Well then, read on for some tasty gaming slices.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">They Need to be Fed (Android &amp; iOS)<\/h3>\n<p>In \u201cThey Need to be Fed\u201d, there are some \u201cinsanely cute monsters\u201d that are starving and thus, need to be fed. Your goal is to collect diamonds (which unlock new worlds) as fast as possible and, to then jump into the mouth of a sweet little monster. How adorable.<\/p>\n<p>You are hampered by moving blocks, spiky traps, and delightfully wacky level layouts. It\u2019s fun, but the controls can make it slightly frustrating at times.<\/p>\n<p>They Need to be Fed will cost you $0.99 <a title=\"They Need to be Fed\" href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/they-need-to-be-fed\/id402181349?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\">on iOS<\/a> and $1.10 <a title=\"They Need to be Fed\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.yoyogames.droidtntbf&amp;hl=en\" target=\"_blank\">on Android<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/hTIiLrH87gw?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"437\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Cut the Rope Experiments (Android &amp; iOS)<\/h3>\n<p>Cut the Rope was a fun game. It\u2019s a physics puzzler wherein you have to get candy from one point to a cute critter called Omnom. You do this by, well, cutting ropes. There are, of course, other tools to help you, like air blowers and pulleys, but mostly it\u2019s about the ropes.<\/p>\n<p>Cut the Rope Experiments carries on in the same vein as the original. Your missions stays the same, but there are some new twists to the puzzles and loads of fun to be had.<\/p>\n<p>At the low price of $0.99 on both <a title=\"Cut The Rope Experiments\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.zeptolab.ctrexperiments.google.paid\" target=\"_blank\">Android<\/a> and <a title=\"Cut The Rope Experiments\" href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/cut-the-rope-experiments\/id450542233?mt=8\" target=\"_blank\">iOS<\/a> there are few reasons for you not to give Cut the Rope Experiments a go.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/snAYeGD437s?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"335\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Colosseum (Android)<\/h3>\n<p>In Colosseum, you play a Gladiator who has to hack, chop, and slash his way from one side of the arena to the other. Along the way you collect coins and temporary powerups. The former can be used to upgrade your equipment and buy new weapons after each level.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s fun for a while, but the levels and enemies change too infrequently for it to hold your attention for very long. Nevertheless, at $0.99 it\u2019ll hardly set your wallet on fire, and it\u2019s <a title=\"Colosseum\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=com.Cocosoft.Colosseum\" target=\"_blank\">worth checking out<\/a> if you have nothing else to play.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_35544\" style=\"width: 522px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Colosseum-screenshot.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-35544\" class=\"size-full wp-image-35544\" title=\"Colosseum screenshot\" src=\"http:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Colosseum-screenshot.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"307\" srcset=\"https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Colosseum-screenshot.jpg 512w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Colosseum-screenshot-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/mygaming.co.za\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Colosseum-screenshot-250x149.jpg 250w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-35544\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Colosseum<\/p><\/div>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Node.hack (Android &amp; iOS)<\/h3>\n<p>In Node.hack, you play a hacker, represented by a simple circle, in a field of square shaped nodes. Your goal is to move from one node to the next to \u201ccollect\u201d funds while avoiding the enemy AI, and eventually exit before the network self-destructs.<\/p>\n<p>The interface is simple, which means that you can spend less time figuring it out and more time finding safe routes. However, the difficulty ramps up fairly quickly, so you\u2019ll have to bring your A-game from the start.<\/p>\n<p>One slight annoyance, is that (on Android at least) Open Feint pops up after every level. Hopefully the developer looks into this mildly infuriating behaviour.<\/p>\n<p>You can grab Node.Hack for $0.99 from both <a title=\"Node.hack\" href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/apps\/details?id=node.hack\" target=\"_blank\">Google Play<\/a> and the <a title=\"Node.hack\" href=\"http:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/app\/node.hack\/id505066856?mt=8http:\/\/\" target=\"_blank\">App Store<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/4jkTtniCn7g?rel=0\" frameborder=\"0\" width=\"600\" height=\"335\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Have you played any good mobile games lately?
