The last episode of "Ravenmark: Scourge of Estellion" reminds us that all good things come to an end — and when the end is this good, you know you're looking at something that will be remembered as a classic.
In so many ways, “Chrono Trigger” serves as a wake-up call and a benchmark for the quality iOS RPG developers need to strive for from now on. Sadly it falls flat on its face in the interface department, which will leave frustrated new players wondering what all the fuss was about in the first place.
It doesn't cure cancer and it may not even be a flawless game, but Mission Europa is hands-down the meatiest iDevice title we've played in either the Action RPG or First Person Shooter genres.

See how you can score iFanzine's in-game loot at the end of the review!
EA's Dead Space, not only one of the best looking and best made games yet to grace iOS but also the outright scariest, is likely to have you squirming anxiously, jumping like a jack rabbit and shrieking in terror, as developers IronMonkey Studios expertly meld psychological horror with grisly, high-octane action to absolutely nerve-shredding effect.
