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…

Human Crasher
By Funny Power

007-600x400

"Abduct Earthlings in this casual, but unfortunately grind-heavy, arcade game." (Campbell Bird)

Winterforts: Exiled Kingdom
By Norsfell

"WinterForts' exceedingly unoriginal gameplay will leave players cold." (Jordan Minor)

Dino On Fire
By Piraya Mobile

"Though Dino on Fire still plays very closely to Clash of Clans, fighting as dinosaurs has its own appeal." (Nadia Oxford)

Planet Hop
By RetroDreamer

planet-hop-1-600x450

"Planet Hop is as empty and unforgiving as space itself. That's not a bad thing." (Jordan Minor)

Never Let Go
By BulkyPix

"Never Let Go is a tough test of touch endurance." (Jordan Minor)

Animals vs. Mutants
By Netmarble Games

"Animals vs Mutants is cute and fun for a time, but strategy enthusiasts won't find it to be a challenging hunt." (Nadia Oxford)

Chris is a little frightened that he is the oldest writer on the 148Apps staff, but maybe there's someone else out there who remembers when a Mac Plus was cutting edge and the Newton was nothing short of miraculous.
