    At the moment, it's a fun clone of Clash of Clans with great fanservice and idiotic AI. It has ever-increasing timers, premium currency, requires an online connection, and a bunch of other monetization tricks, just like CoC. If you hate that game, you're not going to have more fun here, but if you enjoy it and you like Star Wars, you're probably going to have a good time here in spite of its flaws.

    In spite of all of my problems with the game, it's still really fun while it's rolling along.

    With the number of iterations the Ancient Battles franchise has had, I expected to see a marked improvement which for the most part I have, but nothing here goes beyond expectation.

    While I enjoyed the story of this game and I certainly appreciate the on-going efforts to put together a strong class system, the dreadful dungeon designs, creaky engine, and dry localization all keep Soul Historica from being as good as it could be.

    Spooklands does a lot more with its concept than it really has any right to do – the game is spectacularly designed, and a ton of fun to play, even while fighting for every last point. This is a must-play arena shooter.

    Oh, and the game is absolutely gorgeous, its alien bio-luminescent look being extremely colorful, with an atmospheric soundtrack that's a perfect fit for the game. It's just the bow on a game that's so wonderfully-made otherwise.

    If you're new to the series, I'd actually recommend checking out They Need To Be Fed 2 first, since it's a bit more friendly in its difficulty progression and it's not missing anything important that you would find here. If you've played a game in this series before and enjoyed it, then you'll want to go ahead and pick this one up right now.

    It might not be the follow-up to A Dark Room you would like, but it's highly likely nothing could be.

    As it is, The Firm's monotony, gallows humor and lack of depth are holding back an otherwise very beautiful game.

    If you're even a little bit into strategy games, you need to get some Catchup all over your mobile device.

    It’s certainly not the deepest game, even in its own genre. However, I have no problem offering a recommendation for what it offers.

    While the paid version clearly enhances the experience, the base game is still very much playable, and will give you the general gist of a typical session.

    It's certainly worth checking out, but be warned: it might make you feel your age, even if you're not all that old.

    It feels like the right length for the amount of story it aims to tell: much longer, and it would have meandered, and it would have felt rushed were it edited down.

    If you're even remotely interested in Hearthstone, unlocking Curse of Naxxramas is a no-brainer.

    I do think there's more that can be done with the concept, but as a mindless pick up and play game, Dungeon Slots is quite fun.

    While I'm fairly certain it will be fixed at some point and my main issues will be solved, the fact of that matter is that right now, Corpse Party is up for anyone to buy in the App Store in a shamefully poor state.

    Thus, I think that Size DOES Matter winds up being a game I enjoyed playing more than I enjoyed how it is structured, but it ain't bad as an arcade survival game with music.

    Star Realms continues the trend and provides superior gameplay even amongst it's venerable peers.

    A bit like grabbing a convenience store cheeseburger when you're craving a gourmet burger, Angel in Danger does everything you'd expect it to do, but not quite what you might hope it does. For platform fans craving something in 3D, though, that might be enough.

    Even with the quick advancement to end-game and its pretty simplistic play style, I’d argue that TourStar might be worth a purchase beyond its paywall just for the potential to purchase contest entires. Unfortunately, until that system is actually working and all the other kinks are ironed out, I have a hard time really recommending it.

    Fans of Adventure Time or anyone looking for a bit of a different runner should check this one out.

    The fallout of the failed kickstarter is currently too toxic for this die hard fan of the board game, but the future is still bright for this juggernaut.

    It's hitting all the Ace Attorney buttons, with a huge cast of crazy characters, engaging cases with lots of plot twists, and a funny, well-written localization propping it all up. I

    Some people may have lost their taste for pure tower defense, but for those of us with an appetite there is still meat on this dinosaur's bones.

    If you actually burn through every monthly Kemco release, this one will do you just fine, as it's hardly their worst effort, but if you're sitting there trying to pick between this and a few others you've missed, you're probably safe to give Rusted Emeth a pass.

    As it stands, BrightRidge is all about exploration, and in this regard it does just enough to succeed. There’s a whole world waiting to explore in BrightRidge and I think it’s worth checking out.

    PKSArena has confirmed a number of future tweaks to increase challenge and gameplay options that will be forthcoming. A game like this could really gain traction with multiplayer support, either live or asynchronous.

    If you're on the hunt for something simple and odd, and you have a fair bit of patience, you might want to give Boshi a try. I think it's going to turn off more people than it catches, but the latter group should get their dollar's worth out of the game.

    If you really enjoy stories with that kind of vibe, you might get your money's worth here, but you're going to have to be patient with the game's many deficiencies.
