    Slender gets bigger and better. A great survival horror that only lacks some deeper gameplay mechanics, but still a game fans of the original Slender game will love.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's as long, intense and replayable as the console version, but there are few additions to this one. Still, if you didn't play it when it was first released, and if you don't mind the new path the series has taken, RE 6 is a great option.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    This is a quite simple game, that works as a complement for the toys franchise. Sure, it has some moments of fun, which will be more than enough for some fans.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 65 Critic Score
    This is probably a great choice for the fans of the genre, even though there are some more complete options out there. If you've already tried them, this will bring you some fun both off and online.

    • 94 Critic Score
    A must-have, one of the games of the year, that gives meaning to this world of entertainment. We would have loved to see the same audiovisual ambition applied to the gameplay, or at least, some kind of attempt of bringing something new to it. Still, this is one of the masterpieces of the genre that you cannot miss.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    It's a new perspective to the genre, both because of its difficulty and its great are design. If you like tower defense games, you should try this one.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    The mission system may be something some players will dislike, compared to the freedom of the original. However, it has many hours of gameplay to offer, and the new multiplayer mode is a great addition that will make us forget about that.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    There are some issues, but its gameplay is as good as always and there's content enough to keep us playing for months. Keep in mind, though, you'll need a Wii U to play online.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    We could say it's pretty much a masterpiece. Fun, entertaining, curious, complete and addictive, it's hard to find something to complain about it.
    • 75 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    Following the steps of the PS2 titles, Sly returns to bring another adventure that fans of the series will appreciate. Recommended for those who are tired of big dramas, covering systems and plans of world domination.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is a great graphic adventure from every perspective: storytelling, plot, gameplay… If you love the genre and/or science fiction, The Silent Age is a very recommended option.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Extremely addictive and fun, this is one of the best indie games you can find these days. If you're looking for plain fun, this is one of the best choices.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    It's not very original, but it's addictive and accessible, two good reasons to give it a try.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    It's a pleasure having such a game on PSVita. The quality is pretty much the same we've seen in the console versions, with some nice additions and the lack of the 2v2 mode.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's a nice idea in a genre where everything seems to be already imagined. We miss some extra modes, but it will keep us playing for a while.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    There are many problems that prevent us from recommending it. A poor AI, a short campaign and a multiplayer meant to be forgotten. We really hope that all the good ideas left behind finally surface if City Interactive decides to continue with the series.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    The quality of this new Gears is outstanding and the new approach certainly suits it, but the overall feelings we've got are not that good. Maybe it's just that Gears of War 3 is too close in time, but, in any case, People Can Fly has done a great job that will satisfy the fans of the series and anyone looking for lots of action.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    It's not an app that will reinvent the genre, but it offers good graphics, nice physics and well-designed levels. There's no revolution here, but it's interesting for both kids and adults.
    • 59 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A great choice for the fans of the series. It may not be perfect, but it's entertaining and offers some remarkable aspects.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 91 Critic Score
    This is a great approach to the GTA concept, with extremely fun and different missions, and a wise use of the GamePad functions. If you really like the genre, you shouldn't miss this opportunity.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    This is an interesting hack & slash, with a lot of content and a nice –even though not very surprising– story. The controls should have been improved, but still it's a great option.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It's a great expansion that takes a step forward from all we've seen previously. There are more situations in the campaign, a more competitive multiplayer and it's more accessible for new players. It's not perfect, but it'll keep us playing for a long while.
    • 64 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Controversy and technical issues aside, SimCity is deep, full of details and very accessible. No matter if you like this kind of game or not, we think it deserves a try.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    This is one of those games that, from a simple idea, creates an addictive and fun experience.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    A great alternative to the annual simulator, but there are some options missing (offline multiplayer, time attack) that should be included in this kind of title.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    There's still room for improvement, but it's a must-have for those looking for a shooter on 3DS, even if they've played the Wii U version.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    We could say it's a "Double A", rather than a Triple A, but still it's a step forward that won't disappoint the fans of the series.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    If you don't know them, or just want to replay them, this is a great HD adaptation of the original games. These games, anyway, have aged pretty well, and the extras included are a great excuse to enjoy them one more time.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 66 Critic Score
    Get ready for a lot of humor and action. We believe 3DS deserves a bigger and better, more ambitious Naruto game, but if you already know this is a humble proposal, then you will certainly enjoy this game.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    It's hard, eventually hard and well designed. There's nothing outstanding, but everything is correct. However, we don't really understand why it's so focused on in-app purchases when we have already paid for it.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    Maybe it's not the ultimate Naruto game, but it's pretty close. There are some issues that prevent it from becoming really outstanding, but it's absolutely recommended for any fan of the adventures of the popular ninja.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 76 Critic Score
    It's fun and entertaining, but there are some issues that we would like to see fixed. We can't deny, though, it has the potential to keep us killing monsters for a long while, no matter if alone or online, which is more than what many games can offer.
