Determine the winner by making the nominees dodge actual tomatoes during stump speeches and literally pick the pockets of old ladies to collect cash. The dark and cynical humor of presidential politics sees some of its finer moments in TITUS, a $1.99 iPhone simulation that's basically a series of minigames in an unapologetically Tim Burton-like setting. It's far from the most realistic virtual ... more.

Video games are usually play-tested before foisting them on paying customers.Therefore it's's baffling to think what Food Processing, an iOS arcade puzzler from Chillingo, went through (or didn't) between the "final" line of code and the App Store. Both the visuals and controls render this game largely unplayable, making a game that's not very original a rare instance where it's not even worth the... more.

Something different and still fun is a too-rare occurrence in the App Store, so when a game like Play Kalei lets you toy with the world through a kaleidoscope there's much rejoicing. A short cheer, but nonetheless spirited. I had an odd liking for kaleidoscopes as a kid, to the point of indulging in one of those overpriced yuppie desktop toys early in my professional career (alas, it's generall... more.

There's a reason Dragon's Lair has been rereleased ad nauseum despite its massive lack of player content. There's also a reason its sequel, arguably a much better game just rereleased in highly playable form for the iPhone, barely registers in the collective memory of gaming history. Dragon's Lair, of course, was a fascinating novelty in 1983 for its first-rate animation as much as its quirky l... more.

For the first time in its history, Konami's X-Men Arcade has arrived on a portable device. Identical in every way to its arcade counterpart, the iPhone version retains the action and gameplay of the coin-op. All six X-Men made it to the portable version: Cyclops, Colossus, Wolverine, Storm, Night Crawler and Dazzler. The side-scrolling, beat 'em up action takes place across 8 stages as you try ... more.

Seeing as how there's a gazillion iPhone pinball games already, the average gamer is probably wondering why there's any reason to get excited about this title with its spartan "toy-like cabinet (and) old-style mechanical score drum." Furthermore, it's easily the most primitive game released by a developer whose never budged from charging new-release prices even for titles that are 20 years old. ... more.

Portable gaming has come a long way. For the first time in its history, X-Men Arcade is appearing on a portable device. Coming soon to the Apple App Store, X-Men Arcade includes all 6 original X-Men characters: Cyclops, Colossus, Wolverine, Storm, Nightcrawler  and Dazzler. The game supports drop-in multiplayer via Wi-Fi with up to four players. According to Konami, special attention was giv... more.
