I've been converted! Don't expect me to start wearing Angry Birds T-Shirts all of a sudden, or going back and playing the original. But who knew that sticking an already strange pairing of birds and pigs, and launching them into an off-worldly environment, would turn me around. But, unfortunately for me, it has.

It tries to infuse some mystery, but in the end you run around doing errands in a quite linear experience. Still it is highly enjoyable to learn new recipes to collect for, and then cook. Finding new foodstuff, and solve the mystery of the island.

It's a nice looking, well presented game, with sharp visuals that really pop out on the iPhone. The levels are especially nice to look at and are vibrant and full of colour.

Coco Loco may have fallen to the wayside as another Angry Birds clone if it weren't for the obvious love and polish that went into practically every aspect of the game. The graphics absolutely pop on the iPad (the game is universal, so it works on the iPod and iPhone as well), and the liquid and gel physics behave exactly as one would expect.

Little Acorns is real treat, and I am glad I overcame my initial qualms. No matter if you are three years old, or forty you will be able to enjoy the game. The three year old will enjoy the graphics, and easy to get into controls. The more mature games will enjoy the challenge, and great level design.

Granted, it's not some cheap mini-game or crappy animated comic, but it still feels more like a quickly-planned tie-in than a full standalone experience.

Despite the control issues Incoboto has a lot going for it. I found it offers up one of the best puzzle platformers on the AppStore. Even if it doesn't feature a Mario and Glados face-off!

A fantasy filled slice of wonder. It comes as no surprise to me that many aspects of this game reminds me of kids shows – old and new – as I think it will be kids that will get the most from this game.

Just do the right thing in the next update THQ: bring back the Hitman.

Diggin' Dogs borrows the perspective, and some of the control mechanics from the green crocodile from Disney, but in the end it is a completely unique experience. If you are looking for a challenging puzzler with a lot of game time, and cute dogs you can't go wrong with Diggin' Dogs.

Yes, there is only one game mode, and there's nothing to unlock or achieve, but this is one of those games that drives you to play it without any quirky gimmics. It's insanely easy to pick up and play when you have literally a minute or two to spare, and the mysterious stats page really makes me wonder what I will discover if I can stay in the game for just a few more seconds than last time.

The controls are tight, and especially the levels that forces the pizza to balance on a skull across a pit of spikes takes some real focus. Personally I really would have liked a touch controls option to complement the usage of the accelerometer.

One part of me wanted something more radical, while the other yearned for more of the same. After completing the first chapter though, both these feelings dispersed and I was just left with a simple primal urge to punch a scientist in the face, collect each briefcase and do it all in the quickest time. So what if it is pretty much the same game as before… it's still awesome, and I'm hungry for more!

Rebuild is a fresh entry in the zombie genre letting you play from a top down city planning perspective. Random cities with a lot of variation give each play trough some new challenges. A part of me would still like to see a campaign mode, and I keep my fingers crossed for a Rebuild 2 in the future.

Like many success stories on the AppStore, it's the simplicity that makes Beat Sneak Bandit shine. On the face of it it looks like any other platformer, with elements from classics such as Donkey Kong, Manic Miner and Mario. But by injecting it all with rhythm, Simogo have created something truly unique.

Boy Loves Girl is a perfect start to a niche series that could include Girl Loves Boy, Boy Loves Bunnies and Girl Loves the Neighbour. For Valentine´s Day it is a perfect gift with an icon showing your love. It will of course work well at other times, as well and I think it is a good title to have in your arsenal of gifts.

Considering this is essentially a remix of a three year old PSP and arcade game I would have expected this game to be priced lower. Having said that, you get what you pay for, and even at a higher price I would argue that it's worth every penny.

It's a great game, and all bullet hell fans owe it to themselves to pick this up. The sheer detail of the sprite graphics, crazy over the top weapons and explosions, combined with the usual techno/classic/rock music mix, ensures a shooter experience that only CAVE can offer.

Those interested into a turn based strategy game with a proper story will still have a great deal of fun with the game, as will those who keeps Lovecraft art on the wall and his writings under the pillow.

Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective gripped me right away, and held me in a strong grip for more than eight hours. Finding out what had happened soon became something I pondered when making dinner, or riding my bike to work. Few games has this effect on me, but this NDS classic certainly has the story few games can rival.

There's a thin line between challenging and frustrating. Epic Game avoids being an Epic Fail because even though it may seem a little too hard at times, you'll be back to conquer it after you've sellotaped your hair back to your scalp (because you tore it out, see?)

Royal Trouble: Hidden Adventures is a fresh game well worth trying out since the first rooms are free.

A great entry in the physics puzzle genre bringing fresh level design challenging to both newbies, and the hardcore fans of the genre. There are better games out there in the physics puzzle genre with the now mandatory level editor, and peer sharing of levels such as Casey´s Contraptions. What sets Furmins apart is the excellent graphics, and challenging level design.

The deciding factor then is the multiplayer. It gives the game far more legs than the competition, and will no doubt sit as the dominant Arcade racer on your iOS home-screen. That is until the next super-sprint-style game hits the AppStore – no doubt in a few weeks.

Ash II: Shadows is a mixed bag of witty dialogue, interesting story, nice 16-bit graphics, technical issues with the sound, too little challenge and too little character development. I think those who have already invested time in the first game should consider continuing.

I found it to be incredibly thin, which is a shame since I like the concept, artwork and 8-bit music.

All in all though, as good looking and charming as it is, it needs a little more imagination. And for a game who's main character is a cardboard box and lives in a land of paper, that's saying something.

If you're a fan of the show, you'll likely get a kick (or a decapitation) out of it, but with The AppStore creaking under the weight of current zombie titles, it'll take something with a little more of a twist to stand out.
