    It's a fun little game, and there are tons of tracks. It has a slightly different feel from many of the other racing games I've played on iOS thanks to its focus on giving an actual toy-like experience.

    There’s little to complain about with Shadow Blade. It’s a great action platformer with smooth controls and plenty of that Ninja goodness.

    Chrome Wolf is yet another Kemco-published RPG that falls somewhere in the crack between great and awful, making it a decent choice for hungry genre fans, but of little interest to anyone else.

    Barring an incredible odd decision to force players to stay online to play it, Rhythm Thief & The Paris Caper is one of the best rhythm games on the mobile market right now.

    While it has similarities to Bean's Quest, it carves its own path with a very different level design philosophy and gameplay pace.

    As it stands, UsagiMan is a relatively pleasant surprise. It's free, it's fun, and it offers up an afternoon of entertainment if you can deal with the sometimes annoying ads.

    Doctor Who: Legacy might not be a love letter to the series, but it's clearly in love with it. If you share that loyalty, there's plenty of fun to be had with the game.

    For the price, this game is a pretty safe purchase for any fan of Duke or action games.

    It's on the cusp of something really good with the battles, but the lack of variety hurts that end of things the same way it hits the whole game.

    Joe Danger Infinity has a terrific theme, sure to be fun for everyone who plays it, and will keep you coming back to beat your best and keep climbing the leaderboards.

    I didn't initially expect much from Sugar Roll but came away pleasantly surprised. It has a decent amount of charm, a soothing soundtrack, and some superb level design -- especially later in the game. If you can deal with some particularly difficult stages and resist the urge to buy power-ups via the IAP system, you'll get along just fine.

    This is probably King's best game on iOS since Candy Crush, though it still falls well short of it.

    It isn't going to offer you high quality visuals that push your device to the edge, nor is it going to push the envelope for racers in general. But if you just want to kill some time trying to get a car from one spot to another and put in the time to learn the ins and outs, Jet Car Stunts 2 is the perfect way to spend an afternoon.

    Developer Grumpyface Studios does nearly everything right in making a highly enjoyable TD game in Castle Doombad, and you owe it to yourself to check it out.

    It's very simple to learn, but there's a huge amount of depth to the game.

    While Feed Me Oil 2 is wrapped in a rather pretty package, it's still fundamentally the same game as it predecessor, and doesn't push the puzzle genre in any way. Having said that, if you loved the original, this one is a no-brainer.

    This all adds up to a sequel that exceeds the original in every possible way. While I was initially worried about the IAP in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, I was really pleased to find the whole game was accessible without dipping into it or grinding.

    If you enjoy difficult puzzle games, and haven’t yet tried this game, you owe it to yourself to give it a shot. The controls carry over well, it’s fun, and it’ll take you a while to get through all the chambers.

    With challenging gameplay complemented by some much-needed depth, Castle Raid 2 is a great sequel to a good original game.

    Despite a lack of high-concept features, MovieCat 2 manages to capture the fun of the original game with an updated collection of trivia

    Oasis is a beautiful game with an interesting story and some interesting ideas.

    If you’re in the market for a new dual-stick shooter, definitely give Hero Siege a try.

    To sum this whole review up, it all comes down to whether or not you have a controller. If you do, then getting this excellent version of the game for such a low price is a steal. If you don't, it's not the most expensive curiosity, but that's all it is for all but the most dedicated and patient.

    This is a good, well-made Ridge Racer game for your mobile device

    Set against the overall iOS gamebook landscape, it's hard to recommend unless you're a big fan of the genre.

    Fightback is a game that will let you have some fun, but for only less than ten minutes at a time, and only if your character's stats and gear are up to date

    As a fan of this series, I've gotten used to being disappointed in recent years. Still, I expected better from Ratchet & Clank: Before the Nexus.

    I can't speak to its faithfulness to the subject matter, but it feels like it's very respectful towards it, while still keeping things approachable and fun for the layperson. Fiz: The Brewery Management Game isn't perfect, but it's a very strong first effort for Bit By Bit Studios, and I hope they stick around in the sim scene.

    It helps that the game is essentially free if you have the fortitude to deal with ads (mostly after a sequence of levels and not during gameplay), so give it a try if you're longing for a fun puzzle game.

    If you're looking for a unique puzzle game that will occasionally challenge and frustrate you, Cyro will do the trick.
