Life as a cell can be difficult. The bigger cells bump into you, reduce your size, and mock you with their bloated presence.
This much I have come to realise while playing Bulkypix's cell simulation game Felllice.
It's the type of game that offers challenges for you to complete, but also offers the chance to "drift along" and relax, if you wish.
In the normal "Play" mode, you enter a blac...
I don't know if I suck at this game, if it's really bloody hard, or it's just criminally unfair, but I'm struggling to make an inch of progress through Gauntlet's Revenge.
It is, certainly, an interesting departure for the Tilt to Live series, which morphs the dot-dodging arena battler into a side-scrolling shmup. Only without the shooting.
Instead, you passively dart through narrow gaps, do...
Napoleon is the linchpin in Hunted Cow's latest iOS strategy game Peninsular War Battles.
Across five campaigns consisting of 40 missions, you'll play as the British, French, and Spanish while Napoleon tries to take over Portugal and Spain.
Hunted Cow reckons that each battle is a thoroughly researched simulation. As such, the tactical options available to each commander are as they would ha...
The main problem with The Bot Squad is that it's boring. We've seen everything it does before done better. It's got tower defence elements, tower offence elements, and all of them feel small and jaded.
Then there's some free to play elements, currencies, an energy system, robots telling you to buy things. It's basically the sort of game the App Store sometimes feels like it's choked with.
Su...
Micro Battles is a game of, as you might be able to tell from the title, micro battles. It offers a decent chunk of same-device multiplayer and it's got a pretty interesting free to play system as well.
If you don't pay you get to play one of the four different mini-games every day. Cough up £1.49 / $1.99 and you'll be able to play them all whenever you want.
Each of the games is a one-vs-on...
Remember Smarter Than You? Luca Redwood's ambitious social duelling game that dabbled in AI and altruism?
If you forgot, it was a clever rock-paper-scissors variant where you could spend real money to tip your opponents, and boost their experience points. Paying cash only helped other players - not you.
At the time, Redwood said "I’ve consulted with a lot of people, and everybody has tol...
Silver Award-winning retro JRPG Final Fantasy V has been updated with iCloud and MFi controller support. So now you can play it with buttons in the sky.
The iCloud addition means you can essentially sync a save across multiple devices, which is a pretty sensible thing to be able to do with a massive RPG.
At review we said "Final Fantasy V might not represent the high point of the series,...
Angry Birds Transformers plays very well, there's no denying that. When the game is letting you access its content, you'll have a great time with it - transforming, rolling out, and blasting baddies with impunity.
But every once in a while the game's free to play model gets in the way of the fun. "Hey! You! Can you go away and do something else for a bit instead of play this cool game?" it says...
NBA 2K15 is a ridiculously big game. Not just in terms of the amount that's stuffed into this annual rejigging of the franchise, either. It's 3GB.
So if you like saving space on your iPhone or iPad, it's probably going to cause you some headaches.
Luckily it's got the chops to make up for its slightly bonkers girth problem. This is one of the slickest basketball experiences we've seen on the...
I think the mayor in upcoming papery puzzle game Twisty Hollow is actually Boris Johnson. Yes, I'm referring to the current golden-locked barmy mayor of London.
Seriously, it matches up.
The mayor in Twisty Hollow apparently creates rules such as having to frown at bacon, and giving fashion tips for ghosts. I can easily imagine Boris Johnson doing the same.
While this might seem like good...
Bass-driven 2D shooter Savant - Ascent has a new stage, boss, and more with the "Void Update".
With this update, if you survive for long enough on the dark tower's elevator you'll go beyond the tower and discover a new powerful foe.
Once you've reached this new stage, you don't have to go through the first one again, as there's a new stage select that lets you skip right to it.
With this ...
What Hail to the King: Deathbat thinks it is is not what Hail to the King: Deathbat actually is. It wants to be Diablo, dripping with wit and dark and stormy violence.
In fact it's a sluggish bumble of a game. A button masher where sometimes the buttons forget that you're mashing them, and where pesky imps can eat half of your health bar and boss battles are reduced to laughable Benny Hill-styl...
2D sandbox game Junk Jack X has been invaded by ghouls, witches, and black crows. It's nothing to worry about - it's all part of the game's Halloween update.
With this latest update, summer is no more the default in Junk Jack X. It's now just another season generation option. As you know, summer isn't all that spooky at all.
Instead, what you will find is a new spooky Halloween biome. Inside...
How do you fancy going to Pokémon Camp? It's like a summer camp, except everything you do is about Pokémon. Pretty cool, right?
What's even better is that you don't have to wait for these miserable winter months to be able to go. Pokémon Camp is available for free right now on iOS.
It gives you a whole sunshine island to explore, completing mini-games that put your Pokémon knowledge to the t...
Back in May of this year, the Silver Award-winning Shadowrun Returns dropped to its lowest price at a rather magnificent £2.99 / $4.99. Now you can get it for even cheaper.
Yep, on both iOS and Android, Shadowrun Returns is just £1.99 / $2.99, making its new lowest price yet.
If you've been holding off from delving into this cyberpunk RPG due to its price, then your excuse is wearing thin, ...
Episode three of Camoflaj's dystopian surveillance-thriller République has popped up on iOS a day earlier than originally stated.
It was supposed to come out tomorrow but it's available right now. Sneaky little thing.
Oh, and if you're an Android player wondering if République episodes 1 through 3 have also been released early on your platform of choice - sorry, it hasn't.
It seems Andro...
Noodlecake's Mmm Fingers is a cartoony one-touch death march that sees you twisting your finger around your iPad or iPhone screen to avoid the attention of hungry monsters.
It's just landed on the New Zealand App Store, which means it should be out in the UK at midnight tonight.
The game is gloriously bright, and offers some super-tough single-finger gameplay.
There's a huge variety o...
It's the end of the year, which means it's time for new versions of all those sports game that are so popular. This week it's hockey. On ice.
NHL 2K has just landed on the App Store in New Zealand, which means it should be out in the UK at midnight tonight.
The game features the obligatory career mode that spans multiple seasons, a mini-rink mode that lets you play fast-paced three-on-th...
Puzzle to the Center of the Earth is pretty much perfectly encapsulated by its title. The game has just popped up in New Zealand, which means it'll be out in the UK at midnight tonight.
You play an intrepid explorer who's trying to reach the middle of the planet. To do that you make a path by matching coloured blocks.
There's some light platforming thrown in as well, and lots of little t...
Tilt to Live: Gauntlet's Revenge is a delightfully hateful action dodger that's just hit the App Store in New Zealand.
We've jumped forward in time using our science machines and can confirm that that means the game will hit the UK at midnight tonight. Probably.
The game is a super tough obstacle course that sees you tilting your way through a variety of sharp, angry, pointy, and lasery ...
