Enchanted Fairy Friends: Secret of the Fairy Queen Review
Enchanted Fairy Friends: Secret of the Fairy Queen is a calming, laid-back hidden object game filledwith lush, green scenes and set to a pleasant score composed of meandering wind instruments and lightly dancing strings - ideal ingredients to help one kick back and relax. If only a little more attention had been paid to the puzzles themselves, it would have been an easy recommendation.
Miss Popularity Review
Explore your own signature style, make friends, shop at the mall and win the boy of your dreams in the new simulation game Miss Popularity. Each choice you make in this 3D virtual world will impact the outcome of your character and your social standing.
Hot Dish Review
One of the more interesting takes on the time management genre we've seen in recent months, surprise gem Hot Dish serves up a heaping helping of fun. No matter your culinary skills, it's worth having a look at, if only to see how much room remains for innovation in the category - especially when such enhancements prove this easy to swallow.
Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords Review
Classical fantasy trappings and detailed role-playing infrastructure aside, Puzzle Quest: Challenge of the Warlords proved a surprise hit on consoles like the Nintendo DS and PlayStation Portable for one simple reason - it's a casual game at heart. So don't be so quick to dismiss the outing, just because you're not the sort who usually appreciates the complexity of Dungeons & Dragons-style romps or balks at the thought of playing swordsman or spellcaster. To do so would in fact be a major stumble, causing you to miss one of the year's most unsung gems, especially with the tale now available in a specially-enhanced edition for PC owners to enjoy as well.
Dr. Daisy Pet Vet Review
From restaurants, witch's dens and weddings to daycare centers, bakeries and hair salons, the "micromanagement" casual games are one of the hottest genres today. A new game, Dr. Daisy Pet Vet, introduces a budding veterinarian as the heroine of the story. It's good, and animal lovers will enjoy it, but it's not as good as other entries in the genre (most notably Diner Dash), nor is it a wholly unique offering.
