    An entertaining platformer, but one that isn't as engaging as its predecessors.

    It lacks the complexity and strategy of a true MOBA, but Titan Brawl makes a valiant effort of making the genre mobile-friendly.

    Steamworld Heist excels at what initially seems like a potential weakness, removing a dimension from the typical 3D battlefields of XCOM and similar games. But its brand of 2D tactics only makes positioning, smart strategy, finding effective synergies between weapons and classes, that much more crucial and satisfying when you survive against overwhelming odds.

    • 90 Critic Score
    Impressive on every level, strategy and tactics, scale and presentation, despite the odd rough edge from porting.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A shiny and well put together driving sim that captures F1 pretty damn perfectly.
    • 56 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Convoluted and grind-focused, Sword Art Online: Hollow Realization will alienate newcomers and potentially bore old fans.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Pokemon Sun and Moon is another winning adventure with good ideas and oodles of charm, but a focus on making everything easier just robs the game of any real challenge or tension.

    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It still has the fun factor of the series, but Asphalt Xtreme feels more like a game stuck in the past than a step forward.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    An interesting take on the shmup that appeals to more than just the aficionados.

    World of Final Fantasy is an unexpected delight and ranks towards the top of the list of must-haves for Playstation Vita.
    • 72 Metascore

    On a platform where there are too many great RPGs to fit on your radar, there are plenty of reasons why Gurumin shouldn't be one of them.

    A steep and potentially frustrating learning curve may keep players from reaching the game's deep strategic core.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Football Manager Touch 2017 is an iterative update, but that still makes it far and away the best football management game on iOS and Android.

    • 90 Critic Score
    A truly excellent console-style racer that's been carefully modified for mobile play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Pace and repetition issues aside, Oh...Sir! is a wonderfully witty and strangely strategic game that will tax your mind and make you smile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fairly bright and breezy freemium base builder with light hack-and-slash RPG elements, Zombie Anarchy: Strategy, War & Survival would be a lot better if it demonstrated more brains and less brawn.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Bright, colourful, and tons of fun, PinOut is a reimagining of pinball that blows the original out the water.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    If you can overlook its occasional oddities, The Forgotten Room is on its way to being an excellent point-and-click puzzler

    • 80 Critic Score
    A silly, irreverent take on chess that somehow manages to be an awful lot of fun.
    • tbd Metascore

    A solid enough arcade experience, but scrape away the extra freedom and it's just another arcade experience.
    • tbd Metascore

    What starts off reasonably well ends up losing its way pretty quickly.
    • 89 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Transportation management and minimalist art combine in this colorful and challenging puzzler.
    • 86 Metascore

    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    RETSNOM promises great things, and has good moments, but is ultimately trite and not all that interesting.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A sharp and entertaining platformer with a big heart despite its vomit obsession.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A weird and dark adventure that's well worth exploring.
