Stick figure sniper game Clear Vision has been making quite a name for itself on the App Store in both its free (12+) and paid (17+) permutations. In our review of the game, we noted that its ending was a bit abrupt and hoped that this sudden stop was indicative of upcoming content and not a result of, say, the development bud...

Top 10 best Kairosoft games for iOS and Android

Wed, 16 May 2012 17:00:00 GMT
Kairosoft owns the management sim category on both the iOS App Store and Android's Google Play Store. That's a fact. You'd be hard pushed to find a mobile gamer who doesn't own at least one Kairosoft title. Each title is very similar to the other, yet there's something just so addictive about the company's tried-and-tested formula that we can easily see past this. There's a serious amount of...

Chillingo and Blue Shadow Games have released Non Flying Soliders onto the New Zealand App Store, meaning it'll be winging (sorry) its way over to the UK and US from midnight tonight. You may be thinking to yourself that pretty much every soldier serving in the armed forces around the world has some difficulty flying, but the title doesn't refer to human beings, silly. It refers to fli...

Wed, 16 May 2012 14:03:00 GMT
Blatantly inspired by Bizarre Creations's seminal twin-stick shooter Geometry Wars, PewPew 2 is an eyeball-searing arcade epic which was great on an Android touchscreen but packs an even bigger punch on the Xperia Play. As before, you're presented with two main game modes: Infinity and Campaign. In the former, you're pitted a...

Heliceum, a company that specialises in software for smartphone and tablet platforms, has announced that it's bringing its very first game, Human Defense, to mobile and touch platforms next month. By "mobile and touch", we presume Heliceum means iOS and Android. Human Defense, as you may have imagined given its name, is a tower defence title that takes place inside the human b...
