It's a whole different world on that side of the App Store, but I think Crowntakers holds it own quite well with its unusual blend of elements from roguelikes, strategy games, and RPGs.

Dragon Hills takes the core idea of flying a dragon, strips it down to its absolute basics, and goes wild.

Pie in the Sky: A Pizza Odyssey may not be for everyone, but those of you who enjoy a good relaxation-based affair will get a good amount of time in with it.

Football Manager Classic 2015 is a fantastic game not just for those who love the sport, but also for anyone who enjoys RPGs and choose-your-adventure gamebooks.

I appreciate Hit-Point trying to shore up their weak points and work outside of their comfort zone, but Valkyria Soul just doesn't work very well.

So The Quest Keeper falls just short of the heights that Crossy Road reaches, but it's a perfectly valuable game in its own right. It's a ton of fun, it kept me coming back to it again and again to try and get both high scores and to complete quests, and I got to outrun a bunch of spiders.

It's odd to say that a gorgeous game like Last Voyage can be shallow, but it kind of is, albeit in an interesting way.

The lack of urgency and dread and overall anxiousness of how much longer I can make my run go is ultimately Corridor Z's biggest downfall, and holds back what is an otherwise great take on a tired formula. Two tired formulas, in fact.

Unusually for a free game, Dungeon Hero RPG is more than willing to freely give you everything it has to offer. It's just a shame that everything it's got ends up being fairly meager in total.

In the end, I think I'm just a bit disappointed that for how much Mortal Kombat X is a better-designed experience, very little of that improvement includes the actual gameplay.

I like the attempts to add complexity, but CivCrafter takes it to its logical extreme. It's a stupid and clever idea, but perhaps this is where we should end the ride for the genre.

This could be a unique collecting-and-battling game, and instead it exists a singleplayer-focused experience, trying to monetize through little advantages here and there.

The drop off in pace from Iron Age to Classical Age was too sharp as it felt like I'd suddenly run out of things to do, but otherwise this is a solid game with exceptionally high production values and a fair free-to-play system.

Even if you aren't the type of gamer that enjoys taxing experiences, Cube Koala is so well designed that you can pick it up and play it with ease, learning its intricacies as you go along.

But with Attack the Light, Grumpyface delivered a fantastic RPG that anyone can enjoy.

If you've never played a baseball simulator before, MLB Manager 2015 is as good a jumping-in spot as any, with the latest features and real teams adding to the authenticity.

This is an altogether greater experience than Shadowrun Returns, and I'm extremely impressed at the improvement on the developer's part.

If you actually remember "retro games" from the first time round, when they were just "games" and we didn't know they were retro yet, then Boss Monster will surely rekindle some fond memories from your youth.

It's not an RPG. There's no dungeon exploring. You go from A to B by moving left or right based on what you want to pick up next, and that's all. Here's the exact description that Invictus put on the App Store: "This ultimate pixel art RPG game brings you solid and pure dungeon crawling experience." No it doesn't, Invictus. It does not.

Here we have the simple story of a hero trying to bring down the baddie told in such a classic cat-and-mouse way that Gunpowder will appeal to both fans of puzzle games and cartoons alike.

Echo Dawn isn't going to knock your socks off, but if you're looking for an original JRPG-style game that offers the full package, it's a decent enough choice.

It’s rare for a game to be as difficulty and frustrating for me and yet be so enjoyable to play. Chromaticon manages to strike that balance with me and offers a compelling enough experience to keep plowing along until I can eventually complete that next stage and move on.

Criminel is disappointing, but to reiterate, the ending really redeems the whole experience.

What we've got here is a well-designed, beautiful game with great controls.

I really have to recommend Tiny Dangerous Dungeons to anyone who enjoys platformers or Metroidvanias

Even the most diehard of gamebook fans is going to be hard-pressed to get much out of Gamebook: Pocket RPG.

I'm thoroughly enjoying Lettercraft. It's fresh and fun. I don't see it being a hit for its multiplayer aspect, but as a single-player word game it's a lovely experience.

If you're a fellow Star Wars fan, search your feelings you know it to be true, is there ever really a bad time to indulge in games paying homage to that galaxy far, far away?
