Draw Something Free and Dofus: Battles 2 are the top-reviewed iPhone games for April
If you were wondering what the best-reviewed iPhone games on the web last month were, here's the iPhone Quality Index round-up for April to fill you in.

The iPhone Quality Index boasts over 200,000 reviews from websites like 148Apps, Pocket Gamer, and iPlayApps, and uses a unique metric to create a single definitive score for each iPhone title.

As a clear illustration of the franchise's success, the gratis version of scribbling sensation Draw Something has shot to the top of April's iPhone Qi chart, proving that although login figures for OMGPOP's Pictionary-esque title may be on the wane, the critical consensus remains overwhelmingly positive.

Elsewhere, tower ATTACK game Dofus: Battles 2 has fought its way into second place, with discerning critics uniting behind its unique brand of genre-defying monster madness.

Of course, the only thing that appeals to people as much as monsters is cats, which might explain the 9.1 Qi rating match-three puzzler Kitten Sanctuary has managed to attain over the past four weeks.

N.B. While we only display the average score to one decimal place, the list is generated to further significant figures. We just don't show them all.

And, naturally, this is a static graph based on live listings which are subject to constant change as new releases and reviews emerge.

In order to provide a regular marker of the critical zeitgeist, however, we will continue to round up the best of the iPhone games released each month to provide the definitive Quality Index top ten.