    • 80 Metascore
    • 92 Critic Score
    There's plenty of blood, stunning action, fun and a few puzzles in this game. It's Kratos losing his family, losing his mind and annihilating massive creatures. It's a God of War, and there's little we can say apart from that. You already knew if this game was meant for you or not.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    One of the best platforming and action games on 3DS. It's a must-have on the handheld, and works perfectly no matter if you've played Castlevania: Lords of Shadow or not.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's probably the most complete, fun and entertaining train simulator on the App Store. Probably it's not your cup of tea if you're not into the genre, but if you are, it's a great experience.
    • 93 Metascore
    • 98 Critic Score
    Except for the language (as long as you don't speak English), we can't really find anything negative about it. It's one of the best RGPs we've ever played, and it'll make worth it every penny you've spent on the handheld.
    • 62 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Not very original, but it brings loads of fun to the Sniper Elite V2 concept. It's more action-driven than the main series, but if you're looking for a game meant to be played with friends, this is one of the most interesting choices.
    • 87 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    There's a lot of care put into detail here, with both fans of Star Wars and pinball games in mind. Highly recommended if you're a fan of the genre, and a must-have if you love the Pinball FX series.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Impossible platforming, full of nostalgia wrapped up by a great design. It's a simple offer, but its difficulty will keep us playing for way too long.
    • 60 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    Maybe it's too late for karaoke games to succeed, or maybe it's hard to bring something new to the genre. Yes, it's better than the Wii version, but even the use of the GamePad doesn't really help it to make it stand above other similar games.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    Behind its impressive visuals, there's a game with plenty of options, meant to stay for a long time on our devices. The free-to-play model might be controversial, but after all, it allows the player to decide whether keep on playing or not.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Brilliant. It's original, addictive and has loads of contents. It brings the original formula to the iDevices and improves it, offering one of the best role and strategy games we've seen for iOS.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Recommended if you don't have any other platform to enjoy the game on. It's a great action title, but the additions won't justify a second or third purchase if you already have this title.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    This is a step forward for the series rather than a revolution. There are indeed some improvements, but it's probably recommended for those looking for these strategic elements included. Otherwise, you might want to keep an eye on Dynasty Warriors 8.
    • 61 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    A great adaptation from the console version, that maybe lacks some content. Sega has promised that will keep on updating the app and bringing new levels, so if they do, there's little to complain about.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    Shootings, platforming, puzzles, exploration and a great visual experience rewrite the story – and history – of Tomb Raider. This is a beautiful adventure that everyone will enjoy, except those expecting a classic Tomb Raider game.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Maybe it's not an extremely incredible closure for the trilogy, but there are plenty of options to beat every level, it's fun, and the multiplayer modes are finally as engaging as we wanted. And of course visually stunning, with a great job done both on PC and consoles.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    It's a new path in the genre, with a great use of the free-to-play concept. It's innovative and simple, and will give any user loads of fun.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It's not a bad game, but there's nothing new here or worth highlighting. There are some good ideas, but it's probably recommended for those who want to take a break from the 'big' shooters.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    There are several hidden gems in here, so you might find some interesting surprises. As a collection it's as good as we expected it to be, but taking into account the price of the individual games, you should probably go for those you really need to complete your collection.
    • 51 Metascore
    • 53 Critic Score
    It's like it's fifth movie. It gives you nothing relevant, looks alright and it's not very interesting if you're not a fan of the series. It's a nice attempt, but it's still far from such a special series as Die Hard.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 83 Critic Score
    It's a great hack & slash that works pretty well as a Metal Gear spin-off. The last part of the title seems rushed, and there are certain glitches that may darken the experience, but it'll bring many unforgettable moments that can be only created by Kojima and Platinum Games.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    It's simple but hard to master, and eventually addictive. A very nice experience, together with a very nice presentation, make Wake the Cat a recommended game for those who are looking for an entertaining app.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It offers almost everything you could ask from a puzzle game: it's easy to play, intellectually challenging, fresh and visually appealing. We would have like it a little bit longer, but still it's a great choice for those who want to challenge themselves.
