    I bought the iOS version of this very popular board game a few months ago, but for some reason just never got around to playing it. One thing I’ve discovered over the years is that although I am happy to see so many physical board games get translated to iOS, I also don’t end up…

  • The Banner Saga

    As included on my list of favorite games of the year, The Banner Saga is indeed a fantastic game, but I’m especially happy to be playing it now on iPad. As much as I loved it before, I make no secret of the fact that I don’t really like playing games on my laptop, and…

  • Tales from the Borderlands

    To be honest, I wasn’t expecting to really get into this series, considering I don’t have that much interest in the franchise – I only played a few hours of the first game, and it just didn’t grab me. But wow, I thoroughly enjoyed this first episode, to the point where not only can I…

    One of my most anticipated games this year was Telltale’s take on Game of Thrones, and the other day I played through episode 1 on iPad (I play all Telltale games on iPad, my platform of choice for that type of game). It starts out slow, and at first I wasn’t digging the aesthetics at…

    You all picked up Simogo’s The Sailor’s Dream when it came out for iOS, right? Right? Again, just a fantastic game, and one that shows how interesting a gaming experience you can create on iOS. I played it on iPad, which I think is best for really taking in the visuals – although it does…

    I wasn’t really interested in trying this game out, especially when it was released on iPad and people were talking about the excessive purchasable in-game currency. But a friend said he was having fun with it, so I decided to give it a spin, and have ended up having fun with it. It’s not perfect…

  • Joe Dever’s Lone Wolf

    This iOS version of the the classic Lone Wolf choose-your-own-adventure books has been out for a while, but with today’s release of episode 3 (there will be 4 in all) they’ve made the first episode free, which was enough to tempt me to try it. I do have a lot of love for the original…

    This is a new free-to-play MOBA that is available only on iPad, and having gone through the tutorial and played a few rounds with bots, I’m quite liking it so far. I do like playing MOBAs, and the reason I don’t play DOTA 2 or League of Legends is mostly because they don’t run great…
