Sometimes mere words fail you. Today is one of those days, so let me stick to the facts; Hulk Hogan has been added to Crazy Taxi City Rush, and you can hire him as an unlockable driver, and there's now a trailer showing this, and I think I need to go have a lie down.…
Hulk HoganAngry Birds AND Tetris movies confirmed, Hollywood officially scapes through the bottom of the barrel
Remember that Angry Birds movie you all asked for? No? Well tough, the upcoming animated flick has just got a release date and a confirmed cast list. Deal with it. However, there's a new movie coming which even fewer people asked for than the Angry Birds movie, and that's the Tetris movie. No, I am not joking. Yes, it is a bit silly, isn't it.

Hyper Cat features familiar arcade action, highscore chasing, and adorable kitty cats
Cycleplay's new auto-runner is called Hyper Cat, and it features cats in hats, trying to catch birds and generally (but futilely) try to reach the tops of the infinite trees they're scrambling up. The gameplay is definitely arcade-y and instant in feel: you tap on the screen to change which tree you're running up, avoiding hazards, very much like Timberman. Want in on the free-to-play feline fun? It's available now on iPhone, iPad, and Android. [App Store link] [Google Play link]…

Splode'N'Die is mixing two very well established genres together for its core gameplay: tower defence, and match-3. It'll feature 48 levels to beat, leaderboards to top, and if you're rocking an iOS device with an A7 Chip, it'll be enhanced by Metal too. Fancy taking a look for yourself? It's available now.

This launch trailer for The Secret of Raven Rock will get everyone in The Room all Myst-y eyed
If you couldn't tell from my hilarious pun-filled title, The Secret of Raven Rock is heavily inspired by games like The Room and Myst. No bad thing: if you're going to take ideas from other sources, you may as well take from the best. The Secret of Raven Rock has 50 locations, 25 puzzles, a 3D world to explore, and a story that revolves around a person returning to their home town, only to find it mysteriously abandoned. Here's the launch trailer. The game's out now and costs $4.99 / £2.99. [App Store link]…
Brunettes Shoot Blondes music video for Knock Knock will ensure you never again look at your iPhone the same way
This is a bit off the beaten path, but hey, it's using mobile telephones for awesomeness, and that's what AppSpy is all about, so why not; 'Knock Knock' by Brunettes Shoot Blondes is a simply delightful music video that's doing the rounds at the moment. It uses 14 screens - mostly mobiles and tablets - in some ingenious ways, to tell the tale of two star-crossed lovers. Take a look, and let me know what you make of it in the comments.…
Is Assassin's Creed - Identity the mobile Assassin's Creed game we've been waiting for?
I'll keep this brief: Ubisoft has just soft-launched Assassin's Creed - Identity in Australia and New Zealand. Unlike the card games and companion apps Ubisoft has served up to iOS gamers in the past, this fully 3D "action RPG" is a close to a full-blown Assassin's Creed game as we've ever seen on mobile. Like its console counterpart, the game lets you explore ancient cities, leaping from rooftop to rooftop before stabbing-up some unsuspecting nobleman. Watch our hands-on with the soft-launch version of Assassin's Creed - Identity below. You can download the game right now if you live in Australia or New Zealand. The rest of the world will have to wait until 2015 for the game to go glob…

In a break from our regularly scheduled programming of awesome new trailers, hands-on impressions with unreleased mobile games, reviews of the hottest new titles, and generally faffing about on Twitch, today I've got some great news about AppSpy that I'd like to share with you. We've been nominated for an award! Huzzah! To be precise, it's a Games Media Award, which are kind of like the Oscars for journalists and other people who make editorial content about video games. AppSpy is nominated for Best Video outlet, and we're all super thrilled. James has taken his shirt off already, Danny's downing his Ultraman booze to celebrate, and I've reached out to Grazia to see if they want an inter…

@WeAreVigilantes shares new Imps in Tokyo video, I'm officially #intrigued
There's a lot of social media stuff going on in the new Imps in Tokyo trailer. Each of the monsters in the game is referred to as @Harvey, @Hester, @Louis, and so on, and each has their own hashtag to sum up their personality - @mrcornelious is #evil, apparently. The game itself looks to be an arcade-focused dodging and shooting game, with a rather wonderful cartoon look to proceedings. Imps in Tokyo is coming to iOS, and I must say that I'm kind of jazzed to see how it turns out. Sorry... #jazzed.…
