"M.U.S.E." gets so much right as a cover shooter: increasingly complex environments and increasingly intelligent enemies, and earned upgrades on top of all that stuff you can blow up. Now, if an update can add a great targeting system to that list of features, it's sure to be a standout shooter.
"Terra Noctis" stands head and shoulders with "Shantae: Risky's Revenge" as a title that captures the very best of what sprite-filled 2D action adventures have to offer. While a few design quirks may have even genre fans scratching their heads, this is one you'll easily lose yourself in as long as you don't have a complete aversion to the word "platforming."
If you're a TBS fan and you're looking for one sci-fi entry to match the medieval tour de force that was "Ravenmark," make it "Legion of the Damned!" While it doesn't pack a powerful visual punch, it ranks as high as one could hope for in every other department -- a meaty campaign with real strategic depth, a neat story, and some of the most robust multiplayer we've yet seen in the genre on iOS.
Complex, uber-challenging, and short at the moment, “iDamaged” caters well to action and shoot ‘em up fans who are looking for gameplay depth but don’t mind waiting for more levels down the road.
“Tongue Tied” is the most innovative take on the side-scrolling runner we’ve seen yet! Even if you’re not a genre fan or have just grown plain tired of level based runners, this one deserves your attention for its out-of-this-world acrobatics, perfectly polished gesture controls, and healthy challenge.
In so many ways, “Chrono Trigger” serves as a wake-up call and a benchmark for the quality iOS RPG developers need to strive for from now on. Sadly it falls flat on its face in the interface department, which will leave frustrated new players wondering what all the fuss was about in the first place.
If you're seeking lots of special moves or evolving gameplay mechanics you won't find them in "Katana Jack," but it perfectly captures the feel of ye olde single-screen arcade platformers. This is definitely a title you should snatch up if you're looking for a simple action game you can play in short spurts from time to time.
