Cubemen 2 Review
By Mike Rose
Last year's Cubemen put an intriguing spin on the tower defense genre, by allowing players to essentially position units around a blocky map and wait for the enemy to come knocking. With Cubemen 2, developer Three Sprockets hasn't exactly shaken up the original release, nor has it hindered the tried and tested formula.Bridgy Jones Review
"If the gameplay resonates with you" is one of the more maligned phrases in game reviewing. It's a cop out, like defining a word using the same word; but in some cases, like this one, it's just unavoidable. So, if touch-based bridge building resonates with you, then you might like Bridgy Jones.ScribbleMix Review
When Draw Something was released last year, its impact was unlike any mobile or social game before it. The game featured no competition, no scoreboard, and no achievements. Two players drawing pictures for one another was enough to make the game feel more social than most social games before it. Now, Disney has entered the drawing game space with ScribbleMix, which takes that simplicity of Draw Something and adds its own style. It lacks some originality, but it still manages to feel fresh and fun.The Swapper Review
By Mike Rose
I've been known to indulge in the occasional indie puzzle-platformer or five, so The Swapper looked right up my street. Turns out I wasn't wrong either - while the underlying concept of using clones to solve puzzles made for multiple people isn't exactly unique, the gorgeous art design coupled with the distilled rooms of puzzling glory make for an experience that sticks with you for days to come.House of 1000 Doors: Serpent Flame Review
By John Anthony
Giant snakes are destroying the world. No, seriously, they are! They hid deep within the Earth for centuries, waiting for the right time to attack. That time is now, and the only one who can stop them is a young woman named Kate, who has a nice leather jacket. House of 1000 Doors: Serpent Flame doesn't pull its punches when it comes to story or gameplay, and you'll find it's every bit as epic as the title suggests.Polygon Storm Review
Polygon Storm, the intergalactic geometry dodger from Glass Knuckle Games is a pretty interesting concoction. First try to imagine a minimalist's take on the "bullet hell" genre. Now strip away the bullets (yes, even your own), throw a little bit of Asteroids into the mix, and replace your starship with a vanity mouse cursor from some old shareware disk. Wait, I'm getting ahead of myself with that last bit. Those sparkly contrails emanating from the rear of your craft are one of many unlockables granted as you play. As a matter of fact, the entire game is built on a foundation of unlockable content, and I mean this quite literally.Namariel Legends: Iron Lord Review
By Brandy Shaul
Namariel Legends: Iron Lord has a rocky start, as its soft, blurry graphics don't offer a promising environment for exploration. But once the game begins, however, players are launched into a fairly tense journey to save our hero's uncle from the clutches of a robotic overload and his mechanical minions. Namariel Legends: Iron Lord isn't a perfect experience, but while the game suffers from some technical issues, it's still pretty fun where it counts.7 Grand Steps Review
By Andy Chalk
The circle of life; the wheel of time; the world goes 'round: they all apply to 7 Grand Steps, an absolutely fascinating strategy game that follows the long legacy of a single family over many generations and centuries, as it struggles to uplift itself from the humblest of beginnings to the upper echelons of power in the ancient world. More board game than video game, it's a slow and thoughtful look at the cycle of life and the machinations of history - and it will very likely ensnare you for hours.
