It won’t amuse you for great stretches at a time, but this is great for dipping in and out of.

With sparkling ingenuity, One Tap Hero explores the simplest of interfaces to deliver a testing puzzle platformer with 100 levels of ideal mobile gaming.

Huge amounts of fun at parties, whether the room is full of kids or adults. Stable and well designed to boot.

The best block-falling game we’ve played on iOS and more puzzle-oriented and challenging than most. A must-buy.

It’s mostly more of the same for the series, but Universal play and Retina support make this enduring favourite shine again.

Some frustratingly difficult later levels, but otherwise this enjoyable dam-building puzzle is top of the class.

Great level design and the need for a thoughtful approach – this could well convince you you’re not done with hurl-’em puzzlers just yet.

Colourful candy cubes? Yes. Unique (if slightly unsanitary) setting? Yes. Gently challenging and really quite a lot of fun? Heck, yes.
