreading the same ground.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Tough and brutal despite plentiful hints and in-depth tutorial, Le Havre is a faithful recreation of the award-winning boardgame.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Car Jack Streets is all about entertaining open-world high jinks, although there are some issues in terms handling and the difficulty level.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Help Volty is a charming, engrossing little puzzle game, but one that comes with a few disappointments and frustrations.
    • 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.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Gorgeous to look at, and a heap of fun to play, Monster Wars is a clever but flawed mash-up of tower defence, RTS, and slash-'em-up.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A polished and entertaining experience, Metroid Prime Pinball is only let down by its lack of proper pinball tables.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A tactile combination of Threes! and match-three puzzler gameplay, SideSwype is perhaps a little too streamlined for its own good.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Part Mario, part Space Invaders, part every 2D game you can think of, Pix'n Love Rush's complex set-up will likely charm just as many players as it bamboozles.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Stickets is a quietly accomplished and fresh puzzler, though its somewhat narrow focus limits its long-term appeal.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A pretty sharp puzzler with a few rough edges, Exit Strategy is entertaining enough that you won't mind its roughness.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It has its moments, and those moments are worth sticking around some of the less interesting parts for.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A standard, entertaining dungeon crawler. Legacy Quest doesn't offer much, but it is fun.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's enough here that Tiny Guardians feels pretty fresh, but it's still very much a tower defence game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Marvel Pinball is exactly what you'd expect - a well-designed pinball game based around the characters of the Marvel Universe.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A clever and tactical game that just lacks the extra features to truly ascend to the top of the deck.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Balances accessibility and depth for a fun, rewarding take on mobile management.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A slimy and gross adventure with some interesting puzzles and a nice mobile pace.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While it isn't the most innovative game in the world, Tiny Plane has enough interesting ideas to make repeatedly destroying a plane a decent way to waste some time.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Lacks the glamour of its competitors, but the game at the core of Summoners Fantasy has a lot going for it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A brief and brilliant arcade leap-'em-up, Jupiter Jump has enough in its rhythmic bounces to keep you going for hours.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Taito's Qix is reborn in this visually arresting puzzle title, but fans will have to learn to live with its rough edges in order to gain maximum enjoyment.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A strong ending to a good series, if you've pushed past the technical issues this far then there's no reason why you shouldn't complete the set.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A well-built and novel take on the tower defence genre, Anthill: Tactical Trail Defence doesn't quite fulfil its promise, but it's still worthy of your attention.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you're into your clickers you'll get a kick out of the relatively fresh elements found in Coin-Op Heroes 2 but none-fans would be best off staying away.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A blend of arcade racing and sales negotiations, Shine Runner is an original experience.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It might lack a bit in variety, but if the idea sounds like a good one to you, there's plenty here to enjoy.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A gorgeous, engrossing experience, but it's too straightforward, too brief, and too slow to be an essential adventure.
