Aztlan Games sure like their creepy critters! Fresh off last April's "Multipods: Escalation," they're back already with lots more crawly things, and after some hands-on time with "Vermes on Mars" we're glad to see that they're really upping the ante! Action fans who are looking for depth and some fun on-the-fly strategizing will want to keep a keen eye on this one as it nears release.

Zen Wars Hands-On Preview

Sean Koch·
Liv Games gave us a sneak peek at their upcoming strategy game "Zen Wars," developed in collaboration with subzero.eu! It's built with Cocos2d, and it even has comic book panels. If you recall our track record of loving Cocos2d and comic book-style storytelling to bits, you'll correctly guess our feelings on this one -- and if you're looking for a multiplayer strategy match, so much the better!

Necta Collecta Review

Ruan Shiels·
"Necta Collecta" exceeds player expectations in the amount of content it packs in. However, a distinct lack of tension in its gameplay takes the experience down a notch for those who like to see brisk challenge in their puzzle games.

Magnetic Baby Review

Sean Koch·
A star is born! Magnetic Baby could have gone wrong on so many levels, but care and good design sense on the developer's part have shaped this into a must-have for anyone interested in a good physics puzzler with a heavy dose of platforming action.

Deathsmiles Review

Ruan Shiels·
Deathsmiles will wow and exhilarate you, then challenge and baffle you before understanding finally washes over you and sends you to a peaceful place full of gothic monsters, neon projectiles, and insane score multipliers. This, my friends, is bullet hell Zen.

Pocket Academy Review

Ruan Shiels·
If you think managing a high school sounds like the dullest videogame premise ever, think again! Kairosoft returns with another winning management sim. Genre fans will applaud its depth, challenge, and replay value equally, although you shouldn't go into this one expecting pick-up-and-play simplicity.
