    This is a game I find myself returning to daily, and I'm constantly amazed at how great the writing is, how imaginative the world is, and the size of the whole thing; you can, and probably will, get lost in the labyrinth that is Fallen London.

    Simply put, Guns Of Infinity has almost all of the best qualities you would look for in a gamebook.

    The gameplay is enjoyable enough that I'd recommend giving it a try, at least, but I imagine most players will quickly grow weary of waiting for another turn at the machine.

    Yo-Kai Watch Wibble Wobble may have a few quirks but dedicated puzzle gamers, especially those who have some interest in the overall franchise, owe it to themselves to give it a shot.

    It's a bit of a one-trick pony, but it does that trick very well.

    If you have any soft spot in your heart for wacky racing around household locations, you need to check this game out.

    If the idea of solving concepts by sliding things into place excites you, you'll probably enjoy Zenge and the whimsical presentation it drags along with it. Otherwise, stay away from this relatively low key zen-like experience.

    I feel like Warbits could have taken some risks, tried to do some things that were more than just trying to ape Advance Wars.

    Scarlet Sails is a decent adventure that might appeal to those who love exaggerated tales of swashbuckling pirates, but it feels to me that it could have been a much more satisfying experience if it had a little more narrative padding.

    It’s a great city building game that’s free of the shackles of “freemium,” and every strategy fan owes it to themselves to give it a shot at some point.

    If you're already a Pang fan, you can grab Pang Adventures without a second thought. It's completely worthy of its legacy.

    My understanding is that Magikiras is this author's first gamebook, which at least provides some explanation behind some of its issues. While I applaud the author's creativity and certainly respect the effort that must have gone into creating such a large adventure, I hope any future efforts are handled a bit more elegantly than this one.

    Well, I wasn't as impressed with Give No Shelter as I was with In Too Deep partly because the writers removed most of the horror-related themes and replaced them with the usual walker jump-scares (and even those were on the limited side). Add to that how we didn't get much character development and, instead, had characters do silly things (sillier than usual), and you can understand how the episode didn't have the gravity and complexity of In Too Deep.

    If you love any of the associated franchises, it's worth giving the game a go, at least for a little while, but it's too bad that the lessons learned in the core Kingdom Hearts games seem to have been ignored here.

    Order Up is another entertaining romp around the Minecraft universe, and overall it delivers plenty of interesting choices as well as some big set pieces that are handled better than previous set pieces in the series.

    A Block and a Hard Place wrapped up much of the series, and while it provided plenty of conflict, it did remind me once more that although we see plenty of "that person will remember this" that indicate that your choices have consequences, we didn't see as many character clashes as I would want to.

    Overall, Episode 3 definitely redeemed Telltale and the series and helped erase the sourness left over by the pretty-bland Episode 2.

    So, overall I would say that almost everything but Assembly Required's narrative works quite well; it's a shame then that Minecraft: Story Mode is a narrative-driven game because in that respect, it was quite disappointing.

    At least at the moment, Marvel: Avengers Alliance 2 is a player-friendly free-to-play game with a well-designed battle system and satisfying party-building choices.

    Retro City Rampage DX is without a doubt a well-made game, and one with some real high points to it. But there is that question of whether you should play it when the games it takes obvious inspiration from are available for about the same price.

    LEGO Jurassic World is par for the course for iOS LEGO games.

    If you want a game that you can play for hours at a time and not feel like you need to spend money, Fishing Break may not be for you. But for other crowds out there that are looking for a zen-like respite every so often, it'll do just fine, especially if you rest a bit in-between progression walls.

    If you're in the mood for something light, you'll probably appreciate the charms of The Daring Mermaid Expedition, but it feels like it could have been a lot more.

    For a free game that doesn't pull any punches, Crazy Alien Invaders is a nice little ride.

    There's so much fun to be had from the various references and the tweaks to the formula that each theme brings to the table.

    As long as you don't mind that Mimpi Dreams is more about taking you on an audio-visual journey than putting your twitch skills to the test, you'll likely find the game to be worth your time and money.

    King Rabbit retains the mechanics of its brilliant predecessor while improving the overall structure of the game.

    It sounds odd to rail on a story in a puzzle game, but Perfect Angle could have been so much more if it dropped it entirely, or just went in a different direction.

    For a free game, it's quite player-friendly even if you don't pay anything, and you'll likely get a few laughs out of it, but in its current form, it falls into the troublesome category of sessions requiring a bit too much time and concentration to cram into short slices, yet being too repetitive and capricious to satisfy for longer sit-downs.

    It’s a clever idea that works pretty well on the touchscreen, and there’s plenty of content to keep you engaged in the form of extra modes with slightly tweaked game mechanics.
