eBoy FixPix

This is a puzzle game unlike any other. You simply tilt your iPhone to align the misaligned pictures. That’s it. And the reason that this game gets an 8 is because the art is so good, you genuinely want to see more. You are driven to keep going because the rewards...

Tower Defense Lost Earth

Tower Defense Lost Earth is exactly what it sounds like--a tower defense game through and through. They even managed to register the phrase “Tower Defense” as a trademark. Ballsy. In fact, that cocky little ® kind of turned me off to the game at first. But I went into it...

Space Miner: Space Ore Bust

It seems like a really good idea, and it starts off well enough, but the longer you play Space Miner, the more you realize how shallow it actually is. Space Miner takes Asteroids and throws a story and mild RPG elements into it. These enhancements are what pull you in...

Game Dev Story

Game Dev Story will keep you up very late. There's something about the feedback loop in this game that lands you in that ultra-sweet place called "just one more..." While playing Game Dev Story, I often thought that I should just quit and go to bed, but the...

Like most iPhone games that are considered "blockbusters", Cut the Rope has a unique puzzle mechanic that is genuinely fresh and an overall game flow that is unimaginative and dull. I suppose there's nothing wrong with a collection of puzzles with nothing to bind them to one another, if you like...

lilt line

This game is amazing in so many ways, but it suffers from too many issues. The music and visuals make this game shine. It's minimalist in its visuals, and for a rhythm game, it's so wonderful that the developers chose dubstep music--the genre alone is tricky to comprehend...

Drift Sumi-e

Man, with an aesthetic like this, and a strange yet intriguing genre mash-up between racing and painting, it's a shame that this game isn't longer, better, faster, and somehow... more. I absolutely love the idea behind this game. It's elegant--a quality that too many games lack. But the...

geoDefense

This flashy little game is what Geometry Wars would look like if it were a tower defense game. And at the beginning, you kind of think that this game is going to be just as good as Geometry Wars, albeit in a different genre. And then you make it to...