    • 53 Metascore
    • 50 Critic Score
    If it introduces all the promised improvements we could see a good title, but so far, the offer is quite repetitive. Yes, it's free-to-play, but it needs a lot of 'farming' if we want to unlock all the regions, so if you like the game, you should consider buying the complete experience for $20.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 72 Critic Score
    It's a Facebook game turned into an iOS. It's not very original, even though is entertaining and engaging. It's partially based on the free-to-play concept, so eventually we might face some money-demanding situations.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    The perfect game for those who grew up playing 16 bit games and watching Rambo movies. Loads of 2D action, fun and platforming in this title, that fits pretty well in the PSVita scheme.
    • 45 Metascore
    • 62 Critic Score
    It's a very generic shooter, which seems to be one of the games we saw at the beginning at the generation or the end of the previous one. Certainly disappointing, there's a game here with several technical issues that still manages to be moderately fun.
    • 81 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    A great choice full of humor for those who want to get started in the genre. Long-time fans may find it easy, and we were expecting a deeper gameplay, but still a great recommendation.
    • 72 Metascore
    • 79 Critic Score
    Definitely not a surprise and quite simple. Maybe it's not very original, but we'll find here a reasonable amount of fun and platforming for a reasonable price.
    • 63 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    It's a shame some technical issues make this version fall behind the "big ones", since it could have been a serious rival for Mario Kart. We'll need to get used to issues though, and in the end we will be able to enjoy it.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 68 Critic Score
    Just fun in a straight-forwarded way. Having dinosaurs is one of the key elements that makes it different and enjoyable, however, we think there's no enough content to keep us playing after a few hours.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Taking into account that those games have around ten years behind them, there's a pretty good adaptation to the standard visuals we enjoy today. You'll find some issues with the interface and navigation, but it's the price to pay to enjoy and relieve these great infiltration titles.
    • 77 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    The mere fact of Ace Combat on PC is great news. It's not very well-adapted to the mouse and keyboard layout, but the graphic improvement is worth it. In any case, it's a great action game, whether you like the series or not.
    • 55 Metascore
    • 58 Critic Score
    Even being quite repetitive, if you're a fan of the manga and the genre, then you'll probably find here what you're looking for. If you're not, you should try it before.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 87 Critic Score
    A new experience in puzzle games that will keep us playing for a long while. There's a whole new way of solving enigmas while we learn some things about real life thanks to the philosophical clues the game gives us.
    • 91 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    It's addictive, complete and entertaining. Maybe it's not the only and the one puzzle game, but it's not far from it.
    • 78 Metascore
    • 86 Critic Score
    Even if this episode has turned the series into a action game – even though there's many survival horror fans out there – we must admit it's a very good game. It provides great closure for the trilogy: long, spectacular and relatively different, but keep in mind that terror is not the main theme any longer.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's a great game with a great offer. There's plenty of options and a very interesting 'free-to-play' concept, since you can buy new 'machines' buy always trying them before deciding. If you're looking for a realistic pinball game, this may be your choice.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    You may think the App Store is full of games like this, but this one is full of simplicity in order to make its gameplay shine. It's racing and arcade taken to a simple, but fun and addictive level.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Behind its weird visuals there's actually a game that's quite fun. We might be shocked at the beginning, but once we get used to what it has to offer we'll find ourselves engaged in a bunch of hours of entertainment.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    There are little additions this time, but still it's incredibly fun and addictive. If you enjoyed the first game you'll probably love this one, since it's just a tiny step forward, but a step forward anyway.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    It's not going to be remembered as the perfect game, but it's fun and engaging. It also offer a reasonable free-to-play model, so we think it's worth giving a try.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    We were expecting something different. The thing is we spend too much time doing our maths and little busting ghosts. Its free-to-play model won't allow us to play normally without playing, so keep it in mind.
    • 25 Metascore
    • 45 Critic Score
    As an experiment is a total failure. It's boring and repetitive, and its in-app purchase system is sometimes abusive. No matter if you like the series or not, there are better other options out there.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    We get the feeling that this universe is trying to reinvent itself, bringing very original elements to its proposal, something that we appreciate taking into account the situation of the genre. There's still room for improvement, but it is indeed a very interesting start that we hope will get better with further updates.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    One of the most interesting and fresh puzzles we've seen lately for these devices. It may look simple, but it gets harder and harder, and mastering it will take us a while.
    • 57 Metascore
    • 55 Critic Score
    It's quite repetitive, and even if visually pleasant, there's little fun to be found here. Somehow it feels incomplete and we can't really recommend it unless you try it first for yourself.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    Maybe we were expecting too much, but it's alright. It's entertaining and will make us smile, but there's no evolution or surprises here. We know it's just warming up for what's yet to come, however, if you miss those classic adventure games probably you'll enjoy this.
