    A slow-paced and dreamy puzzler that's worth all of your time.

    • 60 Critic Score
    It might bear the board game's name, but Pictionary owes more to mobile gaming than it does to the collection in your cupboard.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This might not be the best version of Human Resource Machine, but it remains a puzzler well worth checking out.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a decent one-touch distraction. It's not going to shock you out of any malaise, but you're going to have a decent time while you're playing it. And to be honest, sometimes that's all you want from your mobile entertainment. Run-A-Whale is a decent slice of game, but it's not much more than that.

    Steredenn's polish, variety, and thrilling bullet hell makes it a must-play for shmup fans.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's solidly written with some fresh ideas, but overall Artificial Superintelligence feels lacking and unpolished.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Battle Bay is the perfect way to kick off the warmer summer months. It's familiar, sure, but its bright and beautiful design and masterfully crafted gameplay will quickly make you forget that you may have played this game before in some other guise.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Kamiko aims for Zelda-lite but falls way too short of the mark due to dull design, simple puzzles, and levels which lack substance.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A solid but unremarkable brawler that runs out of super steam a little too quickly.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    SpacePlan won't appeal to everyone, but its absurdist sci-fi story and polished design makes for lacking gameplay mechanics.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Ms. Spell has promise and polish but this roguelike suffers from basic mechanics that quickly becomes repetitive.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    TumbleSeed is a difficult game, for sure, but it's also frustratingly satisfying, fun, and a deserved nod to arcade games past.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A bright and intriguing facade can't hide the fact you've played all of this before.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Easy to grasp but challenging to solve, Antitype's puzzles offer clever distilled word games.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's fast and frenetic in all the right ways, and it makes you feel like you're getting better with every step you take. If you fancy some silly space-based slaughter then this one is definitely worth checking out. Just make sure you stick with it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A hollow experience, layered with dull humour, that you should definitely avoid.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It's not Mario Kart 9, but Mario Kart 8 Deluxe is the best game in the series and a considerable leap forward for portable and multiplayer gaming.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Hexy: Puzzle Adventure is a nice, simple puzzler with some unfortunately basic flaws.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Invert is a really cracking puzzler which offers up plenty of head-scratching challenges and bags of solvers' satisfaction.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It may look cute and have a good premise, but Evergrow: Paper Forest falls flat under the lightest of scrutiny.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Nonstop Chuck Norris is just a reskin of Nonstop Knight, so you're either going to love it or hate it.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Mushroom 11 is a cracking platformer which meshes a couple of genres together very successfully.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Yo-Kai Watch 2 is bigger and better than its predecessor, but there are still a few kinks left to iron out.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There's a big idea in Tempest, but it gets lost in the swells and eddies of its empty seas.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Full of Stars is may have a few issues, but its choice soundtrack, beautiful visuals, and fluid gameplay really makes the game sing.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Mr. Shifty is a fun, twitchy action game that fails to capitalise on what was so good about its primary influence.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A pretty impressive mobile adaptation of the series. The monetisation might upset some, but look past that and you'll have a lot of fun.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A mash up of old concepts in a brand new way. Even if the idea of a puzzle RPG makes you balk, you need to give this one a go.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A nice idea that gets a bit lost in difficulty spikes and frustration.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Smashing through Forged to Fight is a laugh, but it's not much more than that.
