    Baseball Superstars 2013 Review

    By

    The major critique with sports games is the lack of change from one year to the next. Bugs from one year often appear in the future installments, and poorly-built features receive no modifications for the next season. Then, there's Baseball Superstars 2013. The newest installment in the series doesn't just learn from its previous mistakes - it makes extra adjustments that improve the experience.

    Gunslugs Review

    By

    When it comes to making new "retro" games, few mobile developers do it better than OrangePixel. This time, the studio has released Gunslugs, a side-scrolling shooter in the same vein as Metal Slug and Gunstar Heroes. Like its old-school brethren, Gunslugs provides action, difficulty, and a large supply of frustration. These pieces work together to create a deep and addictive mobile experience.

    Puppy Tales Review

    By

    The simplicity of most mobile titles can often blur the line between a cute little time-waster, and a quality videogame. There are a variety of games that seek to offer nothing but a short-but-sweet experience that provides an enjoyable and memorable time. With Puppy Tales, such a noble attempt falls well short of its goal, leaving behind a product that is both brief and unpolished.

    Ruzzle Review

    By

    Mobile platforms are perfect for asynchronous multiplayer word games. Ruzzle is a prime example of how to correctly approach one of these titles. The Boggle-inspired gameplay doesn't stand out from its peers, nor does it have much in the way of features. Despite the drawbacks, Ruzzle uses this simplicity to its advantage and provides an enjoyable, albeit forgettable, competitive word game.

    Gone Fishing Review

    By

    It was only a matter of time before it came to this. Social games have led us through farms, kingdoms, forests, trains, and so many other areas. It's one of the oldest hobbies and careers in the history of humankind. It's one of the most widely-participated sports in the world. You can do it alone, with family, or with friends. It's a social activity that has finally made its way into a social game. I speak, of course, of fishing.

    Virtua Tennis Challenge Review

    By

    For the first time, Sega has brought its famous tennis serious to mobile devices. Virtua Tennis Challenge is little more than a stripped down version of its console counterparts. You don't get to see big-name players like Federer, Nadal, or any of tennis' most famous women. The World Tour mode is barebones and there's zero online interaction. However, what it lacks in features and polish, it makes up for by serving up a great tennis experience.

    Zombies Crisis Review

    By

    One of the very first things I read upon starting up Zombies Crisis was the loading screen tip: "Get First-aid Packet and restore." As a writer, the grammatical issues with that sentence (if you can call it that) rub me the wrong way. It was an odd first impression, but an accurate one. What follows that loading screen is a jumbled mess of bad controls, repetitive gameplay, awful dialogue, and almost nothing positive to look back on.
