    There's a lot to like here, and while it does make some mistakes, the good is pretty much outweighed by the bad.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A sharp and smart mix of arcade genres that click together to form something really entertaining.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A mobile game that thinks outside the box, and does it brilliantly. Expect to be hearing about Clash Royale clones in the not-too-distant future.

    If you were looking for a new match something puzzler, Futurama: Game of Drones will fill that gap nicely. You'll also love it if you're a fan of the show.

    There's a fun game here, but once you've gotten the gist of it, you might not find much else.
    • 86 Metascore

    Not every puzzle is successful in Love You To Bits, but the imaginative levels and charming presentation will keep you entertained as you seek out the more smartly-designed headscratchers.

    This is a tweaked mobile version of the main Assassin's Creed franchise. And when it works, it works really well.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    In Too Deep is a focused start for this promising mini-series, but never really gets out of third-gear.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    I Keep Having This Dream mashes together a bunch of ideas, and while they don't all come off, it's still an entertaining journey.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Blackwell Epiphany is a successful final chapter for a memorable series. It has great puzzles, sharp writing, and a plot that's both epic and emotional.

    Thanks to some iffy virtual controls and missing audio, Rayman Classic isn't quite a perfect port of the Atari Jaguar original.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An enjoyable slice-and-dicer with enough tricks up its sleeve to keep you entertained for a while.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Thumb Drift is a simple and engaging one-finger racing. It might not have much meat on its bones, but it's still worth a look.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's fun to see your favourite characters working and fighting together, but the gimmick wears off as you suffer through boring combat and fanfic-level storytelling.

    Stellar Wanderer has some massive ideas, but it's the little things, the important minute-to-minute things that it gets wrong.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fresh and entertaining snowboarding game. It might have a few problems, but the core gameplay makes up for that.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bravely Second is a worthy sequel to a fantastic game and fans of the series will be very pleased.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A sharp and angry roguelike that mixes arcade sensibilities into its DNA but doesn't quite pull off the right quantities.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Legend Borne may be another Clash of Clans-type game, but it innovates enough and provides a fresh structure of play to appeal to fans of the genre both new and old. It's just a shame about those connection issues.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fast and reasonably fresh arcade experience with some solid ideas and a few niggles that are easy enough to look past.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A brilliant spacial puzzler with some intriguing ideas that works perfectly on mobile.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Super Mystery Dungeon isn’t a great celebration of 20 years of a legendary franchise, but there's some entertaining content here worth an occasional poke.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Given its resolutely multiplayer stance, we question Dreii's longevity. For now, though, it's a superb, mesmerising creation.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A solid port of one of the best games ever made. It's expensive, but you'll get an awful lot of bang for your buck.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A solid blast from the RPG-ing past, Ys Chronicles 2 isn't a bonafide classic, but it's still well worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Rainmaker is a slick and entertaining puzzler. While it might not have the chops to hang around in your games folder too long, it's still worth a look.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A great mobile adaptation of a board game well-suited to the platform, but the multiplayer leaves a lot to be desired.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Don't let the visuals fool you - Marvel Avengers Academy is an example of free to play at it's worst. And, if that's not enough to put you off, the dialogue absolutely will.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There are some interesting ideas here, but the whole thing feels a little too cumbersome to really recommend.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent enough arcade experience that's easy to pick up and play, Ultimate Briefcase isn't quite a must-get though.
