    Milo & Me comes off as a very ambitious game, and I appreciate that, but there's a lot of work to do design-wise before the idea can shine to its full potential.

    Fates Forever is ultimately quite the fun game, and that's because, well, it's a MOBA and it doesn't go too far outside the beaten path of what the genre has dictated.

    Skip this, wait for the global Tony Hawk's Shred Session and when you see something that feels simplified for mobile, realize it was for a good reason.

    It's not the most original thing you'll play, but if you're up for some straightforward alien homicide, Buzz has your back.

    While there are a few positives to it, such as nicer graphics, speedier play, the fever mechanic, and the idea of a time-based endless mode, it's ultimately an inferior game to its already-questionable predecessor.

    The game is still a little rough, but worth your time.

    It's a well put-together game technically, and I enjoy the sometimes merciless challenge of King games, but I feel like the more obvious they are about the heavy influence of luck on your outcomes, the less satisfying the games are.

    Zombie Puzzle Panic is a very polished clone of Candy Crush Saga that has a few of its own ideas, but still ends up feeling almost exactly like the target of its flattery.

    Yomi has a solid foundation to it, and any card game fanatic should dive in and give it a try.

    It may be be acting as a prelude to the bigger Hellraid game but The Escape holds its own very well and is highly recommended.

    It's a rare free-to-play game that respects both your time and your money, and it's definitely worth checking out.

    It's still a very fun game and one of the more accessible games in the 4X genre, and I'll never get tired of pretending everyone is their respective character from Clone High, but I can't confidently recommend this game to anyone who already has the first game, unless those graphics really mean a lot to you.

    Still, while Uppercup Football is perhaps too chaotic for my tastes, there's still fun to be had with the core soccer play, the many references to pop and gaming culture with the many opponents are amusing, and even the elements that make the game chaotic are still fun to play with, just not all the time.

    This is a flawless version of an incredible game, and my animal-faced hat is off to the people at Capcom for putting this together.

    I’ll still recommend Oscura Second Shadow to anyone that loves the visuals from the screenshots or are looking for another platformer. However, it’s a far cry from being a mandatory experience.

    Really, I know what Storm Casters is: a turbo-speed hack 'n slash game that's kinda shallow, but knows it and embraces it.

    Even with its persisting flaws and somewhat unambitious nature when compared to 1862, Civil War: 1864 is still a nice plateful of comfort food.

    If you're coming into the series fresh right now, I think I would probably recommend Battle of the Bulge ahead of this game. If you enjoy that game's mechanics and are looking for a different scenario, Desert Fox is more than worth your time and money.

    Sky Force 2014 wears two faces. If you simply play it for free without sinking any money into it, it's a beautiful, fun, very grindy shooter experience. If you buy the IAPs, you get a considerably more friendly experience that is easily among the top five original shoot-em-ups on iOS, yet still not without a couple of faults owed to its free-to-play design.

    Those with no special affection for the company can probably find better choices on the App Store in terms of music games, however.

    If you’re looking for a challenge and can handle some pretty tough water physics puzzles, by all means check out H2FLOW.

    While I can feel the appreciation dripping from the visuals and the overall game design, the lack of attention to the core gameplay makes Arcane Ghosts feel less like a love note and more like a poison pen letter to the games it admires so clearly.

    If you come into LEGO Marvel Superheroes: Universe In Peril looking for a port of the console games, you're going to walk away more disappointed than usual. However, if you come into the game looking for something fun to play in its own right, I think this is a better game than usual from the LEGO people.

    A perfect example of how to take a simple puzzle game to the next level, Tales of the Adventure Company is an awesome game that everyone needs to check out.

    It's not a very deep game, and once you get the hang of it, you'll probably plow through the entirety of Get Fiquette in a couple of hours.

    I enjoyed the game's take on sliding puzzles quite a bit, and would certainly recommend trying it out to any puzzle game fans.

    That said, if it's on sale, you're looking for a serving of JRPG, and you don't mind if said serving lacks spice, Link of Hearts will probably serve you well enough.

    It's going to take an awful lot of fixes before I'd recommend this game to anyone, even the most die-hard of RPG fans.

    Superficially it’s easy to overlook Dream Quest. However, once you get past its peculiar looks there’s a somewhat deep rogue-like that’s fascinating to play.

    About the best thing I can say for Farentia is that you get a fair amount of playtime out of it for just one dollar.
