Chris Buffa (Modojo): 2013 is less than two weeks old. That being the case, we've noticed a few iOS users complaining about the low number of games in the New Year, with the hope of developers ratcheting up the release schedule in the month ahead. Yes, we haven't seen tons of games, but that doesn't mean the App Store's a barren wasteland full of (the horror) titles from 2012; quite the contrary. That said, check out the best iPhone and iPad games of 2013. The ones we've played, at least.
Qi investigates those iPhone games that seem to be obsessed by circles
"The latest update from the App Store highlights a number of iPad games that are currently available at the 99c price point. We’ve provided the list below and links to our picks of the bunch:"
I think majority of those are normally only $1.99 and I consider them overpriced at that. None of them are worth $0.99.
Mobile gaming is being held back by titles like these.
Hardcore Droid:
"Time manipulation in videogames is nothing new. From Chrono Trigger to Majora’s Mask to Braid, developers have been obsessed with unlocking the possibilities of time in gameplay. Still, using time travel in an endless runner is something that hasn’t been explored. On its face it seems counter-intuitive. After all, the whole conceit of endless runners is that they are one-directional—always forward, never back. In spite of this, Time Surfer makes a good case for why this idea might be just what the doctor ordered to rejuvenate the genre. I think we all know what Doctor I’m talking about."
