  • Angry Birds Epic

    Oh boys, what to say about a new big free-to-play game on iOS, and an Angry Birds one at that. Since they’re marketing this as an RPG, I was curious to try it out. The combat is surprisingly fun, and it feels well developed – although not super advanced, you do upgrade both the classes…

  • The Cave

    I’m not quite sure why I hadn’t played this yet – I did get it when it first came out (on PS3), but for some reason hadn’t played much. Watching all of the Amnesia Fortnight videos put me in a mood to play it again, and I’ve been having such a good time with it.…

  • Eliss Infinity

    I still remember the original Eliss, and it being one of the first cool “art” style games to come out on iOS, as a sign of the truly amazing games we would eventually start seeing on the platform. Eliss is back, this time in the form of Eliss Infinity, and it’s just as fun and…

    I’m pretty sure everyone is already playing this on iOS, and with reason. Everything about this game is stellar, from the art direction, animations, and sound effects, to the simple and addictive gameplay. Make 3s (duh) and then match them to create larger multiples. Pictured here is the highest score I’ve been able to get…

  • SolForge

    Speaking of great digital card games, another one I’ve been playing of late is SolForge, available for both iPad and iPhone. I believe this game was Kickstarted a while back, and it’s free-to-play, meaning you start with a couple of theme decks to play with, and then can buy more decks, packs of cards, etc.…

  • Lego Star Wars Microfighters

    ,

    Why am I playing this? I like Lego, I like Star Wars, and I like top-down shooters. It’s a decent play so far, and as you’d expect from a Lego game, the cut scenes are silly and fun. I certainly feel like I’m getting my buck’s worth.

  • Joe Danger Infinity

    ,

    I’ve been a big fan of all the Joe Danger games, both on console and on iOS – last year’s Joe Danger Touch was one of my favorite iOS games of the year – and I’m so happy to be having just as much fun with the new Joe Danger Infinity (iOS). It’s so damn…

  • Star Trek Trexels

    —

    ,

    When I first heard about this game – before it came out – I thought it had the makings of something pretty cool, based on the pixelated aesthetics, and the fact that it uses music and sound effects from the original TV series. Then, when it came out, I was turned off by what I…
