Each week dozens of new gaming apps are released across the various mobile platforms, imaginative original works trying to build a name for themselves in a crowded market. Iām not saying Zaxxon Escape and Super Bunny Breakout arenāt fresh and entertainingātheyāve just got a bit of an unfair advantage.
Itās hard to not have a recognizable name in the mobile gaming space. Look at Lost Winds, one of the best interactive experiences on any platform. That Luke had to tell you all about it years after its release is sad.
Seriously, get it. Itās wonderful.
As are Super Bunny Breakout, DJMax Ray and Forever Lost. Iām even enjoying the hell out of Zaxxon Escape, even if it does horrible things to that classic name itās using to move units.
If you have a suggestion for an app for the iPhone, iPad, Android or Windows Phone 7 that youād like to see highlighted, let us know.

LostWinds isnāt a new game. Itās been around for years, first on the Wii, then on iOS devices. Iām mentioning it again and now, though, because for a limited time itās suddenly free. MoreĀ Ā»

Minutes after booting up Forever Lost, I felt like Iād back in time. Here my protagonist was, waking up in what appeared to be a mental asylum, with no memory of who he (or she) was or how he (or she) got there. Single screens. A camera. Sliding-tile puzzles. Weird writing on the wall. A journal. You may not have been in this room before, but if youāve played many adventure games, youāve been in rooms like it. MoreĀ Ā»
Physics Make All the Difference in This Bunny-Based Breakout Game
I would have been perfectly happy if Super Bunny Breakout, a collaboration between Atari and Zynga, were nothing more than the original Breakout with a vaguely rabbit-looking ball. Luckily for everyone else, itās so much more than that. MoreĀ Ā»
Zaxxon Returns with an Ordinary Escape

There had never been anything like Zaxxon when it released. At the time, kids considered it the first 3D game, even if it achieved that look through isometric projection. Still, it communicated sophistication, technology and, to an 8-year-old, difficulty. MoreĀ Ā»
