    This is the new RPG/strategy game from Final Fantasy’s Sakaguchi on iOS, and it’s available now on the Canadian iTunes Store – it comes out internationally on October 9. I’ve checked it out and have to say that the battle system is really cool. You play on a grid, with your party members and enemies…

    I really liked Rayman Jungle Run – which I think is the most successfully executed platformer on iOS – and I finally got around to playing the sequel, Rayman Fiesta Run (it was on sale for a buck last week), and it’s just as fun, and looks maybe even better. Doing it as a non-stop…

    This is a near perfect game on iOS. Just look at those visuals, which look even better when everything is moving, and add on gameplay that evolves as you go from chapter to chapter, but remains a one-button game the whole time. Touching that button initiates various abilities which are all lined up in the…

    I can’t remember why I didn’t pick this up earlier – since I quite like James Kochalka’s work (including his music) – but it’s on sale for a buck right now and so I grabbed it, and I suddenly got addicted to it. It takes Space Invaders, mixed in with Gorf, with more movement on…

    I feel like I always have to make excuses when I try playing another one of these free-to-play games, but yes, the Star Wars name made me want to give this Clash of Clans clone a try, and what can I say, a week later I’m still playing. I still don’t like the fact that…

    This iOS version of the the classic Lone Wolf choose-your-own-adventure books has been out for a while, but with today’s release of episode 3 (there will be 4 in all) they’ve made the first episode free, which was enough to tempt me to try it. I do have a lot of love for the original…

    This is a new free-to-play MOBA that is available only on iPad, and having gone through the tutorial and played a few rounds with bots, I’m quite liking it so far. I do like playing MOBAs, and the reason I don’t play DOTA 2 or League of Legends is mostly because they don’t run great…

    I’ve enjoyed the Duels of the Planeswalkers games, and was looking forward to the new edition, but so far I’m just not really feeling it. I’ve been playing Magic on and off pretty much since the start, and do still play the physical game with friends. What I liked about the Duels games was the slick…

    I wrote recently that I was enjoying the free-to-play iOS game Trials Frontier (and I still am), but the game I’ve been really excited to play is Trials Fusion, and I gotta say that so far I’m pretty satisfied. Sure, it does get progressively harder – meaning I’ve had to go back and grind some…

    Yet another free-to-play game I’m trying out, and again, how long I end up playing this will depend on how stingy it becomes with its resources – as I’ve said before, I’m willing to unlock stuff, but not pay for resources. So far I’m having a really fun time with this, and I’ve played quite…
