    A dark veil of skin-crawling despair wraps around Lone Survivor's tight aesthetics, although as this begins to wear off, you may find the mechanics underneath a little too repetitive

    No matter how you play it, you'll cherish your time with The Millennium Girl - even if you occasionally find the journey to be more hassle than fun.

    Ookibloks is a bright and fresh little puzzler. There's an awful lot to like about its mixture of cuteness and logic.

    There's not a lot here for parents, but the children of those parents will find their first flight game here, and probably have a jolly good time with it.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The main gameplay can be a little tiring over long periods of play, but Boom! Tanks is otherwise a compulsive game of simple tank combat.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Clash of Clans with a jungle setting and a modern military theme. Jungle Heat isn't exactly innovative, then, but at least its developer does steal its ideas from the best and re-purposes them effectively.

    It's more of the same. For some, that's going to be enough. But if you're looking for innovation in Angry Birds Star Wars II, you're going to be a little disappointed.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A confidently executed and extremely stylish puzzler with a heavy reliance on its innovative ribbon-swiping mechanic.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    With Infinity Blade 3, Chair turns the thrilling sword-fighting series into a huge adventure. The reliance on frequent deaths and forced grinding, however, is an infuriating relic from previous games.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A big silly shooter with lots of zombies to plough through, Dead Effect is far from a classic. But it is brainless fun.
    • 39 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    Measured against the fun of previous Madden mobile titles, Madden NFL 25 is more disappointing than a fumble in the end zone.
    • 54 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Warts and all, it's impossible to not like Dragon Fantasy Book II if you can recall a time when Square and Enix were two separate companies.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A fine idea, but technical flaws, uneven difficulty and an almost total absence of logic ruin what could have been a great strategy game.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    The race for the best driving game on mobile almost got interesting, but 2K Drive has too many technical issues to truly keep up with the very best in the field.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Joust Legend does get a tad repetitive, but the crunchy combat is entertaining enough to make the game worthy of a purchase.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Rage of Bahamut, but with a Star Wars twist: if you're sworn off card battlers then there's nothing for you here, but Star Wars fans just might find their next unhealthy addiction.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    A decent enough puzzling sequel that's ruined by an overbearing and unpleasant payment system, Where's My Water? 2 is a soggy mess.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    A great way to spend a few hours. If you like games that ooze fun from every pore, you should definitely pick up Heroes of Loot.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A well put together boardgame adaptation, A Brief History of the World can be a little impersonal. It's still fun, however.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Codename Cygnus certainly represents an interesting new way of playing, but its creator doesn't quite manage to iron out the kinks in this novelty experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    While FunGenerationLab doesn't do anything especially new or different with Motocross Elite, it is good fun while it lasts. Repetition can set in after a few hours, mind.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A realistic simulation of the sport that offers up an enjoyable boxing experience, and is only let down by lacklustre training modes and touchscreen controls.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It may be ugly and unrefined in its presentation, but this is a smart, challenging, and surprisingly substantial strategy game.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    A dull, sparse endless-runner that proves to be as lifeless as its post-apocalyptic setting.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    A surprisingly fresh endless-runner full of charm and humour. No real improvements to the genre formula here, though.
    • 50 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    A deeply ordinary third-person shooter made considerably more interesting by the addition of co-op multiplayer.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Call of Duty: Strike Team is one-part clumsy FPS, and one-part satisfying top-down strategy game. Spend most of your time with the latter and you'll be guaranteed a pretty good time.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Despite its slimey appearance, Fix the Leaks provides a solid experience.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    While it's well-made and decent to look at, 4 Thrones doesn't really have the gameplay to keep you entertained for long.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    The freemium element isn't handled as well as it could be, but this is a decent game of cards with lasting appeal.
