Welcome to Click-Swipe-Play<\/a>, Softonics new gaming show<\/strong>. I am going to bring you three reviews in under three minutes – and then make sure that you are primed for next week\u2019s big games.<\/p>\n

And as if to celebrate the first show, every game this week is great<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

I start with the classic Final Fantasy VII<\/a>, which has just been released on iOS allowing you to play on the move\u00a0the game that popularized the Japanese RPG genre in the West<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The retro racer<\/strong> Horizon Chase<\/a> is my second choice. If you ever played Outrun then this game should be instantly familiar, yet it also has a stack of intelligent updates for mobile gaming.<\/p>\n

My last game this week is the brilliant Volume<\/a>, a stealthy puzzle game with a striking art style<\/strong>. The game’s abstract environments allow for lots of visual clues to aid your escapades, remove the vagaries that so often ruin the genre.<\/p>\n

And we wrap up with a reminder of next week\u2019s releases<\/strong>, including Metal Gear Solid V and Lara Croft GO.<\/p>\n
