New iOS Game Releases This Week: September 19, 2013

Each week brings an absolute barrage of new games for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, but it can be difficult to pick out of the cream of the crop by looking at a mass of icons and titles. Luckily, we’re tuned in to the most notable releases, and we’ll be presenting a small stack of them with this column. Every single week, you’ll find a diverse array of free and paid games across a variety of genres, and we’ll highlight the unique aspects of each, as well as anything that seems like it might be a barrier to enjoyment.

Alongside the launch of iOS 7 comes a huge week for iOS gaming, marked by juggernaut franchise entries Infinity Blade III and Angry Birds Star Wars II, along with the Disney Infinity Toy Box and intriguing indie, Incredipede. Several notable free-to-play affairs are available this week, as well, including CastleVille Legends, Deer Hunter 2014, and DuckTales: Scrooge’s Loot. Be sure to keep an eye out for full reviews of some of these titles in the coming days, and then check back next Thursday for an all-new list of notable games to consider.
