Okay I’ll admit it, when I first saw the title of this game I thought I was reviewing a crosswords game. Boy was I surprised, because it’s not about crosswords at all! Instead it’s a story of a daughter attempting to search for her lost father. Best crossword yet? CrossWorlds…
Read MoreTom Clancy has always appealed to me as a FPS franchise, in much the same way James Bond does. Like a big, brash, American version of Bond, Tom Clancy tales have it all – counter terrorism, stealth, exotic locations. The alcohol might be a little different – Tom Clancy heroes…

In fact, there’s so much to do that the premise of downloadable content seems a tad unnecessary. Nevertheless, there’s some logic to it…
Read MoreIs there a better suited game for the iPhone than Fortune Street, Square Enix’s most under appreciated franchise? I would argue no. Fortune Street Smart is a brilliant fit for the iPhone, and one of very best mobile games you’ll ever play. The series, which has been Japan-only in many…
