With its simplistic pick up and play design and well-crafted procedural map, it's a win-win.

It’s simply a cool, interesting mashup of elements that somehow works into a reasonable and enjoyable overall gameplay experience.

Blokshot Revolution is one of those brilliant titles that finds a central mechanic that feels good and runs all the way home with it.

If you gobbled up Battle Academy, its sequel, and Pike And Shot, you'll find another excellent serving here. I think this game also offers a strong experience for strategy fans who love the serious designs of Slitherine titles but are looking for something a little less serious thematically from their usual fare. Those who burnt out on previous titles using this engine might want to avoid Hell: Fight For Gilrand, however.

The game ends up being a roller coaster ride that starts fun, becomes frustrating, then gets enjoyable again until it cedes to tedium, taking one last-minute hairpin turn into frustration depending on your party build.

Baldur's Gate 2: Enhanced Edition is a very good port of an incredibly good game.

AG Drive is the epitome of a "good" game to me.

I highly recommend Magic Touch. It's something I'd recommend to casual players, as just tracing glyphs is simple enough for anyone to get into without needing to be intimidated by old-school platformer mechanics.

And that's what Tempo is: pointless. It aspires only for pointlessness and reaches those shallow goals.

It's not going to rock your socks off with its style or innovation, but for those who enjoy playing with balls, iO has plenty to show you.

If you've got even a little love for rhythm games and a device capable of playing it, you owe it to yourself to at least try Planet Quest.

The basic gameplay is fast, enjoyable, and nicely side-steps some of the problems with trying to do an action-RPG on touch devices. It's just in need of some balancing and a bit more care given to the other elements built around it.

It has the standard array of features: singleplayer, multiplayer, customizable controls with external gamepad options. But with the addition of online multiplayer along with a game that's deep but accessible, I highly recommend checking this out. Get your feet wet, and then prepare for a beating.

I imagine most folks will fall into two camps when it comes to Alto’s Adventure. The first will appreciate the sheer amount of artistic integrity and nuanced visual effects that the title employs and will play it just to experience those aspects. The second will largely ignore those aspects and see the game as yet another side-scrolling endless runner with pretty standard mechanics.

This sequel is just a small step forward, not a huge leap. And considering that it's less than a year later, that's far from a bad thing!

Auro is one of the rare games in this genre that should please both beginners and experts alike. It's definitely worth checking out.

Come in, play a level, and come back a while later when the game feels fresh again.

Regardless, Daytona Rush is pretty enjoyable and deserves at least a download.

Whether you're willing to put up with an imperfect feel in exchange for hours of content is your own personal choice.

If you have a strong distaste for free-to-play, stay far away from King of Thieves. If not, then I really like the concept enough to check it out, even if it's nowhere near perfect yet.

The engine is here, the physics are terrific, and it plays divinely. If you've got fond memories of Pro Pinball, get on this right away.

I'm not going to sit here and call Radical an absolute must-play that you're going to sit back and play for hours on end. No, but it is a stellar example of a simple game that you can enjoy for five minutes at a time, when you want to beat a friend's high score.

Mighty Switch Force! Hose It Down! isn't a bad game, but between its brevity and lack of interesting ideas, it's not a very good one, either.

Right now, there's a solid package of soccer gameplay, just one that could use a lot more tweaking and finalization, even though it's in general release.

There is so much here in terms of unlockable weapons and upgrades. There’re also the great production values and a story that’s actually worth exploring. However, it’s all tempered significantly by the game’s freemium system.

Dark Echo hits all the right notes any well-designed horror game should.

It's a massive, and immensely enjoyable experience.

It rides hard on the novelty of its gimmick, but when a gimmick is as good as Evoland's, the outcome is still a pretty cool game.
