    Corpse Party
    When you're following the narrow path the designers expect you to walk down, Corpse Party is one of the scariest portable games you can buy. Yet, failure to do so demands you re-play massive chunks of content you've already seen, significantly diminishing its appeal.

    Mega Man X
    The classic original shines through in places, but its greatness is mostly clouded by a poor-quality port.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Zenonia 4: Return of the Legend
    Zenonia 4 doesn't add anything to the template its predecessors have laid down, but that doesn't stop if from being an entertaining and engaging action-RPG.

    Mad Tracks
    The central premise of Mad Tracks works fine and once unlocked the races are varied, but getting to them takes ages, requiring you to re-play the same courses with the same monotonous AI too many times.
    • 46 Metascore

    Mad Dog McCree
    As enormously flawed as ever, yet curiously enjoyable with it, Mad Dog McCree feels oddly at home on the App Store.

    Toy Shot
    If you can get past the old-fashioned first chunk of the game, Toy Shot has plenty of interesting new ideas to keep you entertained.

    M.U.S.E.
    M.U.S.E. tries to layer run-and-gun gameplay on a control system better suited to tactically shooting from cover. The result is a bit of a mess.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Kingdom Rush
    Brilliantly combining as stiff a task as you're likely to encounter with a perfectly pitched sense of fun, Kingdom Rush breathes new life into the tower defence genre, and has a whole lot of laughs doing it.

    Dungeon Hunter 3
    The Dungeon Hunter series has always been a bit of a blunt object, and this third instalment is no different. In spite of its controversial move to a freemium model, Dungeon Hunter 3 is still an entertaining, violent romp.

    War on Terror
    Wonky mechanics and no multiplayer support at launch mean that this boardgame may end up gathering dust in the cupboard until an update is deployed.

    Chuck's Challenge
    Despite being comprehensive in terms of content, Chuck's Challenge is too dated to really stand out.

    Marathon 2: Durandal
    A poor-quality port of a game that has aged terribly.

    Jurassic Park: The Game 2 HD
    While episode two has some better puzzles than before, Jurassic Park is still a barely-interactive rollercoaster ride that's more about watching pretty cutscenes than actually playing a game. With its premium price tag, it's very tough to recommend it.

    Real Soccer 2012
    Forget the freemium fluff: Real Football 2012's big problem is that its attempt to simulate the beautiful game is left sorely wanting, with jagged and jerky matches undermining all the social slop Gameloft's slapped on top.

    Cheeseman
    As tough as it is fun, and with a brilliant soundtrack, CheeseMan is a fine slice of iOS platforming at its best.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Breakout: Boost
    If only a little more budget was invested in the development of Breakout Boost, it'd play more like an arcade titan and less like a nostalgic cash-in.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    LostWinds
    LostWinds is a wonderful treat, brimming with clever ideas and imaginative sights. It's just a massive shame that the controls took a big hit in the transition from Wii to iOS.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Catball Eats It All
    Visually speaking, Catball Eats it All is an interesting mashup of surreal and expressionist art styles. Unfortunately, the all-important gameplay doesn't do the graphics justice.
    • 72 Metascore

    Trenches II
    A misjudged sequel that mistakes quantity for quality.
    • 60 Metascore

    Ice Rage
    Unapologetically shallow, undeniably fun. A lightweight confection that's particularly tasty with two.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Sonic CD
    A faultless conversion of what is arguably Sonic's most accomplished adventure, Sonic CD on the iPhone combines amazing presentation with a surprising degree of depth and playability. This peerless 2D platform escapade is a must for any self-respecting iPhone gamer.

    Pokemon Rumble Blast
    If you're still catching them all in Pokemon Black/White, there's no reason to jump the gun with Super Rumble. Only fanatics need apply.

    Venture Towns
    Kairosoft throws out another stonking management title, with Venture Towns satisfying our hunger for creativity, expansion, and depth.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Michael Jackson The Experience
    A slick port of a proven formula. Michael Jackson fans, of which there are many, will find much to enjoy.
    • 59 Metascore

    Six-Guns
    In visual and gameplay terms, this freemium action title hits the bullseye, but the complete absence of any kind of storyline robs it of purpose.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Time Ducks
    Offering the right kind of ludic lunacy, Time Ducks is a wacky winner.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Boom Bugs
    Mired in mediocrity, Boom Bugs fails to excite.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bug Princess
    A manic game that requires performance enhancing drugs to keep up with it. We suspect it's an audition piece for The Last Starfighter.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Green Farm 2
    Green Farm 2 doesn't reinvent the wheel, but balanced in-app purchases and colourful graphics make it worth your while.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Camping Mama: Outdoor Adventures
    The mini-games are just as fun as they've always been and the cute visuals have lost none of their charm, but Adventure mode is perfunctory and crudely made.
