Kalahari Sun Slots Review
Kalahari Sun is a slot machine app available for the iphone and ipod touch. Starting with only $500 you must test your luck to better your bankroll. The controls for this game are fiddly and it is difficult to pinpoint certain options in the menu. The increase and decrease bet buttons are quite small and if you gamble your winnings at the roulette table then accurately placing a bet becomes difficult if not impossible. Where this game fails in functionality it makes up for in the vis…

TETRIS® Review
Is there a gamer alive who hasn't played Tetris? It's been ported to every system imaginable, and now with touch controls, EA have brought it to the iPhone. The goal is the same as always. One of seven shaped blocks will fall. You need to rotate and place them so that a line is created, and then erased. The more lines erased, the faster the game gets. If the blocks reach the top, game over. At first glance, the touch controls seemed like a bad idea. Wouldn't tilting the iPhone be bett…
