    A fantastically compulsive, very pretty shoot-'em-up - fans of Parodius (and shooters in general) should make a TwinBee-line for this.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Familiar gameplay doesn't take away from Swing King's fun and challenging presentation.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Repulze may not be as feature packed as some of its rivals, but the focused gameplay and stunning visuals ensure that speed lovers will extract full entertainment value from it.

    With plenty of content and a fresh idea at its core, Cognitile is an entertaining puzzling diversion.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Noble Nutlings tries to achieve that elusive Angry Birds-style charm and simplicity, but ends up being frustrating, expensive, and simply rather joyless.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Gorgeous graphics and fun presentation make this game a difficult one to stop playing.

    It might not be the most original idea out there, but Time Surfer is executed with such aplomb that that really doesn't matter.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Absurdly funny, perfectly challenging, and massively rewarding. This gorgeous, must-have motorbike game is a mobile port done right.

    • 70 Critic Score
    Crimson Shroud is one of the most finely crafted games available on the Nintendo 3DS, though the tabletop setting may prove difficult for some to engage with.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    While some will be disappointed that RAD Soldiers isn't about armed surfers from the early '90s, it's still a massively entertaining tactical violence simulator with plenty of humour and charm.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An impressively comprehensive collection of bona fide text adventures greats, featuring superb presentation and enough bonus material to thrill completists.

    • 30 Critic Score
    With little personality, minimal content, and overly simplistic gameplay, HorseWorld 3D: My Riding Horse is headed for the glue factory.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Alphadia2 doesn't offer anything that we haven't seen previously, but those who appreciate old skool Japanese RPGs will find little to complain about.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It won't be to everyone's taste, but Stone Age: The Board Game is a deep and entertaining multiplayer package.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    With a bit more content, BloxBox could be a classic. As it is, it's just highly recommended.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's an interesting idea here, but Hundreds just isn't inspiring enough for you to want to stick around to find it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's fun to be had here, but Emergency Mobile just doesn't put you in enough jeopardy to become truly addictive.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Even if your one goal in life is to play a game where you control a hippo dressed as Santa, it's probably still worth giving Air Hippo a miss.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Epic Mickey: Power of Illusion had the potential to be a neo-old skool classic, but the elements taken from the Epic Mickey series stale those from its Castle of Illusion pedigree, leading to a game that's slower than Toby Tortoise.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Despite putting its own spin on the short Marvel comic series, Zen Studios has managed to strip back the Marvel lore so it appeals to pinball heads everywhere. It's as good as the firm's Plants vs Zombies table, if not better.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A timeless classic is reborn on iOS. The Lords of Midnight has lost none of its ability to captivate and entertain, and serves as a fitting tribute to Mike Singleton's genius.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Playmobil Pirates is full of personality and contains some excellent visual design. The handful of issues present here only slightly detract from an otherwise very entertaining freemium builder.

    Miss the days of Beatmania? Meet the new king of Japanese-style rhythm action madness, straight out of South Korea.

    Knytt Underground is slow to start and difficult to interpret, but you'll always have fun exploring its environments and surmounting the puzzles that environment presents.
    • 81 Metascore

    Challenging, competitive word-searching make Wordament a game worth playing whether you're padding your Live stats or not.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Lush graphics and free-roaming environments compensate for a steep learning curve, spotty controls, and a reliance on in-app purchases.

    • 70 Critic Score
    It might have limited appeal, but there's a solid and enjoyable rhythm-action game beneath Santa Rockstar's festive pomp.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A slick physics-based puzzler and gorgeous to boot, Hydroventure: Spin Cycle needs a spot on your Nintendo 3DS.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Modern day first-person shooters will feel weak after you give Oddworld: Stranger's Wrath HD a play, thanks to innovative gunplay that still holds its own today.
    • 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.
