148Apps round-up: Ruzzle Adventure, Gunfinger, and more
The week in casual games
Time is limited. Apps are plentiful. How can you make sense of the ever-increasing number of new games in the App Store?
Well, by reading Pocket Gamer, of course. But we can't possibly cover everything, and there are some games that just don't fit in our wheelhouse. Thankfully, our friends over at 148Apps are here to save the day.
Take a look at some of the casual games that have caught the attention of the 148Apps team...
World of Thingies: Puzzle
By Mobage
"World of Thingies: Puzzle is a lot of fun when it allows itself to be, but it's hampered by unfair boss fights and greedy free-to-play mechanics." (Nadia Oxford)
Panzer Tactics HD
By Sproing Interactive Media
"A variety of units and meticulous turn-based combat make Panzer Tactics HD a solid, challenging choice." (Andrew Fisher)
Dragonwood Academy: A Game of Stones
By XMG Studio
"Gorgeous artwork and abundant creatures to collect can't really save Dragonwood Academy from its own rudimentary gameplay." (Rob Thomas)
PSI - Submarine Combat
By Anthony Mangione
"This game is a self-proclaimed love letter to FTL, but with submarines." (Campbell Bird)
Arcane Battles
By Brighter Games
"Even great artwork can't save Arcane Battles from feeling as generic as its name." (Andrew Fisher)
Delivery Outlaw
By Adult Swim Games
"Adult Swim's physics trial racer is good, but mostly wheel-spinning." (Jordan Minor)
Ruzzle Adventure
By MAG Interactive
"This ambitious puzzle game sequel is a ruzzingly good time." (Jordan Minor)
Gunfinger
By PixelToys
"Like most zombie shooters, Gunfinger is fun for a while - and, like most zombie shooters, the fun runs its course pretty quickly." (Nadia Oxford)
All this, plus Rob Rich reviews the Wren V5AP wireless speaker.
