    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A slick adaption of a classic boardgame that's hampered by poor AI and dodgy online matchmaking, making it far too tough to enjoy with any consistency.

    • 60 Critic Score
    Sakura Slash is a slice of fun but throwaway screen-swiping nonsense.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Frantic, fast, and a little bit special, Ring Fling is a brilliant party game in your pocket.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Entertaining and well-made, Shoot The Zombirds might not be particularly original or innovative, but it's very good at what it does.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Full of charm and plenty of nice ideas, Bee Leader is a strange and alluring glimpse into the world of the honey bee.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This smart scrolling shooter is one that revels in its Japanese spiritual iconography and risk / reward systems of play, making for a delightful but tough minis release.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While it tries to tackle some of the problems inherent in the smartphone FPS, Razor: Salvation ends up feeling dull because of it.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Subway Surfers never jumps the tracks, but it never goes off the rails either.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Velocity is an intelligent shmup that takes its presentation notes from the past while looking forward for its systems of play.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Radiangames squeezes its frenzied twin-stick experience into a level-led maze game, and it's just as satisfying and addictive as the rest of the series.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Cheese Please is far smarter than it seems, but lacking in flair. An Edam, then, rather than a delicious Brie.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A half-decent Korean RPG with a weak interface that obscures some entertaining combat grind. Don't expect a good story or any interesting characters.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An entertaining, if underdeveloped, physics-based puzzler that's just far too shallow to sustain momentum.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Exponential Invasion is an inventive and solid maths puzzler that's just too short.
    • 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.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Super Smash Bros in all but name, this basic fighter just doesn't do enough with its fighting engine or character-rich licence.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A bad case of identity crisis, Men in Black 3's lack of focus leads to an underwhelming experience on both the action and simulation fronts.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Not exactly original, but a well-made and lovely looking castle defence game.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A feature-packed RTS that's smart, intuitive, and has the gameplay chops to back up its gorgeous looks.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An imaginative take on the endless-runner that's let down by unresponsive controls.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A conventional, by-the-numbers shooter that just about stands out for its enjoyable firefights, in both single and multiplayer, and for being the first handheld FPS to really work.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    All the thrills and excitement of its console brothers, with surprisingly dependable controls. A lack of modes and almost useless multiplayer dampens the fun, though.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While it will keep you entertained for a period, Pastry Panic is a little too lightweight to become a classic.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An utterly unique if disappointingly shallow exploration-based shooter.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A solidly presented, smartly designed construction-based puzzler that's easy to recommend.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Score! Classic Goals is a fantastic idea, executed marvellously. Why did no one think of this sooner?
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Violent and funny in most of the right places, Alive4ever Mini might just be another follower of the undead fashion, but it does what it sets out to do well enough that you can forgive the absence of new ideas in the game.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Proof that you can deliver a fast-paced, thoroughly entertaining racing experience on touchscreen with a bit of creative inspiration. It's definitely worth giving a fling.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    The 3DS eShop scores another whopper, as Art of Balance Touch! is essential puzzle gaming.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An impressive game with a gorgeous world you'll want to explore, Air Mail is only let down by its lack of challenge.
