4There's plenty of fishing fun to be had in this great little virtual angler
Fishing Kings Review
by on February 3, 2012
Fishing is a wonderful thing, but in theory, a videogame of the sport should be the dullest grind in the world. Not so. Like golf, fishing games are bizarrely compelling and Fishing Kings is a pretty good addition to the proud tradition of virtual angling.
After choosing your angler you wander out to a picturesque stretch of water to take part in competitions, thus unlocking new items of tackle, earning fish bucks for upgrades and opening up fishing venues. Casting out and wrestling with fish is achieved by waggling the phone; reeling in takes a swirl of the thumb.
Hitting your angling goals is, oddly, a hugely satisfying experience.

Ragdoll Blaster 3
The iOS equivalent of a plain cheese sandwich: does the job, but it won't linger in the memory afterwards.
iPhone
Puckerz
One for those with a careless bent, and perfect for when you want to play a game but not do any thinking.
iPad
Pulse: Volume One
Stylish, absorbing and challenging, but needs Game Center support and an injection of longevity and jolly.
iPad
Procreate
Some hugely impressive tools and an interface ideal for artists make this a great painting app.
iPhone
Print n share
Difficult to set up, but once you’ve got it working, it offers a great range of print options.
iPad
Prince of Persia: Warrior Within HD
Control issues aside, Warrior Within really is a magnificent sequel.

Full of style and a surprising amount of substance

pxl.
The interface feels a bit out of place on iOS, but it’s a fun app, and produces interesting results.
Puzzlejuice
Absurdly challenging, sometimes brutal, but frequently brilliant (especially on the iPad); just be aware of what you’re letting yourself in for. (Sob.)
