Gorgeous looking underwater rhythm adventure Beatbuddy is set to land on the App Store next week. Which tallies nicely with the September release date we were told a couple of months ago.
The game sees you tapping a sub around a wonderful underwater environment.
Each of the levels has a unique song, and your travels add new bashes, crashes, and notes to the arrangement. It all sounds rat...
Balls. Footballs to be precise. FIFA Ultimate Team 15 has just been soft launched in Canada for iOS and Android, bringing lots of kicking and card collecting to anyone in the frozen north who has a mobile device. Unless it's Windows Phone.
The game is just as slick as you'd expect from EA's flagship foot-to-ball franchise, and it's got some new simplified controls that make kicking that ball in...

Aaaaaargh. Yaaaaaargh. Me hearties. Timbers. Splice the mainbrace. If you haven't guessed I'm making pirate noises.
That's because Plunder Pirates from Midoki and Rovio has just sailed onto the App Store.
The game is another pretender to Clash of Clans's midcore throne. But this time you're building a base of piratical operations, with ships and cannons and parrots and palm trees and all...
A cool new feature in iOS 8 (how many times have we said that this week?) lets developers put their apps in a bundle, so you can grab a bunch of games at a discounted price.
You'll find these when browsing the App Store. Look at Infinity Blade, for example, and it will tell you that you can get it as part of the Infinity Blade Trilogy at a cheaper price point.
As always, Pocket Gamer is abou...
Goat Simulator is catastrophically stupid. It's a ridiculous physics experiment turned into a single joke about head butting things and falling over. There is no punch line. It's a fart in a classroom.
This is a piece of entertainment that is wilfully broken. It takes great glee in its ragdoll spasms, its stupendous idiocy, and its aimless bandy-legged meanderings.
It relies on blunt objects...
Glyph Quest is a Silver Award-winning puzzle-RPG, which our review from February called "warmly familiar" and "intriguingly deep."
Fans looking for more of that combo spell-casting action can rejoice, as developers Leanne Bayley and Alex Trowers have just announced a sequel: Super Glyph Quest.
Super Glyph Quest, like its predecessor, will be an RPG with match-3 inspired puzzles.
There are...

So you've now got iOS 8 on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You've been playing with all the cool new toys like health, time-lapse videos, custom keyboards, and extensions.
But, like every new edition of Apple's operating system, there are loads of features that are hidden underneath the hood. Useful, interesting, and fun little additions that aren't so famous.
Here, then, are some of t...
You know what a time-lapse video is, right? It's when you take several minutes or hours of continuous footage and then compress it down into a fancy seconds-long clip.
While there are plenty of apps on the App Store that allow you to do this on your iPhone, Apple has added time-lapse functionality right into the Camera app. It's a little basic, but here's how it works.
Open the c...
In iOS 7 you could share websites and pictures with services like Twitter, Facebook, and Vimeo. But that was because Apple baked support for those social networks and sites into iOS itself.

Want to kno...
A cool new feature in iOS 8 lets you share your location with a friend or group of pals, directly from messages. You can share once, or broadcast a constantly-updating record of your location.
All in all, it makes the old Find my Friends app a bit redundant. RIP Find my Friends. We will miss your ugly leather interface.
In this article we'll explain how it all works so you too can share ...

This guide will show you how to add widgets, and then remove them when they inevitably annoy you.
First things first, you need to download an app from the App Store that supports widget...
Am I really getting slower as I move deeper into my thirties, or are the younger chaps I play football with simply that much better than me?
That's the strangely analogous scenario that sprung to mind as I died for the fiftieth time in Hyper Trip.
In Hyper Trip terms, the question is this: are these controls naff, or am I just really rubbish at this game?

The new version of the iPhone and iPad operating system, iOS, is now available to download.
iOS 8 is available as an over-the-air update. So you just need to open the Settings app, go into General, and hit Software Update. When you see the big old Download button, hit it with the force of an angry god.
Before you start, though, you may want to follow the advice in our update survival guide. ...

2K's big league ice hockey sports game series NHL 2K is making a return to iOS and Android this autumn.
The last NHL 2K game that we had on mobile was the Bronze Award-winning NHL 2K11. It was also one of the last games produced for the series after 2K put it on hiatus.
So, this is the series's big return, then. What seems worth noting is that the title of this upcoming game isn't tied to a ...
