"Oh death, where is thy sting?" reads the oft-quoted cry from Corinthians.
"Right here, in this swordfish the size of a BMW 4 Series Coupé," replies Obslashin's hero, swinging his fishy weapon like a steroidal New Yorker at the slew of monsters that roam the expansive dungeons of this free to play frenzy.
Now if gladiatorial marine life seems like an odd choice of weaponry, prepare your eyeb...
Super Evil Megacorp's Vainglory - that spiffy-looking mobile MOBA that was shown off during Apple's iPhone 6 keynote - is now available to download in Europe.
This is a fast-paced three-on-three multiplayer battler that has you fighting to destroy the enemy's crystal, while simultaneously defending your own. You've got loads of heroes to choose from, who all have unique powers and items.

Updated on November 13rd, at 8:34: XCOM: Enemy Within is now available to download on both iOS and Android. It's a 2.8GB download and costs £8.99 / $13.99.
We'll have a full review soon.
Original story follows…
The iOS and Android versions of alien extermination sim XCOM: Enemy Unknown will be getting the Enemy Within expansion pack tomorrow - but as a new standalone app, rather tha...
We first saw screenshots of Space Age: A Cosmic Adventure a whole two years ago.
Now, the sci-fi point-and-click is set to launch on the App Store at midnight tonight for £2.49 / $3.99.
Set in an alternately sci-fi version of 1976, Space Age follows a small team of explorers and their adventures on an unfamiliar planet, Kepler-16, which turns out to be a bit more familiar than they first...
Day of the Viking takes the tower defence genre pretty literally. You're in control of a ragtag bunch of rock-throwers and archers, and you need to stop a horde of Vikings breaking into your holdfast and stealing the princess.
What ensues is a madcap, sometimes overwhelming game of swipe and tap as you hurl everything at your disposal in the vague direction of the Norse invaders.
There's a l...
Ustwo's gorgeous, mind-bending puzzle game Monument Valley just received a massive new update that almost doubles the length of the game, with the addition of eight extra levels.
These bonus stages feature entirely new concepts like water, upside down sections, spiralling walkways, and gusts of wind. So you might need a helping hand working through them.
As ever, this guide is intended for t...
Munch Time 2 will see the return of the tongue-swinging chameleon when it's released in 2015. And this time he has an open world to explore.
When Munch Time came out in 2012, it fell in among a bunch of other physics-based platformers with cute animals just like it. That's what let it down in our review - it was passé.
But Munch Time 2 might escape that criticism as it's a metroidvania, and ...
Updated on November 12th 2014 at 16:14: Ustwo has now released the official trailer for the Forgotten Shores expansion.
You can watch it at the bottom of this post. It's rather pretty.
Original story follows...
The "Forgotten Shores" update for Monument Valley is available to purchase on iOS right now.
That's right, it has come a day earlier than was originally announced.
Forgot...
FDG Entertainment is releasing its tower defence and RPG hybrid Crystal Siege HD on the App Store tonight.
So, yep, that's another game added to the masses with the word "siege" in their title. But at least this one seems to be a little bit teresting than the rest of them.
For starters, you ride a griffin into battle in Crystal Siege HD. This gives you the choice to fight the demons a...
Sets and Settings has made a free remix of its lane-based dodger #SUPERHYPER. It's called ULTRAHYPER and it's out on iOS right now.
While the concept in both games is to survive as long as you can while travelling down a lo-fi gauntlet, there are a number of differences.
You'll immediately notice that the isometric angle of #SUPERHYPER has been swapped out for a top-down angle in ULTRAHYPER...
Adding Star Wars into the tower defence genre mix is an odd choice.
There aren't actually that many towers in the entire canon of Star Wars, and they certainly don't play a pivotal role in any scene from the series - or at least not from what I can recall about the six main movies.
But there must be a good reason to make a TD game out of this cherished licence, beyond just the potential for ...
Flyhunter Origins leaps like a hunter with a net onto iOS tonight. We presume that it will also make an appearance on Android tomorrow too, but we don't know at this point.
It's an action platformer that we took a hands-on look at when at Gamescom last year.
It excels in its animation due to being made by people who have worked, or still do work, at Pixar. At the time, the rest of the game's...
The "Forgotten Shores" update for Monument Valley is available to purchase on iOS right now.
That's right, it has come a day earlier than was originally announced.
Forgotten Shores adds eight new chapters for you to play through. That's nearly double the content of the original game.
In it, developer ustwo explores ideas that it had dropped from previous levels. So you can expect more wa...
The iOS and Android versions of alien extermination sim XCOM: Enemy Unknown will be getting the Enemy Within expansion pack tomorrow - but as a new standalone app, rather than an update.
At its heart, this is largely the same game as last year's, which sees you defending the earth from an alien invasion by managing resources, launching satellites, researching weapons, and commanding tactica...
Agent, Run! is an interesting auto-runner that's out right now for iPad and iPhone. Rather than poking the screen to move the secret agent hero, you're tapping and swiping to change the environment.
You might need to slice down hanging bones to stop dogs from chasing you, drag open doors so you don't smash into them, or swipe hooks to fire out your grapple line to swing over mine fields.
...
Plants vs Zombies 2 has been updated again. This time it's another sand and sea themed expansion called Big Wave Beach Part 2.
The update features three new zombies, including an Octopus zombie, and three new plants, including the seed spitting Guacodile.
There are 16 new levels as well. Which is quite a lot of new levels I guess. Dr Zomboss will also surface in his Zombot Sharktronic Su...
Haunt the House: Terrortown is a little clumsy. It's beautifully presented, with a wonderful soundtrack and a cute cartoon style, but its controls let it down a little too often.
It's ostensibly a game about trying to scare the inhabitants of a series of creepy, creaking buildings, but more often than not you'll find yourself struggling with the touchscreen foibles of the game instead of the in...
Golfinity is, as you might expect from the title, an infinite golf game. It's from NimbleBit, and it's just landed on the New Zealand App Store. That means it should be out in the UK at midnight tonight.
The game sees you putting your way through an infinite number of abstract mini-golf holes.
There are loop-de-loops, huge gaps, jumps, and all manner of silly obstacles to try and hit a t...
Random Heroes 3 is the third, and apparently last, addition to the run-and-gun pixely shooter series from Ravenous Games.
And it's just landed on the New Zealand App Store. That means it should be out in the UK at midnight tonight.
The gameplay has been polished and preened this time round, and you can expect to run faster and gun harder than you did in the first two entries in the franc...
We've been pretty excited about Framed for a while. It's a clever comic rearranging puzzler adventure, and it's just hit the App Store in New Zealand. That means it should be out at midnight in the UK.
The game is all about shuffling around the panels of a comic. You might need to rearrange things so the main character doesn't run into a cop, or swap things around to make it past some patro...
