    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A rich evocation of the wonders of Westeros, marred slightly by an overly light strategy model and significantly by egregious free-to-play elements.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A gleefully destructive game that peaks early and fizzles out too soon, Death Worm is nonetheless well worth checking out for its empowering gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A shiny shooter offering bite-sized varied daily play, but that's a bit too brutal regarding instadeath.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A sharp, short arcade experience. Revolve may not stick in your head for long, but it's still good fun while it lasts.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A sharply drawn free-roaming action game that combines knock-about combat with a steadily expanding world to explore.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A beautifully designed game that'll turn your life inside out for a week.
    • 65 Metascore

    Despite a couple of gripes, Octodad: Dadliest Catch suits the Switch well. Whether you're playing on your own or arguing with up to three other players with the drop-in co-op mode, you're bound to have a fair bit of fun with it.

    Assassins Creed III Liberation isn't quite the poster child for Sony's neglected format that many were hoping for, but Vita owners should probably be grateful they get a dedicated adventure of their own. There's no telling whether the same will hold true this time next year.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid brawler, but one that does very little with the Tekken licence. If you want another Street Fighter-like scrapper, it's a solid purchase.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid adaptation of a tense, rollicking boardgame. But this digital version suffers a bit without the immediacy of face-to-face play, and from a startlingly similar competitor.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Finding Teddy's hands-off approach will likely be too much for many to take, but there's an intriguing and enthralling point-and-click adventure here that's just waiting to be discovered.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a pleasure to be involved in Jurassic GO's vivid world, but don't expect more than a cute digital safari.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you don't own a portable device for playing Angry Birds, then this is a bumper package you'll want to invest in. Angry Birds aficionados need not apply though.
    • 71 Metascore

    Stylishly presented and perfectly adapted to the character of the Minis mindset, Cubixx is a pleasingly uncomplicated, effortlessly playable and very solid action puzzle effort.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Prope's fast running action puzzler gets a lot right, however squiffy controls put a real dampener on the otherwise impressive porky proceedings.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A little gem that's a lot of fun in short bursts, but pay too much attention to No Brakes Valet and the wheels start to fall off.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Full of Team 17's wicked humour and some neat ideas, Flockers doesn't quite have the chops to be more than the sum of its parts.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A bright and breezy one-touch arcade experience. Satellina might not last very long, but it's still worth a look.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Unsurprisingly, this Metal Slug 2 remake has all the same strengths and most of the weaknesses - which is to say it's a cracking platform-shooter with iffy virtual controls.
    • 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.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's what you'd expect from a free-to-play Pokémon clone, but Monster Legacy pushes enough of the right buttons to still be entertaining.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Little Nightmares Complete Edition is a wonderfully atmospheric horror game which lacks challenge in its puzzles.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An engaging platformer that misses a few steps, Leo's Fortune is still well worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Drift Girls isn't going to be for everyone, but then again it probably doesn't want to be. If you like cars and anime babes, and aren't above a bit of lechery, you should probably go get it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Racing breaks up the harvest, build, repeat cycle of town building in this cute title.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An entertaining, if familiar, endless-swimmer that's kept afloat by its gorgeous visuals and ample personality.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An interesting looking snowy pinball experience that'll keep your flippers happy over the holidays
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A melting pot of ideas and abstract concepts, Arranger is sure to appeal to those looking for something a little different on their iOS device. It's just a shame that its zany genius is curbed slightly by some poor controls.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    With an endearing art-style and fine puzzling action, Sushi Mushi nevertheless has a few rough edges.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Light on story but heavy on gameplay, Yumi's Odd Odyssey will as surely delight platformer connoisseurs as it will confound casual players.
