Puzzle and Dragons exploded onto the scene in 2012 and firmly established the "collectible puzzle RPG" genre on mobile phones.

In this article, I'll round up my favorite entries in this genre and give you my top 5 games like Puzzle and Dragons.
Return to "The Inventory" - a mystical place where your favorite characters go to relax between installments of their franchises. Here, no-limit Texas Hold'em is the name of the game.

I'll share my full impressions during this Titanfall review, focused on the Xbox 360 edition!

It isn't all that often that a game comes along that is simple, fun, and new. This is doubly true for the mobile platforms, a [red ocean](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Ocean_Strategy# Concept) constantly stained with the blood of competition. When I first encountered new legendary games like Where's My Water, Cut the Rope, or the 800 lb gorilla Angry Birds I was immensely impressed by the simple fun they conveyed. They represent what mobile gaming is supposed to be about - entertaining gameplay experienced in new encapsulated way that you can pick up and play, but will keep you coming back for more.
