    Although Ragnarok Odyssey Ace falls into many of the same pitfalls as its predecessor, it still offers a fair amount of fun if you don't overthink it.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    King of the Course starts out fairly strong, and implements an interesting swing mechanic, but the aftertouch controls ruin the fun as often as they enhance it.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Audio Defence expertly executes on a clever idea. But it's more of a fun gimmick than a game you'll want to keep coming back to.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Paradise Bay doesn't do much, but what it does do is going to be the perfect poison for a certain type of player.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There's a good idea here, but it loses its way too early on to really recommend.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Street Fighter 4: Champion Edition doesn't really work on mobile. One to give a miss for now.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Felix the Reaper invites players into this rich, quirky, and tragically romantic world of hilarious deaths and bop-your-head-to-the-beat dance moves, but ultimately falls short on creating a more compelling gaming experience. Dive into it for a puzzle or two a day, but it’s not something you’ll likely be absorbed into from the get-go.

    • 70 Critic Score
    A game that's simple to pick up but requires some practice, Fish Out Of Water! is an enjoyable sea creature-flinging romp.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Bloodmasque is a truly odd mish-mash of swipe-based action, social, and JRPG elements, but only its historical vampire lore is executed with any great conviction.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Skate It takes the good work of the Nintendo DS version and effectively jams it into the iPhone with little concern for control complexity, yielding a disappointing and frustrating skateboarding simulation.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Generic action, performance problems and a lack of direction thwart any chance of Etolis: Arena becoming a twin-stick classic.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An accessible and fun racing game that places you in the driver's seat as you build, customize, and race cars on the streets.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Likeable, fun rhythm game that uses clips from Warner Bros' most famous cartoon enemies to spice up the action. Bit simplistic and lacks any outstanding features, but it is universally playable.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Far more than a cynical cash-in, this PSP version of Final Fantasy is the perfect opportunity to see where it all began.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A big silly game full of repetitive combat and simple missions, Assassin's Creed Pirates somehow still manages to be fun.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It may lack the necessary depth to keep adult gamers contented but MySims will appeal to the younger generation of DS owners.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An action-packed, well-written campaign carries Battlefield: Bad Company 2 past shallow multiplayer and general control issues.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The longevity of Bunny the Zombie Slayer may be short-lived, but the gameplay and graphics are fantastic, and the action is instantly appealing.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Germinator is rather sketchy in its execution, but offers fairly solid Bust-a-Move gameplay.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A lightweight, odd action game that never makes you feel part of the fun, Bloodstroke is too muddled to really recommend.
    • 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.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Seasoned puzzle fans will have a field day with this game, but those who prefer a little more meat in their experience will be left wanting more.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Seasoned Warriors veterans will love being able to take the hacking and slashing with them on the go, but those new to the series most likely won't find much fun to be had.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The definitive handheld version, Transformers DS boasts decent gameplay, good presentation and clever online features that go beyond traditional movie-licensed fare.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Half-hearted and without any direction to speak of, Gangstar Rio: City of Saints is evidence of little else than Grand Theft Auto's greatness, serving up a forgettable and muddled entry in the sandbox genre.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While not completely free of the flaws it highlights in other role-playing games, Fara's tongue-in-cheek humour cannot fail to evoke a smile from even the most stony-faced RPG player.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Robot Unicorn Attack Heavy Metal Edition has all the elements of a good endless running game, but an underwhelming sense of style ruins its appeal.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It hits all the right notes, but Catch The Candy is a pretty average puzzler.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Woody Woodpecker combines the gameplay of Tiny Wings and Mario Kart to fairly good effect, but perfunctory execution clips its feathers.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A cartoon-style romance full of silliness, Boy Loves Girl hides a fiendishly addictive game under a simple premise, then dares you to escape its obsessive trials.
