It’s getting closer and closer to Christmas and the big iTunes freeze of 2015, but this week’s list of new iOS game releases is surprisingly slim compared to what we’ve been seeing lately. That’s not a bad thing necessarily, as I’m sure we’ve all come down with a case of Backlogitis by this point in the year. Just because the list isn’t quite as long as usual doesn’t mean there aren’t a ton of great releases though. Aralon 2 has arrived and we’ve already dropped our review, and Groove Planet and Hooah! look to be the sleeper hits for me personally so far. We also should be seeing Rayman Adventures at some point, though it’s quite out in the US as of this posting. As always, let us know what games you’re picking up in the comments below!
