    • 90 Critic Score
    Fast, exciting, and full to the brim with action, Implosion - Never Lose Hope is well worth a long hard look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Dungeon Hero RPG has some control issues and its graphics are nothing special, but its core gameplay is solid enough.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Stealth Inc. 2 can be frustratingly difficult at times, but the level design is so spectacular and the challenges so varied, it's effortless to forgive.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A rich and entertaining RPG with surprising depth, Attack the Light is well worth a look.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A reasonably well put together Star Wars game, but it lacks the imagination to really recommend.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    An awfully simple screen masher, Mortal Kombat X looks the part, but it's all a bit flat
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A blast from the past, that works perfectly well on mobile, but probably isn't quite worth the asking price.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Xenoblade Chronicles is an embarrassment of riches, packed with content and depth. But it feels like a squeeze, rather than a natural fit, on Nintendo 3DS.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A fine concept marries dungeon crawling with Pipe Mania, but it's all too frustrating and fiddly for its own good.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A perfectly competent tower defence game with little to distinguish itself from the genre heavyweights.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A reasonably entertaining arcade runner that doesn't overstay its welcome.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Final Fantasy Record Keeper will please many fans, but RPG fanatics wanting to sink their teeth into something may be taken aback by the initial lack of content available at launch.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A slight and lovely puzzler, Breath of Light won't appeal to everyone, but if you like it you'll probably love it.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright and pretty brilliant retro shooter.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A neat enough recreation of cricket, and it's free so you may as well have a crack.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The Trace is a little plain, but does a good job of letting you play detective with its smart cobweb of questions and clues.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A bright and wonderfully well put together game, Silly Sausage ranks with Nitrome's best.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Servicable, if typical, strategy mechanics are ruined by an aggressive free to play model and terrible presentation, although pass and play is worth a brief try.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A visually alluring spatial puzzler that doesn't quite control with enough precision.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A bold, innovative colour-matching puzzler that suffers from poor control calibration.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a good game trying to get out here, but it gets nerfed too often by fiddly controls.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A teeth grindingly awful game, but you'll still want to get to the end of it.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A wonderfully put together mobile advenutre, Poco Eco is well worth your attention.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    An App Store rarity - a proper head-scratcher that's great looking and also has something to say.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A dreary button masher that's neither interesting or exciting enough to recommend.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    94%
    An interesting idea that failed to turn into an interesting game, 94% is largely dull.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A clever, fast-paced word game that's well worth a look.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    An energising and hilariously funny version of Hamlet, Ryan North's To Be Or Not To Be is a crucial gamebook for literature buffs and comedy fans alike.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Great visuals and sound fail to cover up a bland game - Jelly Jump is all style and no substance.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A clever twist on the bullet hell genre, Magenta Arcade is well worth checking out.
