    This rooftop scramble is hugely playable, but is undermined somewhat by the greedy in-app purchasing system which saps away some of the enjoyment.

    First Wood War is an attractive real-time strategy game, but numerous issues with its controls, difficulty level, and grind-heavy gameplay serve to set fire to the developer's noble ambitions.

    They Need To Be Fed 2 offers more of the same platform-physics action as its predecessor, albeit with a couple of tasty twists at the end. It's a shame you have to wait for the truly interesting stuff, though, and the game's controls never quite click as they should.

    Ark of Sinners Advance stumbles towards greatness. It's not the easiest game to pick up, but it is a difficult game to put down.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Despite extensive character customisation options and an intuitive control system, Monkey Boxing lacks the depth to truly go the distance.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A generic target shooter in funky retro clothing, Fist Face Fight talks the talk and dances around the ring well enough, but it lacks the killer punch to knock you for six.

    Those yearning for another Lego adventure would do well to invest in Lego City Undercover: The Chase Begins.

    Clever, charming, and an awful lot of fun, Runaway Snack deserves more than just a moment of your precious time.

    Arena blaster fans will thoroughly enjoy Alien Chaos 3D, especially if they have a (strange) predilection for cleaning up their mess afterwards.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    If you're looking for some meaningful storytelling in a video game, you will love Thomas Was Alone. If you're after a challenge, though, best to steer clear.

    Like the home console version of Injustice: Gods Among Us? Want to unlock some trinkets for it and don't mind trudging through a repetitive fighter with minimal skill requirements? Then, this is for you... weirdo.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Though Devil Summoner: Soul Hackers may be a little harder to get into than Devil Survivor Overclocked, it's just as entertaining.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A bland and boring shooter with no surprises or fresh ideas within, R.I.P. Rally is an ugly shambles.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Pixar films are about attention to detail and fun - this game has neither of those things.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A card-battling game into which serious strategy fans will want to invest some equally serious time.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 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.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An hilariously entertaining new addition to the gamebook genre, Trial of the Clone is a brilliant way to spend a rainy afternoon.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Simple and infectiously entertaining, Cut The Rope: Time Travel is full of wonderful ideas that will make you smile.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An entertaining, if unspectacular, mix of solo and multiplayer golf that simply isn't strong enough to warrant the constant in-app purchase demands.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    This entertaining retro RPG is perfect for those seeking a lighter take on old skool dungeon-crawling, but it's a little too repetitive and sluggish for its own good.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Fans of the scrolling-text style of iOOTP Baseball will be in their element in this edition. And while the gameplay itself remains familiar and unchanged, it may not prove quite compelling enough for all but the most ardent slugger fans.

    • 20 Critic Score
    There are games you played 20 years ago that are still miles better than this utterly vapid licensed cash-in. It's almost insulting to discover how poor this is.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Code of Princess looks and sounds brill, but the shallow nature of its hack 'n' slash action lets it down greatly.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A platformer with a few decent ideas, HEAVY-sword is let down by clumsy controls and a stark reliance on nostalgia.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Quite possibly Kemco's most accomplished mobile effort so far, Symphony of the Origin looks and sounds stunning, but suffers from a poor English localisation which has an impact on the quality of the story. Even so, it's worth a look if you're a fan of the genre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A deceptively fun, if simple, shooting game that will test your skills and patience.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Guacamelee! is genuinely funny, massively enjoyable, and filled to bursting with good ideas. It's your next essential Vita game.

    • 60 Critic Score
    Relativity Wars struggles to find the right balance of difficulty from start to finish and comes off as merely decent.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    RRBBYY is barely a name for a game that's barely a game. It's a clever idea, stylishly presented, but it needs to go back into the development oven before it's ready to eat.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Slow-paced and full of wit and charm, Blue Toad Murder Files has found a comfortable, well-appointed new home on iOS
