    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Creative new mechanics and a cracking solo option make this worth playing in spite of the occasional dull session.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Bad Dinos has enough clever ideas to refresh the tired tower defence genre - at least for a few hours.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright and bold retro hack-and-slash platformer that comes highly recommended.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Skiing Yeti Mountain is a future classic. The quintessential winter sports experience on mobile.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A cute Crossy Road-influenced high-score game that's a little too light on variety and originality.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A habit-forming gear changer with lots of shiny cars and a surprisingly relaxed free to play system.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A nicely presented endless flier that stands out by doing the basics well.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A silly shooter that doesn't quite distance itself far enough from the games it's mocking. Still pretty fun though.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A smart, literal twist on the match-stuff puzzler. KANO adds enough spark and arcade action to make it worth a look.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Knights of Pen and Paper 2 is more of the same. And it's still full of heart, wit, and grind.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It feels a bit like it’s rolled in from 1995, but Armadillo Gold Rush is quite nice, fairly fun, and somewhat charming
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A great roguelike platformer, full of challenge and excitement, slightly spoiled by clumsy controls.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Heroes and Castles 2 makes a mess of both its genres, offering mushy action and brainless strategy that rarely merge in a satisfying way.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A zombie-themed expansion of Goat Simulator's premise, meaning lots of manic action and cheap laughs built on technically dodgy foundations.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A bright and ingenious combination of mechanics that'll suck you in and refuse to let go.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A simple to play casual flier with enough ideas to set it just ahead of the rest of the pack.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a bit of pop to Skatelander, but after a while it falls flat.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A fine little abstract for the mobile age, which trades a bit of depth and variety in exchange of accessibility.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's a good game here, it's just a shame it's held back from becoming a great one.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A cleanly presented auto-runner that's a little too slow off the mark.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Code Name: STEAM is charming in style and experimental in genre, but a number of missteps make it tough to recommend whole heartedly.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Spacecom is deeper than its simple graphics and set-up let on, offering some strategic thrills that are accessible to all.
    • 94 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A great port of a great game. If you've not played Grimrock before this is a really good way to rectify that.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Another flat Threes! clone with a curious and unappealing computer tech theme.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright and silly arcade blast, Cooped Up isn't classic Nitrome, but it's still ruddy good.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A well presented flick-'em-up with decent physics, though it won't win any awards for depth or originality.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Wire Defuser is a steep challenge, but one worth embarking on if you're into puzzle games.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great mobile remastering of a classic RPG. If you like your quests obscure and your combat bouncy, there's a lot here to enjoy.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A solidly put together, entertaining midcore strategy battler.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    There's a set of ideas here that could have been something special, but it all falls flat on its windy face.
