TouchArcade Rating:

It’s pretty darn common to see new games trickle out well after our weekly Out Now post, and this week was no different. Gone are the days of iOS games releasing (mostly) like clockwork. The latecomers this week are numerous and noteworthy enough that we figured we’d round them up for you here, and even though we’ve written about a few of these individually already we threw ’em in for the sake of completion. So make sure you’ve visited the first Out Now post from this week and grabbed any of the new games that caught your eye, but check out this selection as well and make sure you’ve got plenty to play over the weekend.
