Atlas Raider Review
By Joe Jasko
As far as treasure-themed Facebook games go, Atlas Raider is certainly not a looker, and there was a lot about the initial gameplay that underwhelmed me right off the bat. But as I got ready to simply write the game off and do some backyard raiding of my own, I suddenly realized that several hours had gone by: and that I was actually having fun and didn't want to stop playing. And that's exactly the kind of game that Atlas Raider turns out to be.Big Bang West Review
By John Anthony
The North American west in the 1800s was a rough time: settlers striking out across vast expanses of land to create new homes, resources always at a minimum, and some bossy person with a cursor always telling you what to do. Ok, so that last bit is exclusive to Big Bang West, a light-hearted simulation game that lets you build in the frontier one small town at a time. But the rest holds true!Heads Up! Review
By Nadia Oxford
"Bigfoot teaching psychology to boars!" "A kitten in a racecar!" "A pony giving a lap dance!" If you've ever played Charades or Pictionary, then you're already familiar with some of the crazy guesses that your friends and family typically belt out when they're trying to guess the person, place, or thing you're drawing or acting out. Heads Up!, a party game promoted by talk show host Ellen DeGeneres, works on the same principle of acting like a fool for laughs. It delivers nicely, though some issues keep it from being a top-notch party game.Rebirth of Fortune 2 Review
Striking a balance between depth and accessibility has often been a hassle in strategy RPGs. Some games aren't deep enough and others are too difficult. A select few games take the Goldilocks route and are just right. Rebirth of Fortune 2 comes close to finding that balance, but slow-paced battles and imbalanced multiplayer take away from what is otherwise a fun experience.Legacy Tales: Mercy of the Gallows Review
By Brandy Shaul
Legacy Tales: Mercy of the Gallows is an instantly striking hidden object puzzle game that has everything it takes to pull players in. Great voice acting in the initial cutscene speaks of a lifelong romance that actually wasn't: as the wife of a noble captain vanishes, and the captain is found dead on the coast of the ocean. While the game starts off with a bang, it quickly fizzles into a slow moving and ultimately disappointing experience.Frozen Synapse Review
The squad-based tactical shooter is a familiar face on the PC, but iOS evangelists don't often get to savor it on their platform of choice. The recent release of the uniquely challenging Frozen Synapse on iPad proves that not only can tactics games exist on the portable platform, but they can also thrive there.Sanctum 2 Review
By Andy Chalk
Sanctum 2 blends the action-packed first-person shooter genre with the strategic elements of tower defense games, and as a "Jack of all trades, master of none," it isn't particularly strong as either. But to employ yet another overused cliché - the whole being greater than the sum of its parts - it nonetheless manages to be an intense and surprisingly fun multiplayer blast-fest.Anomaly 2 Review
By Andy Chalk
Anomaly 2 is a well-polished and intense addition to the unusual "tower offense" sub-genre, but while its new "convoy-versus-towers" multiplayer twist is an interesting idea, in execution it leaves a little bit to be desired.
