    • Metascore: 48
    • Critic Score 40
    Warm Gun
    With wonky controls and lacking even the most basic of features, Warm Gun is a multiplayer-only FPS that should be left alone.
    • Metascore: 61
    • Critic Score 40
    Real Soccer 2012
    Forget the freemium fluff: Real Football 2012's big problem is that its attempt to simulate the beautiful game is left sorely wanting, with jagged and jerky matches undermining all the social slop Gameloft's slapped on top.
    • Metascore: 46
    • Critic Score 40
    One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP
    Lacking in character and bloated in fetch work, Unlimited Cruise SP is a clumsily translated import that, just like the game's missing second episode, should have been buried at sea.
    • Metascore: 55
    • Critic Score 40
    Shinobido 2: Revenge of Zen
    Mediocre stealth action is the order of the day in this forgettable sequel.
    • Metascore: 67
    • Critic Score 40
    Midway Arcade
    A decent range of great value, genuine arcade classics neutered by poorly implemented controls.
    • Metascore: 58
    • Critic Score 40
    Plants War
    Even if you leave to one side its overtly aggressive freemium pricing scheme, Plants War is still an unpleasant and bland slog.
    • Metascore: 56
    • Critic Score 40
    Deer Hunter Reloaded
    If the thought of shooting innocent woodland animals in slo-mo through X-ray specs doesn't make you flinch from the game, the freemium costs probably will.
    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 40
    Bird Mania 3D
    There simply isn't enough to do, especially for a 3DS game. Throw in poor dialogue and barely evident stereoscopic 3D effects, and Bird Mania 3D just isn't worth your time.
    • Metascore: 77
    • Critic Score 40
    Yesterday
    Yesterday is as dark as a summer's day and as funny as a kick in the teeth. The puzzles are poorly designed and the story barely even makes sense. Leave this one in the past.
    • Metascore: 68
    • Critic Score 40
    Synesthetic
    This conceptually solid music-based tunnel racer gets it all wrong in the execution, with disorientating track layouts and dull gameplay.
    • Metascore: 56
    • Critic Score 40
    Party Wave
    A painfully simple pair of ideas that are executed poorly and endlessly recycled.
    • Metascore: 44
    • Critic Score 40
    Johnny Kung Fu
    Novel and at times rather pretty, yet also banal and ugly, only die-hard fans of LCD games need take on this disappointing downloadable.
    • Metascore: 57
    • Critic Score 40
    Oh Hi! Octopi!
    It might be cute, but Oh Hi! Octopi is tedious, finicky, and almost entirely incomprehensible
    • Metascore: 58
    • Critic Score 40
    Silent Hill: Book of Memories
    At best, it's a bland, repetitive Silent Hill-skinned dungeon-crawling grind. At worst, it's a vacuous vandalism of a treasured horror brand.
    • Metascore: 33
    • Critic Score 40
    Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified
    A passionless take on a great license. Only but the most battle hardened Call of Duty fans should even consider taking this one down to the range.
    • Metascore: 59
    • Critic Score 40
    Pokedex 3D Pro
    There's simply not enough here to warrant the ludicrous price tag. Only diehard Pokemon fans need apply.
    • Metascore: 49
    • Critic Score 40
    Dress to Play: Cute Witches!
    Yawn-inducing shmuppery in the guise of a dress-up game, this odd combination of genres doesn't work here, compounded by low production values and poor handling.
    • Metascore: 67
    • Critic Score 40
    Karateka
    A pretty atmosphere and reliance on nostalgia don't make up for the simple gameplay, low amount of content, and buggy nature of this release.
    • Metascore: 62
    • Critic Score 40
    Noble Nutlings
    Noble Nutlings tries to achieve that elusive Angry Birds-style charm and simplicity, but ends up being frustrating, expensive, and simply rather joyless.
    • Metascore: 48
    • Critic Score 40
    Little Amazon
    There might be a good game somewhere here, but Little Amazon feels far too cynical to recommend.
    • Metascore: 44
    • Critic Score 40
    Touch Battle Tank 3D
    Touch Battle Tank 3D has tanks, but not a whole lot else. Avoid, then avoid some more.
    • Metascore: 51
    • Critic Score 40
    Wide Sky
    As gorgeous as it looks, and as clever as it sounds, Wide Sky plays like a mess.
    • Metascore: 66
    • Critic Score 40
    Kairo
    An abstract, atmospheric exploration adventure near-ruined by a breathtakingly ill-conceived iOS port.
    • Metascore: 66
    • Critic Score 40
    Ghostbusters (2013)
    Lacking much of the tone that made the movies great, Ghostbusters is about as fun as being forced to slowly trudge through slime, and being overcharged for the pleasure of doing so at a faster rate.
    • Metascore: 58
    • Critic Score 40
    NFL Quarterback 13
    Like a blackout at the Super Bowl, NFL Quarterback 13 leaves you wondering where all the football gameplay went.
    • Metascore: 35
    • Critic Score 40
    Wreck-It Ralph
    Just like Fix-It Felix, Wreck-It Ralph on 3DS is short, plain, and not a lot of fun to be around.
    • Metascore: 41
    • Critic Score 40
    Lets Fish! Hooked On
    Let's Fish! Hooked On is not the fishing game you are looking for, on account of its glitchy, repetitive play.
    • Metascore: 71
    • Critic Score 40
    Temple Run: Oz
    Disney continues the trend of crap movie games with this poorly made and cynically produced retread of a game we're all very sick of.
    • Metascore: 63
    • Critic Score 40
    Fury of the Gods
    A dull little game that makes being a deity feel decidedly average, Fury of the Gods isn't worth your time.
    • Metascore: 56
    • Critic Score 40
    Danger Boat
    Danger Boat is a perfectly pleasant, but completely uneventful entry in a very tired genre. There are at least seventeen zillion better endless-runners on the App Store.
