Games (10000 programs)

Pros: Upgrade buildings as you progress. Does not punish short-episodic play. Win up to 30 in-game trophies. Each episode has its own story.

Cons: Demands you promote them on Facebook to progress through levels. Massive amounts of waiting and grinding. The cartoon-graphic styling looks dated and slightly pixelated. Some final-enemy battles are very similar.

Pros: Keeps your brain in shape. Great way to pass the time. Uses minimal resources. Easy to use interface.

Cons: Can be addictive. Built in dictionary needs a little improvement. Interface appears somewhat dated. Limited OS compatability.

Pros: Tricky and becomes addictive after a while. Shot strength has an effect on the result. Rebounds and surface impacts adds layers to the gameplay. Complex enough to allow trick shots and lucky shots.

Pros: Multiple difficulties. Good AI gameplay. Satisfying sounds. Smooth graphics.

Cons: Clicking issues. Limited multiplayer. No board size options. Few achievements.

Pros: Cartoon graphics and color selection is very professionally done. The overall story is silly and cute. Musical scores are joyful even if a little cliché. The comedy is child friendly.

Cons: Not very dynamic gameplay. Only 64 puzzles unless you upgrade. The auto-solve function makes cheating too easy. Limited help manual.

Pros: Interesting, fairytale-based storyline. Accessible to new and returning players. Makes effective use of puzzles and collectibles. Artwork is aesthetically pleasing.

Cons: User interface is a bit messy. Audio quality is inconsistent at times. Can become repetitive. Growth can be slow at times.

Cons: Very similar to lots of other hidden object games. Perhaps too eerie for smaller children. Certain puzzles can be repetitive. Little replay value.

Pros: Graphics are appealing. Scoring system is innovative. Gameplay is easy to learn. Suitable for all ages.

Cons: Storyline is very simple. Experienced puzzle gamers may find it too easy. Higher levels require in-app purchases. Gameplay can get repetitive.

Pros: Interesting plot and characters. Beautifully illustrated scenes. Short play time. Strong voice acting.

Cons: Confusing if you haven't played the first game. Little real innovation. Low overall difficulty. Short playing time.

Pros: 'Bookworms' will love testing themselves against the game's puzzles. Colourful backgrounds with a charming lead worm by your side. More than 400 different levels, while committed players may find the 60 hidden levels. Compete against other players with a ranking at the end of each level.

Cons: Levels prove to be very similar throughout. Little increase in difficulty as you progress. Essentially colourful versions of word games you can already play elsewhere. Only real difference from other Word Wow games are the background textures.
