Cloudstone is what Blizzard Entertainment's celebrated Diablo franchise would look like if someone dipped it in the same sugary coating that smothers Facebook favorites like FarmVille. The demons have been replaced with less disturbing foes such as gelatinous blobs, the usually cheerful setting stands in for the gloom of burning villages and the underworld, but its gameplay still relies on the furious and addictive clicking we've loved in Diablo for years. It's certainly worth a look if you like point-and-click action games of any sort, and it's relatively polite in its requests for hard currency.
This past Christmas I got myself an iPad. For years I had been listening to podcasts in which video game luminaries spoke praises of the mobile device. I understood the iPad to be some sort of ice breaker crunching its way through frozen waters, forging a veritable northwest passage through the calcified husk of popular gaming. When I finally got my hands on one, I wouldn't say I was disappointed. I enjoyed a solid month of new games, sampling different genres and exploring the platform's departures from the norm.

The MMORPG is an interesting case study. Here in the West, most of us equate the term "MMO" with games like Star Wars: The Old Republic, Runescape, and World of Warcraft. Yet, from a global aspect, a large portion of the most populated MMOs come from the East, including Ragnarock Online, Dungeon Fighter Online, and Dofus, each sporting tens of millions of users each.
If I had a nickel for every time that I heard someone was advertising "The next Pokémon", I'd be able to afford plenty of better games. The monster capture genre is hard to pull off: you need a perfect balance of engaging combat, decent animations, rewarding exploration, and depth. To this date, I haven't found a single game even worthy of the Pokémon comparison. Until now.