    • 66 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    A very fresh option, which is even better taking into account there are not too many games like this in the current market. Yes, it's not perfect, but we'll find so much action, and so many spectacular battles that we'll quickly forget about those minor issues.
    • 67 Metascore
    • 84 Critic Score
    This is a perfect example of a free-to-play title. There's all the content available, and paying for anything is just an option rather than an imposition. On the top of that, is fun, entertaining and full of options.
    • 68 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    Under an almost PS2 visuals, there's a great game. It's extremely fun and addictive, and if you missed its original release on Xbox 360, you can grab this version that adds new levels and enemies, and even a new character that will give a twist to its gameplay. Don't let the graphics mislead you.
    • 83 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Yes, it is quite "similar" to some other games out there. However it's almost infinite, full of possibilities and very fun. Might be hard to play on small devices, but being free we think it deserves a try.
    • 79 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    It brings the original formula one step closer to perfection, improving its visuals and gameplay. There's nothing extremely special under the new version, but it's free and still fun, so there's no reason to stick to the previous one.
    • 44 Metascore
    • 60 Critic Score
    Ideal for short and intense sessions, but has some control issues that might make it hard for certain people. It takes around 7 hours to be completed, which is ok, however we still miss some additional options to make it last a little bit longer.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    It's fun and engaging, but, as a free-to-play, we'll need to invest some money when we reach a certain point. However, it's worth a try, since there's been a lot of care put into it.
    • 85 Metascore
    • 95 Critic Score
    It's hard to find weaknesses in this game. If you don't like it probably it's just because you'd rather play something else. But Ni No Kuni is way more than just pretty graphics or a nice story: it's one of the best RPGs on PlayStation 3.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 75 Critic Score
    With a better art direction we could've been playing an epic game, but it feels a little repetitive sometimes. However, the multiplayer modes is charming and will offer us a great experience. It's definitely worth a try.
    • 73 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    Behind an entertaining game we find a critic message: "politics is indeed a game". If we manage to get into the dynamics of the title we'll be spending a long time playing this game and learning the secrets of this world somehow unknown to most of us.
    • 88 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    It brings back the formula seen on consoles, so this should be enough to picture what it has to offer: many hours of fun, a great gameplay, and loads of secrets, achievements, tricks and contents waiting to be unlock. We only miss multiplayer modes, but still is a very recommended option.
    • 41 Metascore
    • 40 Critic Score
    The last thing we will do in Seduce Me is seduce someone. This is a card game that will show us naked ladies, but there's little value to our actions or decisions. We think there's plenty of better options out there, no matter if you're looking pro a card-based, erotic or even pornographic games.
    • 86 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    If you can leave all the controversy aside, you'll find an experience any action game fan will like. Its polished gameplay, its stunning art and its frenetic proposal are certainly something you should try.
    • 69 Metascore
    • 78 Critic Score
    This is what Ninja Gaiden 3 should have been when it was first released. Tecmo and Team Ninja have listened to their fans and offered a great game, but it's still far from perfect. If you're going to play the game, make sure you play this version.
    • 70 Metascore
    • 77 Critic Score
    A nice surprise that Mega Man fans will like. A great arcade presentation that will keep us entertained for a long while.
    • 71 Metascore
    • 80 Critic Score
    This is one of those games that, in a few years, might become a classic no one understood. If you want to make the most of it, jump into the multiplayer modes as soon as you can.
    • tbd Metascore
    • 70 Critic Score
    As a free app will bring us many hours of fun, even though there's still room for improvement. If a later update brings us those missing elements –like multiplayer modes– you can add some extra points to the mark. So far, recommended for big LEGO fans.
    • 82 Metascore
    • 85 Critic Score
    Yes, it's short, but it's one of those games only an indie developer can make. It's special, addictive and fun, and a must-have for those who love platforming titles.
    • 84 Metascore
    • 90 Critic Score
    This is an unique title, above all in the West. It's worth a try, and will manage to keep us playing for a long while. On the top of that, getting all the endings may take around 30 hours, so if you like this kind of games, this one is definitely a must have.
    • 74 Metascore
    • 82 Critic Score
    Nothing new or surprising here, but it does work. It's simple and addictive, visually stunning and an universal app. We can't tell if it's going to be a new hit, but it has all the ingredients to become one.
    • 76 Metascore
    • 88 Critic Score
    A perfect choice for those who enjoyed the saga on PC. It's engaging and surprisingly well adapted to the iDevices. There's many options for the player and a great amount of missions to complete.
