    • 80 Critic Score
    A great pair of tables for any pinball fan with an iOS device, offering a great balance of fun, immediacy and long-term high-score challenge.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    DungeonUp's gameplay could stand some tweaks to make it more fun versus frustrating, but what's here is engaging.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Joe Danger 2: The Movie’s oodles of content and its unique platforming/stunt racing hybrid experience makes it an undeniable hit.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A sharp and well put together shooter, Gunslugs 2 might be a little too crazy for some, but it's definitely worth a look.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A sparse, clunky golf game with a twist that fails to add anything meaningfully new to the genre
    • 60 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A very simple slots game riddled with ads, Area 777 is easy on the eye, and even easier on the brain. While it won't convince naysayers, genre fans might want to give it a spin.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Spectrum - 3D Avenue is a surprisingly elegant (and finite) approach to "flapping".
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    An extremely simple, teeth-grindingly tough one-button reactions test with a funkier-than-average art style that isn't as fun as it thinks it is.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Battle Slimes is an interesting multiplayer distraction, but it isn't particularly complex.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A brief but surprisingly engaging little puzzler that adds a frantic air to some pretty staid shape-shifting challenges.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Duke Nukem 3D somehow holds up as a wicked fun shooter in 2015, and this Megaton Edition is a worthwhile compilation.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A well put together, slightly frantic arcade tapper, there's not much to Don't let the dot die, but what's there is fun.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A dark and sometimes stirring gamebook, Sol Invictus might not add much to the template, but it's a thrilling ride all the same.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Like 99% of the games in Breezy Leaf's genre, you'll download it, play it, get confused, get frustrated, and delete it.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    1-bit Ninja Remix Rush is an unrelenting and unforgiving challenge, and the perfect antidote to toothless endless runners.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A bright and gleefully chaotic line-drawing blaster, Sky Patrol is a neat little diversion.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    An ingenious, well put together mash up of genres and ideas, Gunbrick is the first must-buy of 2015.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    There's a solid game here, but Drop Wizard doesn't manage to turn its good ideas and great presentation into a must-buy.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A wonderful looking shooter, Seraphim is a little thin, but you'll enjoy what's here while it lasts.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Awkward controls and poor AI make a mess of this stripped down real-time strategy game.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A polished and poised puzzler with some clever ideas, Super Looper isn't perfect, but it doesn't outstay its welcome either.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Iron Finger doesn't snatch Wario's mini-game crown, but with some retooling it'd be a decent mini-game collection.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Give it Up! is a super-frustrating rhythm game. Some of that frustration is intentional, but unfortunately some of it isn't.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A pure, clever, tactile, endless jumper, Stair: Slide the Blocks to Ascend simply offers too little for the average player, but is worth checking out for its smart gameplay.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    There's fun to be had here, but not enough for you to reach into your wallet.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There's enough fresh material here that Nitropia - War Commanders stands out in a crowded genre.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A reasonably sharp turn-based battler with a sense of humour, Braveland Wizard doesn't have enough new ideas to make it a must-buy.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A slightly sloppy but ultimately entertaining arcade kick around.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Escape from Laville 2 is a poorly-made adventure game of interest only to any Escape from Laville fans out there.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Poor presentation and a repetitive structure disguise a challenging and addictive resource management game.
