iOS (iPhone/iPad) Critic Reviews

I'm definitely enjoying Wreck-It Ralph so far, and I think that it's a great price for three games (one dollar gets you three games that would probably cost a dollar each). The graphics are great, and all of the games are simple, pick-up-and-play games that you can easily kill a few minutes with.

In navigating the tension between reverence for something old in a new package, Disney have done a wonderful job at delivering an experience that deftly straddles nostalgia and novelty. Next time you're in the mood for some great pint-sized play, save your bag of quarters. You only need four.

We said this about Fix-It Felix, Jr., but this is actually the game you should play before you go to see the movie.

Disney could've put more effort into the app, but as it stands, this retro-flavored effort knows its roots.

Wreck-It Ralph works well as a nostalgic arcade compilation with potential for lots of shorter gaming sessions.

Overall, as a tool to wet your appetite for the movie's release, Wreck-It Ralph does a good job of offering up some decent gameplay, especially when compared to other blatant movie or product tie-ins out there. It's a little inconsistent in its quality, both in content and visuals. But, the star of this compilation is undoubtedly Fix-It Felix, which even as a standalone title would be worth a $0.99 punt.

A trip back to the bad old days of mediocre film tie-ins, Wreck-it Ralph isn't abysmal, but it's unlikely it'll keep you entertained for very long.

That being said, the improvements aren't enough to make it worth a purchase over the free version that was already available, making Wreck-It Ralph a difficult game to recommend.
