    Sons Of Uruzime is just traditional enough that it likely won't appeal to those who aren't already into gamebooks, but if you do enjoy them, this is worth picking up and taking a few cracks at.

    This game just needs a bit more to step above and beyond the competition.

    Capitals is a satisfying game. I like the blend between strategic, hex-grid real game tactics and word game mechanics. Download and check it out, it's a really satisfying game.

    The game's admittedly cheesy fun is kind of spoiled by all of the technical issues, but as long as you go in with the patience to deal with them, I think you'll find the game has a lot of charm. Awkward charm, goofy charm even, but charm nonetheless.

    Knights Of Pen & Paper 2 is close enough to the first game that you won't have a bad time playing through it, but as a sequel, it's pretty disappointing

    My understanding is that The Barbarian was made by a one-man team. That's very impressive, of course, but it doesn't change the actual game, which falls short in a few too many ways to give it a solid recommendation.

    Ire is a relatively-rough gem with a great art-style, demanding but gratifying combat, and plenty of content to have you playing for many, many hours.

    Hardboiled remains an interesting RPG that fills the Fallout-style strategy game void that makes a game like this rare to encounter on a mobile platform. If you love RPG's then Hardboiled is a must.

    The colorful new style and great new explosion effects are just icing on a solidly designed cake. Whether you're a nostalgic fan or you've never delved into the series before, it's still worth playing to see how the developer has grown, now making a triumphant return to form from a rough patch in his life.

    While it may lack gameplay innovations or flashy razzle-dazzle, it's a good solid example of the gamebook genre that should sit nicely in the library of fans.

    Fatal Fight is free, fair, and fun, so if any of that alliteration appeals to you, go hit that link.

    Combined with the crazy visuals and the streamlined RPG mechanics and you have an impressive experience that is well recommended.

    Legend of Grimrock was a breakout hit on desktop and it should come as no surprise that it is just as good, if not better, on a mobile device.

    The game is still really fun, and a nice way to just kind of chill out to while still be challenged

    As the title of the game shows, Seek is really about the process of looking and exploring; it's about experiencing the journey along the island's narrow paths and wide valleys while pulling back layer after layer.

    Galactic Nemesis generally feels quite good to play, with good explosions and lots of feedback when you hit something. Its modernized take on the wave-based shooter gives it plenty of character to stand out among a fairly competitive genre on iOS, and there's a pretty good amount of content and challenge for the price.

    Tallowmere is full of neat little touches. It definitely isn't for everyone, but almost everyone seems to come to like it after a while.

    I suspect most will find The Enchanted Cave 2 to be just the right mix of sugar and spice to keep them happy through all 100 levels, and potentially beyond.

    Even with the game's half-hearted conclusion, I think Soul Unleashed is worth some attention from RPG fans.

    But this otherwise is such a well-crafted game for $1.99 that I recommend it anyway.

    Lost Within isn't going to shock you, or even surprise you with new concepts that you haven't seen before in the horror genre, but it will at the very least intrigue you.

    Ultimately, Goat Simulator has always been a game about balancing fun and funny. In my view it leans a little too much toward the latter, making it seem more like a joke to show your friends than something you’ll really want to spend hours playing around with.

    Sure, it's kinda weird that the sequel is so much simpler than the first game, but ultimately I think it's the right choice for a free arcade game in 2015.

    Don't go away from this review thinking that this is by any means a bad game, but it's impossible to give an unqualified recommendation for a game that a lot of people are going to find boring.

    The highs of Lifeline are very high...the lows are disappointing.

    SoulSpark is a very entertaining game, so download it, try it, and if you are enjoying it, which I believe you will, buy some gems so you can get the most out of it.

    My advice is to play in a padded room, or to get a wrist strap for you phone, because this one is going to do your head in, get you throwing your device at the wall and keep you coming back for more.

    Test Chamber is a superbly-conceived and well-crafted puzzle game that will exercise your brain in the most satisfying way.

    If nothing else, I appreciate how far it goes towards realizing its lofty ambitions, I just wish the whole thing didn't feel like it was going to come apart at the seams at any moment.

    Ultimately I think VEGA Conflict is a mixed bag that some gamers could take umbrage over certain design decisions. My personal opinion is that it's a free to play game that doesn't keep you from doing the fun stuff, and it's an improvement on an established formula.
