Review by Matt S. There is a classical beauty about Dragon Quest games. Square Enix’s venerable franchise has remained resolutely traditional throughout its long history, even as its stablemate, Final Fantasy, has taken some risks and offended some people in the process.

Read MoreReview by Matt S. Australian-developed EPOCH was a smash hit on iOS for many of the same reasons that most iOS smash hits become smash hits – it took a very basic idea and executed on it really, really well. It combined high production values, gameplay that worked on a…
