    Bravely Default breaks from the traditional JRPG mould time and time again, providing dozens of hours of clever adventuring.

    A simple but engaging expansion of the slicing genre, KingHunt is an enjoyable arcade blast.

    Once you look past Jetbee's cute exterior, it becomes obvious how devilishly high the odds are stacked against you.

    • 60 Critic Score
    Division Cell is an attractive casual puzzler, but its wishy-washy concept and vague gameplay means it never truly gets its hooks into you.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A bland and unremarkable game, Clash of Puppets isn't broken, but it's far from memorable all the same.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A mediocre platformer made for a good cause, Nightmare: Malaria starts out challengingly but quickly becomes frustrating on account of the maddeningly clumsy controls.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Puzzle Coaster is an enjoyable game with which to wind down, though the controls are more likely to stump you than the puzzles.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's not as pretty as the home console version, but Injustice: Gods Among Us - Ultimate Edition is nonetheless a tactically complex and rewarding fighting game.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Another engrossing and well-written character-driven drama from Telltale. An opportunity for more varied gameplay has been missed, but it's a strong start to an interesting series.

    • 50 Critic Score
    It has its moments, but Space Hulk stumbles too often to really recommend.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A very good version of a great game, the 3DS outing of Swap Force is the portable port fans have deserved for a long time
    • 78 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A smooth and clever puzzler, Blek has its frustrating moments, but overall it's an impressive, creative package.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A big silly game full of repetitive combat and simple missions, Assassin's Creed Pirates somehow still manages to be fun.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Rote but decent mini-games are married to impeccable presentation and an adorable lead to create something quite special.
    • tbd Metascore

    Want a harder version of Clash of Clans? With super-quick load times and clever social elements? Battle Command! is for you, then.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Just like Adol, you've already seen most of what there is on offer in Ys: Memories of Celceta. The immense world and fast-paced combat will easily win over fans of action-RPGs, though.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Sand Flame is a sluggish, unattractive, and just plain bland third-person shooter with grind-heavy combat and a wearisome IAP model.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Doctor Who: Legacy is a real treat for Whovians, and a satisfying but derivative RPG-puzzler for the rest of us.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A tired-feeling game in a sloppy new set of clothes, M.U.L.E. Returns is difficult to love.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    When something looks to have all the ingredients of strategy excellence, you can't help but be a bit sad when it turns out to be more shallow than you'd hoped. As it stands, though, Super Tank Poker boasts brilliant music, an excellent sense of style, and the most entertaining, explosive approximation of poker I've ever seen.

    • 80 Critic Score
    The Inner World is a charming and inventive game. It will appeal to ardent fans of mid-'90s point-and-click adventures. Clumsy translations, overlong conversations, and technical hitches prevent it from reaching greatness, though.

    • 70 Critic Score
    With Burn the Rope 3D, Big Blue Bubble may not quite add a whole new dimension to the original game, but it does successfully develop the formula with tighter controls and more interesting level design.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Stick It to The Man! contains all the humour of a Tim Schafer game, mixed with some intuitive controls, and a wonderful melding of platform and point-and-click genre norms.

    Once you are gripped within Zuki's Quest field of gravity, you won't be able to let go without a fight.
    • 78 Metascore

    Space Chicks is great fun, though the action can get crowded at times. It boldly goes where no endless-runner has gone before, and the genre is better for it.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Packed with action, intrigue, and gore - and excellently told and illustrated by Wallis and Chalk, respectively - Gun Dogs could well be Tin Man's most accomplished gamebook to date.

    A well put together and enjoyable puzzler, Let me Loose doesn't have enough to raise it above the rest of the crowd.

    Slingshotting beetles at wood is more addictive than it sounds. And for free, you might as well try it for yourself.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A fun and clever action game, Darklings shows how much can be accomplished with a touchscreen control system.
    • 58 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A-Men 2 is enjoyable in moderation, but the trial and error gameplay soon makes for a rather frustrating experience.
