Best iPhone and iPad games this week!!!!!
Supernauts has been a long time coming: the first game from hotly-tipped Finnish publisher Grand Cru. It's a little bit Minecraft, in the way you craft buildings from raw materials, with elements of city-building and resource management games. You build a space-base, complete missions to rescue Earthlings, and play and chat with friends over the network. Early days, but this could be a big hit.

Wartune: Hall of Heroes (Free + IAP)
I was once given a demo of Wartune at a press event held by publisher Kabam, by someone who'd unlocked pretty much everything in this massively-multiplayer game that blends battles with city-building. It looked mind-bogglingly baffling, but playing from the start opens up its features at a manageable pace. It's still hardcore, but looks worth the investment in time (and, yes, in in-app purchases should you so desire).

Enigma Express (Free + IAP)
Over to British developer Relentless, for its latest polished hidden-object game. You have to search locations around the world for various objects, enjoying the scenery, storyline and music along the way. It's neatly integrated with Apple's AirPlay – this genre works very well projected onto a TV screen with nearby friends or family members helping (or, indeed, hindering you).
