    So, no, Kero Blaster is not Cave Story 2, and the sooner you put the notion out of your mind, the sooner you can get to enjoying an extremely well-crafted action game.

    This is a retro homage done right, and not just for the sake of being retro.

    If you have an iPad, then you owe it to yourself to check out this arcade shooter.

    It's not a great RPG by any means, but it serves a particular context that is somewhat underserved. That might be enough to earn it a place in the library of genre fans. Not bad for a first outing.

    This is one game that certainly sets the standards for all future puzzle games.

    As mentioned earlier, 2-Bit Cowboy, with its simpler ‘Westernvania’ experience is almost like an introductory experience for gamers looking to get their feet wet into more complicated platformers.

    If you're looking for something a little quirky or you enjoy a good puzzle game, you should definitely give Blek a try.

    Superfrog HD isn't a bad platformer, but it's not a very good one, either.

    Whether you’ll enjoy HSL or not is dependent on your preference for an “old-school” rogue-like. If that’s something up your alley, then by means give it a try.

    Tiny Dice Dungeon is generally fun to play and it's packed full of interesting ideas, even with its shortcomings. It's assuredly rough around the edges and the balancing needs more work,

    It's definitely worth checking out for gamers who appreciate a good score attack.

    It's a bit of a slow burner, but if you like logic puzzles and word games, Spellpix will provide you with hours of entertainment.

    It's unambitious, predictable, short, and not very stimulating, but it's almost impressive in how tightly mediocre it is in every aspect.

    If you enjoy a tough challenge built around a relatively simple gameplay technique, Suited Up offers you a good amount of well-designed content with the potential for a lot more, but I think a lot of players are going to get their fill pretty quickly.

    Angerforce - Strikers isn't quite as high-quality as the Cave games it clearly homages, but it does get awfully close, and taking the price into account, that's a pretty good deal.

    With a core mechanic as simple as climbing over the fallen bodies of your past incarnations, Sometimes is fun, unique, and memorable.

    An excellent adventure platformer, Leo’s Fortune is a prime example of taking an established genre and simply taking the quality factor to an entirely different level.

    Blackmoor is sometimes funny, sometimes surprisingly deep, sometimes intensely frustrating, and sometimes kind of dull.

    Stunningly beautiful, jam-packed with replay value and secrets, and loaded with tons of great action, Wayward Souls is an absolute must-have.

    Aside from its unattractive presentation, Circix is a quality title.

    Instantion contains 50 levels, with each level taking at least a few minutes to figure out even if you're quite fast to pick up on things, making for a fairly meaty puzzler.

    I think if you're interested in trying a game of this genre, Fable Age isn't a bad choice, especially if the theme works for you. I doubt it's going to steal away many players from Puzzle & Dragons or Brave Frontier, but it's certainly a competent, if not all that exciting, entry into the ranks.

    Dark Guardians may lure you in with its striking visuals, but don't expect much more than smoke and mirrors.

    The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is marginally better than the previous game in many ways, and I'd dare say we are approaching the quality of the early console open world Spider-Man games in most respects, which is a delight for just a fiver. At the same time, there are a variety of things included in this game that not only do not benefit the end user but actively sabotage the entire experience of trying to enjoy the game.

    Faced with big shoes to fill, increased competition, and a very different market, Wind-Up Knight 2 isn't in the most enviable position, but it manages to succeed through good old-fashioned elbow grease.

    iOOTP Baseball 2014 is a niche game. For those who love numbers and micromanaging, you’ll be in heaven. For those wanting a game you “play” instead of command, you’ll be lost and most likely bored. The formula hasn’t changed drastically, but the inclusion of a player editor is a big step forward. I

    Hitman GO is one of those unique games that takes the name of a popular series, sticks it onto a game that is not at all similar to its namesake, and winds up being good.

    Groundskeeper2 is an entertaining action game that will keep you busy blasting bots for bits and bobs for a while.

    Hearthstone is not only an example of a free-to-play model done right, but it's a must-play for card game enthusiasts everywhere. It's incredibly easy to get into, the picturesque art is easy on the eyes, and best of all -- it plays perfectly on an iPad.

    The absolute best Fighting Fantasy books are still to come, but this is one of the real classics in the series, so if you enjoy gamebooks or goofy sci-fi, I encourage you to give it a try.
