    Chocohero is certainly not the only game of its type out there, but it's definitely one of the best designed. In addition to tight controls and well-designed levels, the art style and music are perfectly complementary (and, of course, super-adorable).

    If you're down with small and charming experiences, though, Blueprint 3D deserves a look.

    Flick Home Run is a simple concept which is well-executed by Infinity Pocket. It's already provided days of entertainment, which is a dollar well spent. With so many excellent games available, I'm a little surprised this is in the very top rankings, but this baseball interpretation is certainly worth buying.

    Aesthetically, Evertales is pretty good. It looks great, sounds good, and has some cute cosmetic upgrades for its heroes. Otherwise, it's bland and boring. I've always been pleasantly surprised by these studios in the past. Evertales was a surprise, but it wasn't pleasant.

    And check out the game's story. It's a delight and delivered just right.

    If you can adapt to the controls, you're left with a game of great potential.

    If you're a fan of Japanese history, as I am, you are sure to have a soft spot for this one.

    Sad Robot is truly an example of the sum of its parts being greater than each element taken separately.

    While Saving Moo's core gameplay certainly borrows some of its elements from previous successful titles, its light hearted foundation and overall wacky presentation puts it above the rest of the pack.

    It's fun and challenging without any of the dangers associated with real mining (except perhaps mesothelioma, though I'm not sure there's a connection between it and Peak Gold).

    Poker Pals delivers a fun interpretation of poker, with desirable asynchronous play and random match-ups for people without many online friends. It has a high replay value and should come with a warning about time-consumtion, due to the constant, but pleasurable interruptions when it's your turn.

    Overwhelmingly refreshing.

    One word game that has captured my attention, and is worth checking out.

    In general, DynaStunts still manages to be a solid experience. It's casual enough that most people should be able to pick it up, but it's also packed with enough content that those who want to can explore it further.

    It's not the most challenging platform game, with chibs generally being plentiful and easy to locate, but it's fun to play, making this a casual but solid platforming experience.

    It combines a simple, yet enjoyable gameplay experience with longevity features such as achievements, Game Center and OpenFeint support, and a fair amount of difficulties and game modes. Sure, the gameplay is a bit basic, but what it does offer is executed well.

    Putter King Adventure Golf does a great job of capturing the spirit of miniature golf, bringing back memories of playing this as a child against my father.

    Ninja Pong is a simple game. But like many arcade classics, it inspires a desire to improve that will keep it entertaining long after you've seen all it has to offer.

    This is a stupid-fun game with some sharp features and systems that'll keep you invested and having a good time.

    Casual gamers looking for a well-done take on the strategic line-drawing game should definitely check out Rescue City – especially since the first fifteen missions are free.

    Playing this game may even tell you something about your own character. How confident and greedy are you – will you gamble for the high score, or flip?

    I've never played anything like it. In some ways a successful loop feels like a Rube Goldberg machine, where the momentum from one clip launches the next, over and over ad infinitum.

    Slam Dunk King masters the frantic, barely-controlled flicking and swiping that makes games like Fruit Ninja so great.

    Unless you're just dying to play Brick People with someone you're sharing a room with, though, multiplayer doesn't really make up for a lackluster single-player experience.

    Mostly, it could do with more content.
    • 58 Metascore

    At the moment, it still feels more like a proof of concept than a full-fledged experience, but as a quick and free distraction it works well.

    Compelling enough that even the sometimes-imprecise controls can add to the overall sense of accomplishment when completing levels.

    Arcade Jumper is a fun game, especially once you've unlocked the double-jump. However, the restart delays are excessive and the constant returning to the beginning is wearing thin and may stop some players from seeing the zones full of sloping and tilting platforms, asteroids and fireballs ....and probably other stuff I haven't seen yet, because of constantly returning to the beginning.

    2K12 needs a bit more to hold my attention over significant stretches of time -- I'd love to see some sizzle from anywhere and especially from the action on the court. That said, I'm not sure the point here was to give me thrills; this is a simulation to the bone and all of its struts and constituent parts support its sharp, through pretty strict "action." If anything, this is a good start for a series.

    A standout in almost every way. From look to setting to the touch-centric gameplay, it shines, and you can tell this title was crafted with much love from its developers. Any horror fan will be thrilled by it.
