Peter Molyneux and 22Cans have released their long-awaited app, Curiosity - what's inside the cube. It's not so much a game as it is a social experiment, to see what the power of curiosity can accomplish. So the question is, dear reader --- are you curious?

3D platform games have always been problematic for me. I was cool with Tomb Raider on PC because I could just tap the arrow keys to incrementally inch along the cliffs. When Nintendo 64 came out with their sensitive analog stick, I just couldn’t make it through Super Mario 64 without accidentally wandering off every ledge.

Coin Army is a strange little arcade game from Chillingo and Crazy Monkey Studios.

Mobage’s Rage of Bahamut had TCG (Trading Card Game) fans all a flutter. Their latest offering is Deity Wars. Though this is hardly the worst example of a trading card game out there, Deity Wars is going to frustrate the heck out of you if you're new to the TCG genre.
