Out Now: ‘Bloodstroke’, ‘Dawn of the Plow’, ‘Lego Star Wars Microfighters’, ‘Fish Bowl Roll’ and More

TouchArcade Rating:

It’s that time of week again where a ton of new iOS games hit the US App Store and the rest of the world. Pretty decent size list, with some stuff I’ve been looking forward to for a while and some stuff I didn’t even know about until today but am already excited about. Unfortunately, it doesn’t look like Final Fantasy VI will be hitting tonight, despite them mentioning it in the App Description of FFIV: The After Years during its recent sale. Also Dungeon Keeper should be exiting Canadian soft-launch status tonight, but it hasn’t happened yet as of this posting so we’ll let you know whenever it does.
