Review by Matt S. Wars and Battles has the potential to be the biggest wargame app on the Apple iPad, because it is not limiting itself to any one single era of conflict. There are many great wargames out there, such as Shenandoah’s Battle of the Bulge or Slitherine’s Panzer…
Read MoreReview by Sam M. It’s surprising to see a little indie game take on the big challenge of addressing the damsel in distress trope that has been a large point of discussion in video game culture lately. But when it’s done this well it’s hardly a complaint that Dokuro’s developers…
Read MoreReview by Shaan J. If there’s one thing I’ve lamented about the Xbox One to date, it’s that Microsoft has really dropped the ball when it comes to small, downloadable titles. Looking back on my years with the Xbox 360, a good portion of my play time was dedicated to…

Read MoreReview by Patrick B. The appeal of most sports games lies in the ability to take part in the action. In soccer, the thrill comes from controlling individual team members and leading them to victory. With the Football Manager series, however, the excitement comes from managing a team from the…
Read MoreReview by Matt S. There are a couple of genres that iPads do really, really well, and Football Manager is an example of that. A cerebral, menu-driven experience rather than an action button masher, Football Manager is the kind of game that is perfect to take down to the pub…
Read MoreReview by Jim S. When I think of Codemasters I think of great simulation racing games such as the GRID and F1 franchises, so it came as a bit of a surprise that the publisher would take on a game like Toybox Turbos. I’m rather glad that it did, because…
