Tap Master I Review

Review Revoc Technologies, LLC By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 7 months ago
Tap Master I Review

When a developer from Revoc Technologies contacted us about Tap Master I, he was adamant that this game, as simple as it may seem, was extremely addictive. Skeptical as I was of the usual PR pitch, he wasn't kidding; there's something bizarrely addictive about trying to out-do yourself and others at even simple tasks. Tap Master I packs five different 'tap' themed games that are quick and easy to play, but getting that top score isn't easy. It's hard to call these games, but thanks to…

Green Jump Review

Review Scanovate LTD By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 8 months ago
Green Jump Review

Much like the boldness displayed by the creators of Veggie Samurai, Baboonix have developed a rather blatant Doodle Jump clone in Green Jump - the first official game for Greenpeace on the App Store. But it's not entirely without merit as Green Jump keeps things simple and most importantly, fun. Players need only to tilt their device to help slide their green crusader around as he jumps off clouds to escape the rising smog. As you climb in to the stratosphere you can collect letters t…

Pix'n Love Rush Review

Review Bulkypix By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 9 months ago
Pix'n Love Rush Review

Retro-appeal has continued to remain in vogue for some time now and Pix'n Love Rush by Bulkypix hopes to cash in on your collection of platforming tropes while exploring some of gaming's more 'unique' visual styles from the last three decades. Players are thrown in to a world with very simple rules, with bonuses slowly adding to your combo meter, while any mistake made will slash you down a combo level. This sounds like a harsh deal, however even moderately skilled gamers who have pla…

2XL TROPHYLITE Rally Review

Review 2XL Games, Inc. By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 9 months ago
2XL TROPHYLITE Rally Review

2XL Games are no stranger to the odd sports racing title on the App Store and are well known for their visual quality and smooth controls. So it almost goes without saying that if you're a fan of their previous titles, 2XL TROPHYLITE Rally might already tickle your fancy. There are three major control schemes to choose from, with left and right variants for two of these and coupled with 2XL's steering assist you'll be clocking times like a professional in no time. The tilt-based optio…

Qwak Review

Review Mr Qwak Limited By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 9 months ago
Qwak Review

As an Amiga owner, I felt terribly ashamed to admit to developer Jamie Woodhouse that I'd never had a chance to play his game Qwak when it was released in 1993. However, as a title that was released by Team 17 in a budget bundle it was never given the chance it truly deserved. Thankfully, Qwak is now out on the App Store and after over 20 years this title has finally found a place it can shine. Unlike most puzzle platformers, Qwak features fast paced gameplay that rewards quick thinki…

Exodus Review

Review Tip Tap Games By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 9 months ago
Exodus Review

It's hard not to make the comparison between Exodus by Tip Tap Games and other line drawing management games like Flight Control, but you'd be selling this game short if you thought it was just a simple draw-and-forget title. You'll need to manage various ships as they drop off their payload of colonists to various space-stations around the universe and you'll need keen timing to make use of the limited docking space and avoid environmental hazards out to ruin your day. Once a ship is…

Truckers Delight: Episode 1 Review

Review Mobigame By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 10 months ago
Truckers Delight: Episode 1 Review

If you haven't run in to the viral sensation of 'Truckers Delight' then it might help to quickly go watch this hilarious animation first (warning very NSFW). Now that you're back or already know about the amusing tale of Jack and his attempts to pursue the Alpha Chick you'll be prepared for the madness of Mobigame's 'Truckers Delight: Episode 1'. Much like the start of the animation, Episode 1 takes place on an American desert highway as Jack chases down the Alpha Chick in an endless…

Poodle Invasion Review

Review frederico machuca By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 10 months ago
Poodle Invasion Review

You're a green blob, poodles are invading... somewhere and while you're falling from space you'll dodge and blow up the invaders while munching down on the occasional sushi. Throw in some pixel-art and some chip-tune music and you've got Poodle Invasion by Frederico Machuca. Incoming poodles can be avoided by tilting your iDevice left or right, while a destructive force-field can be deployed around your green blob by double tapping the screen. There's a bit of momentum to contend with…

Crazy Test - Simple, Addictive, Fun! Review

Review Tactile Games ApS By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 10 months ago
Crazy Test - Simple, Addictive, Fun! Review

Crazy Test by Tactile Entertainment tries its hand at micro-games, attempting to out-crazy the forerunner of this new style of gaming, WarioWare. Despite its overwhelming obsession with cats, Crazy Test is a madcap title that's hard not to smile at while playing - besides, how often do you get to hit a lazy panda with a slingshot? In true micro-game style, each game uses a different set of controls, varying from shaking the iPhone to make a bottle of soda explode to erasing thought bu…

StarCannon Review

Review Jagex By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 11 months ago
StarCannon Review

Jagex Game Studio, better known for their great selection of free games online have recently released a port of their popular shoot'em-up title 'StarCannon' for the iPhone. Strangely, something seems to have been lost in translation and this title bears very little resemblance to the game's progenitor. Like most recent shoot'em-ups, StarCannon uses a touch and drag system to control the player's ship. Firing is automatic while touching the screen and the ship will automatically steer…

Vertigo Rogue Review

Review Brainphant By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 11 months ago
Vertigo Rogue Review

Vertigo Rogue is a mammoth achievement for independent developer Brainphant for two major reasons. Firstly, the game weighs in at an incredibly small 5.4 megabytes; and secondly, much like the Tardis of Doctor Who fame, you'll marvel at just how comprehensively huge this game is. Vertigo Rogue is a top-down shooter in the same vein as the original GTA series and brings a whole lot of explosive fun to your fingertips. The first major obstacle to conquer is the game's controls. Vertigo…

Babeorella Review

Review doublesix By Andrew Nesvadba, 13 years, 11 months ago
Babeorella Review

Babeorella by doublesix knows its audience and much like Daisy Mae of the Alien Buffet, she's a spicy heroine that's not afraid to put her body on the line. Jane Fonda references aside, Babeorella is an endless action brawler that tries hard to keep your attention in almost any way possible. Movement is controlled by an analogue stick while attacks are grouped in to three buttons for variety. Two buttons are used for light and heavy attacks, with three variations available to each dep…

Artilect Pro Review

Review Yuri Brigance By Dave Flodine, 14 years ago
Artilect Pro Review

Artilect by Atomic Cactus is a puzzle game in which you take turns against a human or AI controlled opponent, trying to change the colour of orbs to reach your opponent's goal. It's also very difficult as the AI is brutal even on the early stages. What then is it, that makes this game so hard to put down? Control is all touch based. Each level consists of green orbs between the two goals, with the game starting in the middle. Upon touching a green orb, you change it to your colour, dr…

Sailboat Championship PRO Review

Do you fancy yourself nautically minded? Do you watch the America's Cup every year? If so, i assume you're a fan of sailing, and if that is the case, you should probably check out Sailboat Championship Pro, a game where you must control your yacht around a course in order to achieve the fastest lap times possible. There are multiple levels of control from manning the sails, to steering, but you can have the computer handle the sails while you concentrate on catching the wind. These co…

Chromixa Review

Chromixa Review

Chromixa began life as an art installation based on creator Simon Watson's fascination with light. A handful of development time later and we have a light based puzzle game for the iphone. The goal is to create shapes of a solid colour out of overlaying smaller pieces of different colours, much like a jigsaw. Control is all touch and drag. Upon touching a piece, it can be dragged anywhere on screen or the large wheel can be used to rotate it. If you ever get confused about which colou…
