It’s time to take a look at all the new iOS game releases of the past 7 days, and showing great disrespect for our backlogs, the App Store has churned out yet another massive list of new games this week. Some of the highest profile games launched earlier this week, like GRID Autosport, GNOG, and Game Dev Tycoon, but there’s still a ton of brand new stuff to pick through in this week’s batch. Plus I reached back extra deep to snag a few late stragglers from last week’s releases. Plenty to pick through, that’s for sure! So give the full list of games below a gander and let us know which games have your attention this week.
