    • 60 Critic Score
    Adds some ideas to typical Breakout-style arcade fare, but forgets to bring along excitement and colour.

    • 80 Critic Score
    Elegant, charming, challenging. Sweet Drmzzz is a masterclass in simple and intuitive game design, though won't be everyone's cup of tea.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Bitcoin Billionaire is admittedly light on gamey-stuff, but it can be extremely difficult to put down all the same.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A bright, engaging arcade game with enough zip to keep anyone entertained for a good long while.
    • 92 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    XCOM: Enemy Within adds some wonderfully inventive new toys, but making it a separate app means only those who truly adored Enemy Unknown should double dip.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Day of the Viking has a few too many sharp edges, but if you stick with it there's a pretty decent game here.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Star Wars: Galactic Defense is a vanilla tower defence game that just so happens to include characters and vehicles from a cherished franchise.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A game that never lives up to its central idea, Haunt the House: Terrortown is spoilt by clumsy controls.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A bright and rather brilliant puzzler, Twisty Hollow is a great way to waste a few hours.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    Secret Files: Sam Peters's sloppy mobile port makes it a difficult adventure to recommend.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A rock solid strategy core, but doesn't have the bells and whistles nor the replay value expected at its price point.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Stripping the kart racing genre of all of its vital elements, Monkey Racing is a thoroughly flat and soulless experience.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Slowdown, loading screens, and AI woes plague Tiny Troopers: Joint Ops all too often, leaving it a disjointed game at best.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    For a game that shouldn't be involving enough to survive five minutes, NOON is a beautiful and addictive experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A decent 3D spatial puzzler with some clever mechanics, but one that's perhaps a little light on variety.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Race the Sun is a blast while it lasts, but there may not be enough to bring you back after the first couple of enjoyable hours of gameplay.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    George Orwell meets Monster Hunter in what feels like one of Vita's oddest and most significant exclusives yet.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A nicely presented, but ultimately underwhelming addition to the auto-runner genre.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Minutes may be visually duller than its bullet hell peers but it makes up for it with a variety of game-changing surprises.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A tough, violent, strategic card battler, Warhammer 40,000: Space Wolf is a sharp-edged love letter to the grim vision of the future.
    • 65 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Like most endless runners, your mileage will vary with Run Sackboy! Run! which, while impressively handsome, is a surprisingly limited example of its genre.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The Sailor's Dream is a gorgeous, meditative experience with heart and soul. But it's lacking in substance, depth, and meaningful interactivity.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A polished endless runner that looks and feels great, but stops short of creating something truly special with its core elements.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Zombie Catchers is a fun, funny, bizarre little game that came out of nowhere and immediately started gnawing on my heart.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The NES Remix games are clever reinventions of classic games. It's just a shame this 3DS edition is so lazy, and far from Ultimate.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Entertaining, amusing and great for quickfire RTS play, but too shallow to sustain interest.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Sleep Attack TD's stage-spinning gameplay adds a dash of originality - and difficulty - to a solid tower defence game.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Woah Dave! is about three times more fun that it should be, and keeps you playing five times longer than you intended.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A strikingly simple yet severely limited casual arcade experience, Meat Factory provides a grisly slice of ephemeral fun.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Audio Defence expertly executes on a clever idea. But it's more of a fun gimmick than a game you'll want to keep coming back to.
