Review BadBumble By Andrew Nesvadba, 14 years, 7 months ago
Solitaire Siege Review

Solitaire games are practically married to mobile phones. It's a partnership that makes sense as they're just digital versions of games almost everyone learns to play in one form or another. Solitaire Siege is BadBumble's take on Pyramid for the iPhone, adding new gameplay elements to keep the game interesting while also bundling the classic game and an arcade game as a bonus. As a simple card game, you only need to tap the cards on screen. This would be hard to mess up, but sometimes…

LUXOR Review

Review MumboJumbo By Andrew Nesvadba, 14 years, 7 months ago
LUXOR Review

They say that imitation is flattery, but when it comes to arcade marble-poppers LUXOR by MumboJumbo may not be an original concept, but this port to the iPhone is immediately fun and challenging; so what more could you ask for? There are three major schemes for controlling the marble-shooter, but sadly the two optional methods seem to exist more as a side-note, with neither one being practical for use. Your shooter can be smoothly dragged around the bottom of the screen, with vertical…

Timeloop Review

Review Connect2Media By Andrew Nesvadba, 14 years, 7 months ago
Timeloop Review

Puzzle games have always tried to remain entertaining by introducing game mechanics that are simple to grasp, but eventually complex to execute. This keeps a game tantalisingly fun to play, while scratching your brain in all the right places. TimeLoop challenges players to think fourth-dimensionally as you use copies of yourself to rescue the professor from each puzzling room. Each room is navigated by your hapless robot called Nik by touching where he needs to go. This would sound ea…

Touch Magic Review

Captilising on the iPhone's strong ability to render 3D environments, ClickGamers's approach to puzzle solving will make you think like no other puzzle game has before. The goal of Touch Magic is to re-assemble a jumbled object by arranging each pixel to re-form it. Each object is arranged on a 3D plane so that from one perspective it looks correct and from another it looks like a pixelated mess. At the start of each round you are shown what the object looks like, for example, a pictu…
