Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Mobile Game Review
If you’re a stickler for details in adaptations of your favourite fictional characters, you’re probably less likely to enjoy the mobile game of the film than those who don’t really care about muggles, mudbloods and all that other magical nonsense.This great looking Harry Potter game blends in an altogether decent adventure with a good supply of puzzle solving, spell casting and vague storytelling. A little easy, but surprisingly entertaining.

Pac-Man Championship Edition Mobile Game Review
The iconic symbol of the birth of arcades remains as vital as ever to the games industry, but he’s been through every possible style, platform and genre until there’s simply nothing left to do but keep putting out the same old retro chestnut.
But it seems there’s at least one surprise left in the dot-muncher’s coin box. For the first time in 26 years, the game’s original designer, Toru Iwatani, has returned to his drawing board and come up with some all new maze designs for his immortal creation.
But that’s only a small part of how this remarkable new iteration makes Pac-Man live again. The graphics – which very much return to form with simple, line-drawn 2D mazes – have a beautiful (and somehow very appropriate) neon hue, with some delicious special effects thrown in to subtly enhance the experience.
Rather than attempting to clear the maze of dots, this time you’re competing against a timer to shore up the highest score. It’s a subtle difference, but a vital one. Only a few dots and power pills will be strategically laid out around the maze, and once cleared, the walls will invisibly shift (off screen) to reveal the next arrangement of Pac-Man’s favourite food.
A few fantastic variations are built around this superb new gameplay model, bringing the classic game’s inherent addictiveness right back to the boil for the first time in over two decades. It’s simply wonderful to see Pac-Man retake the video gaming throne.

Spy Hunter Mobile Game Review
Retro gamers delight to hear the name of the Miami Vice-inspired shooter, Spy Hunter. And for good reason, for although we call it a shooter, it’s every bit a racing game, and a very inspirational one at that.The game is a little tame by today’s standards, but this latest mobile iteration re-creates Midway’s 1983 coin-op classic admirably.With twin machine guns mounted on the bonnet and a variety of additional weaponry at your disposal, Spy Hunter is just as appealing to newcomers as it is to fans of the original.

Worms Mobile Game Review
Artillery games have been big news on the iPhone, after developers made millions from 59p titles. Now the most popular of them all, Worms, is here to reclaim its crown.
The invertebrate soldiers battle it out with all the powerful and inventive weaponry we’ve come to associate with the franchise. The jet pack, ninja rope, concrete donkey, and all the others work from the iPhone’s touch-screen, while the randomly generated landscapes and quirky graphics have been beautifully recreated.

Monster Pinball iPhone Game Review
Just because a game intends to recreate the pinball experience, there’s no reason it has to be restricted by it. Yet, most pinball simulators adhere strictly to the virtual physics of a ball bearing, flippers and mechanical bumper.
Not Monster Pinball, however. This game is very much Pinball 2.0, and although it recreates the physics of the real game superbly well, it also packs in unique gameplay features that could only exist on a virtual table.
Coupled with beautiful artwork, creative level designs and atmospheric sound effects, Monster Pinball is a triumph of both form and function.

My Brute iPhone Game Review
You might have heard of the web phenomenon called My Brute, which currently enjoys around 1.7 million players every day. It’s a bizarre concept to begin with, being a turn-based RPG fighting game, but the all-new iPhone adaptation is like gaming heroin.You create your Brute from a host of different options, then establish your own dojo and kung fu style, and pit your pugilist against the rest of the world’s My Brute fighters.The fights are non-interactive, which is weird at first, but as your dojo grows you’ll be checking in on your Brute as obsessively as you check your email.
