One to watch - Lyrical Letters is out next week for iPhone and iPad
Let's take a moment and look to the future. Not too far into the future, obviously, we're not magicians - but into next week. In fact, let's take a look at what we think is the best game that's coming to the App Store in the next seven days. What game is that? Well we've had a good long think and scratched our beards and we think you should be getting excited about Lyrical Letters, a puzzler that sees you tickling the ivories to your heart's content. But it's not just about music, it's about words too. You play songs, find letters, and then use those letters to make - you guessed it - words. There are a number of different sounds you can get out of your little digital piano, and on top of…
one to watchThe 3 best games that came out for iPhone and iPad in December 2018
It might seem like it happened about a thousand years ago, but December is actually only three days dead. Which means it's time for us to take a quick look back at the very best games that came out in the twilight month of 2018. If you think we've missed anything out (we probably have, since there's only three games on the list), then make sure you let us know in the comments section at the bottom of the article. Command and Conquer: Rivals It was a pretty big surprise when this came out and it wasn't terrible. It was an even bigger surprised when it turned out to be one of the best midcore MOBAs of the year. It's got some neat ideas, it's well balanced, and the violence it offers is fa…

Right now we've got links that'll take you to check out games ten through six, which you can check out below. We had a tough time picking all of the games on this list, as you might be able to imagine. It's hard to remember a year when the releases were so varied - even if we broke the list down into genres the choices would be tough to make. But we've done what we think is our best to make a sensible list that really refle…

We've already told you about games 10-6 on our list, and you can read all about them by clicking this link right here. Now it's time for number 4 in our list.

Of course there's a chance you won't think that, so do let us know in the comments if you think we've got this one wrong. The Room: Old Sins The fourth game in The Room series does away with things like numbers. It's a stand-alone story set in the same unnerving Victorian universe, and it's all about poking and prodding a doll…

The top 10 iPhone and iPad games of 2018: No 6 - Reigns: Game of Thrones
It's time to take a look at what we think is the sixth best game to come out for iPhone and iPad this year. It's a licensed game, it doesn't have any action in it, and you'll spend most of your time reading when you're playing. We know that sounds awful, but bear with us here.

The top 10 iPhone and iPad games of 2018: No. 8 - Tiny Bubbles
2018 has been a really great year for mobile gaming. In fact it's been so great that it was really tough to pick the ten best games that have come out for iPhone and iPad over the past twelve months. We've done it though. We started our round-up with what we thought was the tenth best game of the year, and yesterday we told you all about game number nine. This time round, for the less mathematically cognizant, we're going to tell you about the eighth best game that came out this year. Do you agree? Do you disagree? Well be sure to let us know in the comments section at the bottom of the article then. Tiny Bubbles This is probably the biggest surprise out of all of the games on this list…
The top 10 iPhone and iPad games of 2018: No 9 - Teen Titans Go Figure
Since it's the end of the year, we've decided to round up what we think are the top 10 games for iPhone and iPad that have come out in 2018.

Then please do let us know in the comments - it fills our hearts with a rich kind of delight. Teen Titans Go Figure The original game was great, but this sequel takes pretty much everything that made that game so special, shakes it up a bit, and then makes sure that all the charm,…
The top 10 iPhone and iPad games of 2018: No. 10 - Oddmar
Since it's coming up to the end of the year, we've decided that it's time to start rounding up what has been a particularly good year in the mobile gaming world. And we thought we'd do it by running down our ten favourite games of the last twelve months. Because we're traditionalists we're going to start with our tenth best game of the year. We'd love to hear what you thought of the game, whether you agree with its position on the list, or if you wouldn't even bother playing it with a twenty seven foot barge pole. Oddmar We're starting things off with what we reckon might be the best mobile platformer of the past twelve months. It's all about a Viking who's trying to prove that he deser…
Top iPhone and iPad games of November 2018
It feels like only yesterday that November was only just starting, yet here we are at the beginning of December with a whole bunch of new games to look back on. Doesn't time just fly when you're having fun? From adventures through platformers, shooters, and strategy titles, there's been something for everyone. These ones below are the cream of the crop, though if you don't quite feel the same do leave us a comment below and let us know what you just loved. See/Saw Get it on the App Store A rather unusual platforming game, See/Saw runs along the same vein as Super Meat Boy and the like, though with its own style entirely. It's the ultimate game of sacrifice where sometimes you've just…
Here's what you missed last week on Pocket Gamer's YouTube channel
Hello and happy Tuesday, one and all. It's been a minute since I last blathered on here on AppSpy and figured it might be a good idea to catch you guys up on what our/Pocket Gamer's YouTube channel had been up to last week. Since it was a flurry of Thanksgiving and Black Friday sales, it was pretty busy over on Pocket Gamer last week, so sorry about my absence. Good ol' James has had you well covered though with a variety of videos for your viewing pleasure. Bill and Ted's Wyld Stallyns You might have seen this game creep out a couple of weeks back, but now that James has gotten his hands on it you can see what it's like up-close and personal. Er, we wish we could tell you that it's the g…
