    There's nothing more satisfying than playing a good word game against a bunch of contenders. The App Store truly gives us ample opportunities to demonstrate how much…better…good we are than our peers at forming clever words and phrases. Wordament, previously a Windows Phone exclusive, makes strengthening your vocabulary easier—and more frenzied—than ever thanks to an intense format that pits you against hundreds of players at once. You can even earn a few achievements for your Xbox Live profile.

    Karateka Review

    By

    The original Karateka was a beat-em-up released across several computers and video game consoles through the '80s. Its papa was video game designer Jordan Mechner, who would go on to create a game called Prince of Persia. Maybe you've heard of it. The '80s version of Karateka looks a little primitive, but the concept driving it is still classic. It's long been ripe for an overhaul, and nearly thirty years later, here we are.

    Internet-based fandoms are thick with weird pairings, but here's a new one for you. What if Konami's classic run-and-gun Contra games hooked up with Anubis, the Egyptian god of judgment and mummification? You'd get Chaos Domain for iOS, an action title that combines guns, guns, and more guns with a protagonist that, for some reason, feels the need to crib Anubis's dark style.

    Eat Eat Hooray! Preview

    By

    Many of us are kind of self-conscious about our weight. We pick, we nibble, and we "couldn't possibly eat another bite," when in actuality we could happily stuff our faces into a black forest chocolate cake and eat our way out. With everyone being so finicky about their food, it's nice to see an iOS game that celebrates eating. It's even called Eat Eat Hooray! Yes! We agree! Hooray for sustenance!

    Magical Ride Review

    A witch's greatest enemy is not a dragon, a manticore, or even an animal control agent looking to tag and haul away her black cat. No, a witch's worst enemy is gravity, that grumpy old force of nature that already has big issues with humans flying around in machines and isn't a big fan of magic girls whipping through the air on broomsticks. Time to stop letting gravity push you around. Magical Ride for Facebook is an endless running/flying game (think Jetpack Joyride) that pits you against gravity's inexorable pull—not to mention fireballs, ghosts, and electrodes.

    Nemo’s Reef Review

    By

    Pixar's classic movie Finding Nemo brings to mind wide oceans, new friends, and seemingly hopeless quests fueled by love, hope, and determination. Unlike its source material, Nemo's Reef isn't about exploration or adventure—it's about staying on one spot and making that spot pretty. This mobile game starring the little clownfish and his overprotective dad doesn't boast an original premise, but it's nice to lord over Nature for a change instead of yet another city.

    If you're the type that would throw yourself under a bus to save your iPhone 5 from getting scuffed, here's some bad news: your iPhone doesn't love you. Your iPhone lacks a heart, soul, compassion, or even the warmth of running blood. Chances are good you already know this. Maybe you've even accepted it. But if you're still holding onto the hope that your phone will become sentient, grow arms, and give you a hug, you'll be happy to know that Hatch for iOS provides a happy medium: it lets your iPhone interact with you in the form of a rotund critter.
