    Kingdom Builder Review

    By

    Donald X Vaccarino is one of the most feted designers on the current scene, thanks to the highly creative offering of Dominion, his first game. He's continued delivering on that initial promise, with one of his recent offerings Kingdom Builder winning the coveted Spiel des Jarhes award in 2012. Now the game has made the transition onto iOS.

    Northmark: Hour of the Wolf Review

    By

    Northmark: Hour of the Wolf is one of a small group of games that work a tactical card game into a wider overarching framework of plot, blending in a few mini-games into the mix for good measure. Following in the grand tradition of the original Magic: the Gathering computer game from Microprose, these games can be extremely good. But that's a pretty big set of boots for Northmark to fill.

    Poker Knight Review

    By

    Instant Games is pretty confident you've never played anything quite like its new RPPG. You aren't seeing double, either. That extra 'P' is for poker, and Poker Knight really is a Role Playing Poker Game. It's time to put down the sword and pick up some cards, because that's what you'll need to survive this particular fantasy world on your iOS device.

    Spellstorm Preview

    By

    Spellstorm is an iOS-based collectable card game that features plenty of monsters, warriors, and combat. Frankly, that's a lot less frightening than the other image that the game's moniker conjures up—namely, a maelstrom of spelling tests sprung upon an unprepared class.

    Strike Solitaire Review

    By

    Big Fish Games had an unexpected hit with Fairway Solitaire, a golf-themed take on a well-known card game. Fairway's attraction went well beyond golf enthusiasts, keeping gamers of both genders (including yours truly) playing until the wee hours. It's natural other developers would try and emulate that kind of success, and 8 Floor Games tries by blending solitaire and bowling. It's an idea that really should work; unfortunately, due to a lack of charm, style and depth, it doesn't quite.

    Heroes of the Realm Preview

    By

    Genre blending is all the rage these days, and I couldn't be happier about it. There's just something so fascinating about a developer taking two concepts we're all familiar with, and proving they can work together in harmony. And the logical progression, of course, is upping the ante on how many genres one game is home to. It's a dangerous approach, but the browser-based Heroes of the Realm is a game that's bold enough to try it.

    Poker Knight Preview

    Developer Instant Games describes Poker Knight as "the first RPPG ever." I'm no expert, but I'm going to assume that stands for "role-playing poker game." After all, the game features elements derived from both the RPG genre and the classic game of poker. If you think that's absurd, just wait until you hear about the plot.

    Reign of Dragons Review

    By

    Reign of Dragons has all the trappings of a fantastic and engrossing iOS collectible card game: It features some wonderful artwork, a massive pool of cards to gather, enhancement and evolution to make your favorite cards more powerful and to similarly unload the worthless ones. It has quests. It has PvP. It's practically the next Rage of Bahamut. Which might have something to do with the fact that it is Rage of Bahamut.
