| 9th |  | ResonanceResonance is an admirable but frustrating adventure game that asks big questions of you, but doesn't bother listening to your answers.

| 8th |  | Paper Mario: Sticker StarPaper Mario: Sticker Star's vibrant, buoyant world marries so well with the script's deliciously wry take on Mario's classic tropes. It's just a real shame that the rest of the game feels paper thin.

| 6th |  | Ghost TrickGhost Trick is well worth the price of admission, but sadly the game lets itself down with its overall simplicity and the disappointment of its crucial final act. | Our Score7

| 5th |  | Professor Layton and the Miracle MaskLayton is a good distance removed from the hysteria that surrounded his debut title, then, but the fifth game in this stylised series is enough to keep you entertained.

| 4th | | BotaniculaUtterly lovely, although certainly imperfect, Botanicula is a game filled with soul and bursting with imagination. As you click your way to victory, it'll be hard to stop grinning.
