Why us
Battery and size
How much space it takes and how quickly it drains a phone — both are in the review.
Offline first
Every review says plainly whether the game works on a plane or a train without signal.
Ads and purchases, measured
We count how often ads interrupt play and what the paid version actually removes.
We finish what we start
A review only goes up after at least a week with the game, not after ten minutes of the tutorial.

Simulation
Run a small bakery through one night. Short shifts, warm art, no energy bar.
★★★★☆ 4.0
Puzzle
Rebuild broken radio circuits. Hard from the start and honest about it.
★★★★★ 4.5
Strategy
Draw delivery lines across a growing town. Quiet, clever and unforgiving later on.
★★★★☆ 4.0
Cards
Classic card games with a decent offline opponent and no forced online play.

Puzzle
Tile Harbour
★★★★★ 4.5
Tile Harbour is the rare match puzzle that does not push you towards a purchase every second screen. Levels are short, the difficulty curve is gentle for the first fifty stages and then turns properly demanding.
- Works fully offline
- No timers between levels
- One-off purchase removes ads
- About 180 MB installed

Questions & answers
How do you choose what to review?
Readers suggest most of them by email. The rest come from what we see people playing around us.
Do you review paid games?
Yes, and we prefer them. A game you pay for once usually treats your attention better than a free one.
Can I republish your reviews?
A short quote with a link is fine. For anything longer, write to us first.
Do you accept payment for reviews?
No. We buy every game and every in-app purchase we write about, and we do not run sponsored posts.
