The Tuesday Best of - SNK Playmore games for iPhone and iPad

Well, it's Tuesday now. Doesn't time fly. I'll let you in on a little secret though – it's actually still Monday for me, but thanks to the wonders of scheduling, I'm talking to you from the past. I guess, in a way, I'm always talking to you from the past. There's something for you to have a ponder about. Whichever way you look at it, Tuesday is always the day when we do our best-of. It's called the Tuesday best-of, after all, it'd be crazy to do it on another day. Just proper bonkers. So I'm doing it today. Or yesterday. Wow this is confusing. This week we're going to look at the best SNK Playmore games on the App Store. There's three bonafide classics here, and while they might not…

The Monday Musing - Is AR gaming the future of mobile?

Well, Monday has stumbled over, yelling about what an amazing weekend it had. It probably didn't do any of things it's telling you, but just nod and smile and tell it that it sounds like it had a blast and hopefully it'll go away pretty soon. The only good thing about Monday is that it's when I get to write the Monday Musing, which as I'm sure you'll agree is the single greatest piece of regular content that's ever had the word Monday in its title. Don't try and think of any others, you won't be able to. Anyway, this week I'm going to have a good old muse about AR gaming. Is it the future of mobile, or is it another flash in the pan that's going to fizzle about before it's even really fizz…

Roll the dice on the new Game of Dice update

Joycity’s fantasy real-estate game, Game of Dice, is getting a huge update this week. The patch will add some thrilling new content to a game already rich in deep single-player and multiplayer play.

The Tuesday Best of - Zombie games for iPhone and iPad

Well, we survived Monday. Unless you're a ghost or a zombie while you're reading this, in which case I'm sorry, but I'll try and tailor the site to your undead needs from now on. Wait a minute, the undead. That gives me an idea. There are loads of zombie games on the App Store in one shape or another, so it's probably time that someone wrote about which three are the best.

The Thursday Find - Standby

Thursday is here again. It's quite sunny and nice out, but that doesn't mean that the content train is going to get derailed.

Well, would you look at that. It's finally stopped raining. Again, this probably doesn't have any bearing on your existence if you don't live near me, but the sun is out again and I can feel the first soft caresses of autumn rolling in the window. This is a good thing. Especially if, like me, you have the constitution of a seal. With that in mind, or more likely, with none of that in mind, it's time to round up the best games on sale on the App Store right now. There are some pretty good games on the list this week, although it took me a while to find them, because they all went on sale earlier in the week. But I persevered, for you.

The Tuesday best of - Hellblade is out, so here are the best psychological horrors for iPhone and iPad

Well, it's Tuesday. I just went outside and got soaked to the skin. Don't go outside if you don't like getting wet and live near where I live. In fact it's probably best not to go outside at all if you live near where I live, it's pretty grim around here. And speaking of grim things, today has seen the release of Hellblade on PS4 and PC. It's a gritty hack and slash game with psychological horror elements. Obviously it's not going to come to mobile, but it did get me thinking - what are the best psychological horror games on the App Store? So that's exactly what I've gone and written. A list of the three best psychological horror games for iOS. You can download them by clicking on the embo…
