    This is a fun game with cool graphics and music. It's very easy to get into and very easy to keep playing it. There's plenty of novelty to this game that makes it more than just a tapping game.

    There's a lot of fun to be had in the game without spending any money, since you can find bux floating around and you'll earn some with every level.

    Even though you see all of the enemies from your vantage point, you still can't help but feel that another one is going to pop out and surprise you. That, in combination with the odd visuals, make this quite the trippy game.

    This game is fantastic. I highly recommend it for anyone who likes shoot 'em up games, especially ones that are based in outer space.

    It is unbelievable that a game this complex costs only $0.99. It is worth at least three times that much. If you like adventure games mixed with arcade games, then you won't want to miss this.

    I definitely enjoyed Unstoppable Fist, with its fun mix of retro graphics, rocking chiptunes, simple gameplay, and an addictive objective: be unstoppable. And how can you resist a chance to be a character that looks like Brock Samson from "The Venture Bros."?

    It is so habit forming that it will keep you busy for hours without ever becoming boring. I have played this game for many hours and I'm sincerely looking forward to seeing what other surprises are in store.

    Amazing Alex is indeed amazing, and should appeal to any puzzle fan or anyone that likes games that make you think. Get ready to spend hours on your iPhone or iPad with this one.

    The fast-paced action and cartoony graphics make this game a winner. But what else would you expect from Chillingo?
    • Metascore: 83
    • Critic Score 100
    I think it's great when a game has levels that may take a few tries to complete, because you aren't able to rush through it and be bored.

    Chillingo has outdone itself with Worm vs Birds. I think it is one of their best games and is definitely worth the download.

    This is a fantastic addition to the endless runner genre. The graphics are smooth and bright, the design is impeccable and the plot development is clever.

    Flight has easily become my favorite game this week, and maybe one of the best casual games that has been released so far this year.
    • Metascore: 84
    • Critic Score 100
    This is definitely a fast-paced game, requiring quick reflexes and tactical skills. Call of Duty fans may want to give this game a shot.

    As far as augmented reality games go, this one is top-quality. The ghosts are hard to catch and they fight back, covering your screen with green slime or even cracking the glass. As far as Ghostbusters fandom goes, it is an entertaining and exciting way to feel like you are part of the team.

    The number of different control options seems to be a blessing and a curse.

    With Super Mole Escape, think of Jetpack Joyride, except it is vertical rather than horizontal. This alone makes the game feel refreshing and new, already worthy of being in your collection.

    The graphics and music are also excellent, and really hit home for someone that grew up with the retro classics.

    The graphics are crisp and look great on Retina devices, the music and sound effects are charming and humorous, and the gameplay is fun and addictive.

    Mikey Shorts is a game that truly has something for everyone. Want to have fun? Story mode. Looking for a serious challenge? Challenge mode. Mikey Shorts is well worth its $0.99 download price.

    This is a fantastic version of a traditional dungeon crawl.

    Everything from the central character being a lich to the obviously similar graphics pays homage to Warcraft.

    Breakout fans will definitely want to monkey around with this app.

    In a word, the graphics are stunning. Everything from the cutscenes to the details of the background buildings blurs the line between fantasy and reality that you just about forget you're playing a game.

    The game is rather simple, yet strangely addictive.

    Seriously, if you like arcade-style games, then you will not want to miss this one.

    One of the best games you can get for a buck.

    Like other Chillingo titles, such as Electric Tentacle and Cosmic Bump, Snail Bob features charming visuals and a fitting folk soundtrack. Combined with the fun and challenging puzzle solving, I'd say that this game is suitable for people of all ages.

    The game is all about reflexes and coordination, so you better think fast and make sure that Sugar Kid gets the least amount of harm done to him. I love the game because it's a real challenge, features delightfully fresh visuals, enchanting music, and how can you resist such unconventional characters? I'll definitely be cheering for Sugar Kid.

    I am a fan of free runner and endless runner games, and Polara definitely has what you need. Amazing visuals, captivating soundtrack, engaging and challenging gameplay, plenty of modes - it's all here.
