    AddictingGames Review

    By

    As releases like GAMEBOX and Capcom Arcade have shown, the notion of bundling a bunch of different games into a single app is nothing new. And yet, a worthwhile collection isn't all too common. The latest bundle of games to hit the App Store as a single download is Addicting Games, made by the folks behind the web-based Flash gaming portal of the same name.

    Minecraft – Pocket Edition Review

    By

    What else is there to say about Minecraft at this point? The world-exploring, block-breaking, item-crafting title has sold nearly four million copies on PC to date, and is now invading every gaming device imaginable, from an upcoming Xbox 360 Kinect version to a (no doubt) App Store-destroying iOS version.

    Pixaquarium Game Maker Review

    By

    If you've ever visited a sufficiently large shopping mall, you've probably seen the little novelty carts that sell personalized books to someone's unfortunate child, grandchild, niece, and/or nephew. These personalized books are typically very standardized fare that an adult with very bad taste in presents can fill out, Mad Libs-style, with the name, perhaps a photo, and some other pertinent information about a kid who is about to get a really boring gift. You can also sometimes see licensed versions of these, featuring superhero and cartoon characters, which are intended to be filled out by a kid who's vain enough to want to see his or her name in print alongside artwork of characters from their favorite licensed intellectual property. I bring these up because Pixaquarium Game Maker is the social game equivalent of one of those little carts that sells "customizable" books.

    The Flirt Game Preview

    By

    Facebook is used for plenty of different things, and flirting is certainly one of them. So MTV's The Flirt Game seems like a good fit for the platform. It lets you test your compatibility with both real-world Facebook users and fictional singles. But the result is about as shallow as most shows on MTV.

    Papa Sangre Review

    By

    Sound is often overlooked in games. We talk about how great a game looks, or how well it controls, but rarely how the sound makes us feel. But Papa Sangre doesn't let you ignore the way it sounds. Instead, it's a game that's focused entirely on audio, forcing you to use your ears to traverse dark and treacherous terrain. And even though you can't see anything, or maybe because of it, Papa Sangre is terrifying.

    Aurifi Review

    By

    Aurifi is certainly the most unique game I've seen yet on the iPhone. Heck, I've only played a game like this once before but that was some obscure Japanese game not even officially released outside their borders. Aurifi is an audio-only game, which means you can play it with your eyes closed. It's a strange feeling when you take your sight out of the game and rely only on your hearing to play. It was a gamble to make a game like that and for the most part it pays off well.

    GAMEBOX 1 Review

    By

    The old adage "you get what you pay for" is generally a universal truth when it comes to bundled game deals. Whenever you hear words like 101 Games in 1, you know the end result is going to be a train wreck at best. And yet despite this, All-in-1 Gamebox has shown up on Apple's top-selling games list month after month. We decided that it was time to take the plunge and find out why.
