    • 60 Critic Score
    What starts off as a likeable and good looking physics puzzlers ends up a little disappointing.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a decent tactics game here, but the interface is too clumsy and the idea too familiar to appeal beyond hardcore fans.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's Adventure Time Puzzle Quest. I could just copy and paste that again here for emphasis.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 100 Critic Score
    Prune is an awe-inspiring work of digital poetry that transcends its initial subject material to explore a much larger, much more complex theme, in an articulate and powerfully moving manner.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    Badly put together, boring to play, and wholly derivative, you have played a dozen strategy management games that are twenty times more accomplished than Galaxy Conquest II: Space Wars.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fun, challenging puzzling platformer that works well on touchscreen.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    This remake will struggle to appeal to new players or nostalgics with its obtuse puzzles and budget presentation.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A poor twist on the endless climber that somehow makes things even more simplistic and frustrating.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A sharp and retro-edged platformer, Cally's Caves 3 is well worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 30 Critic Score
    A run-of-the-mill puzzle game that could have been OK for kids had it not been buried under eighteen tons of IAP.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Deadliest Catch: Seas of Fury has one boring idea at its core, and then fails to ever make it interesting.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There are some really great ideas here, but they get lost behind muddy graphics and unimaginative track design.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's some fun to be had here, but it doesn't last as long as you'd like.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A squelchy blast of gothic turn-based violence that ticks the right boxes for 40K fans, and offers enough for everyone else too.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A competent if uninspired endless climber with pleasant tilty controls.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A colourful endless climber with a control system that doesn't quite match the challenging level design.
    • 90 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A harrowing and often tragic exploration of life in a war. This is a must buy.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Charm and humour are mere veneer on this insanely tough arcade game, but it's oddly compelling and every point earned feels rewarding.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A good-looking and smooth playing adaptation of a cracking card game, but of limited interest without online play.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A reasonably effective if derivative endless flier that instils a greater sense of progression than most.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A bright and entertaining little game that doesn't overstay its welcome.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It has its troubles, but Nono Islands manages to overcome most of them pretty well.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A brilliant and disturbing wilderness simulator that works almost perfectly on mobile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Forever Lost goes out like it came in - a big batch of smartly made puzzles, but with a scrappy design that stops you getting completely engrossed.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright, clever, and premium puzzler that will keep your brain occupied for a good long while.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Shows its roots as a tabletop game, but also demonstrates what makes Magic the world's most popular collectible card game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An excellent endless runner with an irresistibly tactile slice and jump system.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fresh spin on the maze runner with tough, competitive angle that belies its cute exterior.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It might look amazing, but there are too many little problems here to wholeheartedly recommend the game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Speedy gameplay in a slow, meandering package. Get Kung Fury instead for the exact same mechanics in a much more suitable set-up.
