I didn’t wait in line for my new iPhone 4, I had it shipped to my apartment. So I missed out on all of the cool Apple chatter while waiting in line for hours only to see the smiling people walking by me with their new phones. But my day waiting for the UPS delivery person wasn’t a picnic either. They didn’t show up until 3 p.m. so I was stuck at home for most of the day...
Who doesn’t like puzzle games? Better yet, who doesn’t like a lot of distinct puzzles wrapped up in one game? Well Ancient Puzzles HD is exactly that, a collection of 12 different games, some are familiar and some are quite the opposite...
Soccer games seem ubiquitous during this year’s World Cup. However, it may just be because it’s the world’s most popular sport. This game comes to us with a bit of a different take than the others we have reviewed. In fact, Football Agent could just as well be called stock market trader or baseball agent. Though it has a soccer motif, it’s really about buying low and selling high and doing so as fast as possible. I like the idea of the game but as someone that lives for the details, I was disappointed in how few there are...
Inspired by the real life group of mobile racing enthusiasts, Rocket Racing League straps players into a virtual unmanned racing unit for a wild series of twists, turns, and breakneck speeds. A departure from the futuristic and wartime dog fighting titles, this is built around more traditional racing modes such as arcade, drag, and laps. With gorgeous 3D backdrops and a pulsating soundtrack, Rocket Racing League is tough to beat for the next best high powered issue in speedy competition...
Jake is known throughout the god-fearing world as what game they have to play when they are bad. Or at least it should be. While the basic gameplay itself isn't too offensive, albeit extremely repetitive, the sound as well as the lack of any innovation causes this game to be more annoying than fun...
Attack & Destroy is a strategic turn-based game where you control and lead a small three member team into battle. Your team can consist of a shotgun toting Grunt, a sneaky Sniper, a Technician with toys, and a quick moving Scout. Each character has special powers that can be used every other turn, for example; the Grunt has a forward charge that increases his speed, the Scout can reveal hidden landmines, the Sniper can turn invisible, and the Technician can set up gun turrets. Obviously the trick is that each one of these team members brings something different to each battle so you have to choose wisely when creating a team for each specific mission...
I’m not sure I've ever seen an iPhone/iPod Touch game like Mr. Kubus before and if I have then it obviously didn’t leave an impact. This 2D left to right scroller is a mix between a puzzler and a strategy game. The object of the game is to reach the finish line with as many red hearts as possible. As you move through the level you can gather hearts, and also lose them by running into obstacles...
If you have an iPhone 3G, 3GS or iPod Touch 3rd generation, today is the big day; it's the launch of the iPhone OS 4 (otherwise now known as iOS 4). This upgrade has all of the crazy contraptions you are looking for in a new OS and the best part is - it is entirely free. For those of you with a 3G or older iPhone through, a bit of bad news - multitasking, along with several of the other new additions in the iOS 4 update, have not been implemented...
