Our video reviews are a regular feature where I take a look at a game or app for the iPhone, Android or iPad and review it on video for you. The beauty of the video reviews are that they allow you to see a game or app running, and being used as it would be [...]
The original Reckless Racing was a good racing game in the Super Off Road tradition that, while supremely playable and good looking, was lacking a bit of focus and had an odd selection of game modes. Reckless Racing 2 aims to change all that, and the good news is that it has done this and [...]
Mage Gauntlet ($2.99) is yet another brilliant game from Rocketcat. Although the action-RPG is a completely different genre to their previous hook-slinging titles, it shares those games’ brilliant pixellated graphics, high quality sound effects and simplicity. I’ve never really enjoyed action-RPGs before. The app’s description states that it’s inspired by classic Super Nintendo games like [...]

I have a confession to make before we go into the full review of Soul Calibur for iPhone; that I am a massive fan of the series with huge expectations for this new iPhone release. To get across my slavering hunger for Soul Calibur to you, I should tell you that this is the first [...]
Jazz: Trump’s Journey casually and nonchalantly shows you its quality from the first second you enter the main menu. The main character, a beautifully drawn Jazz musician tips his hat to you and adjusts his bow tie, and you get instant control over him, while you are still in the main menu. You move him [...]
It is not often that I find myself saying this in a review, but the tilt controls of this game are really well done. Tilt controls in action games are usually hamfisted, inaccurate and extremely frustrating, but here the developer has done such a good job that I ended up using the tilt controls more [...]
As video games go, arcade style fighting is classic and timeless. Change the setting or situation and you’ve got a whole new game. In Chillingo’s new app Street Wrestler, a new twist is put on the old format, with a culture all it’s own. Gamers take on the roll of a masked, butt kickin’ luchador, [...]
